Hi all,

I have a procedure that randomizes data until certain criteria are met


Those criteria are user-driven, and if they enter in criteria that ar
too "tight" it could take a very long time for the randomization loop
to compelte (and it's possible that they will NEVER compelte if th
criteria are set too high)

I'm using the status bar to show a loop count number (otherwise I hav
screenupdating set to false), but would like to instead have some sor
of message box that shows the current loop count value and a big fa
"Abort" button that lets the user stop the loop without usin
crtl-break

Is this even possible in excel VBA? If it matters, screenupdating mus
be false, else the time it takes to execute a loop is too dependant o
how fast the user's machine can redraw the data as it's randomized
