Hello all

I am preparing a vb macro in excel in which I need to perform following
actions. Could any one please help me.

1. I need to take server name, user id and password from the user. Are
multiple inputs possible from a single Inputbox or I need to go for a user
form?

2. My application has to halt for 2 minutes at one stage and then proceed.
While my macro halts here, can I display a kind of dialogue which we see
while we do any software installations. A small window saying "Installation
in progress" with a white bar and a blue color ink slowly fills this white
bar, just to give an indication of % of process completed. This kind of
window I would like to use for showing this 2 minutes halt.

Thanks
Sri

You could take multiple inputs from the client via an InputBox & delimit
using the comma or some other symbol, but a userform is preferable as you can
password protect a textbox so the characters are not visible.
