how would I write a loop that would run until a certain time of day then
execute the rest of the macro.

Don't!

Use Ontime to execute another macro with the rest of the code in at the
specified time. See Chip's page at http://www.cpearson.com/excel/ontime.htm
for details how to use it.

Hi. For a similar case, I used a code like this:

' If it's later than 23:45, Wait till next day
TiempoPausa = 0
Inicio = 0
If Timer = 85500 Then
While Timer = 85500
DoEvents
Wend
' Wait until 00:05
While Timer <= 300
DoEvents
Wend
End If
Inicio = Timer
Your_routine ' Execute your code
' Wait 15 more minutes
Minutos = 15
TiempoPausa = 60 * Minutos
Do While Timer < Inicio + TiempoPausa
DoEvents ' Other procceses
Loop

Yo can use While to loopback to your code, if neccesary.

Thanks Leonardo, which one would I use to have it automatically run at 11:30
pm?
