Hi Folks

I have an application wich using an ontime procedure to schedule a
refresh task - updating cells with external data.
That takes a 30 seconds and a userform with a progressbar is shown
while updating.
That works fine if only Excel application have focus.

My problem is that I want Excel to updata even if I have an other
application open and that other application is active. Say Word.

If I have overlapping windows .. Excel in background and word on top
-
I want the progressbar to show up in front of Excel but behind Word..
The progressbar schould be updated while refreshing data to the sheet.
The form schould then be closed in the end,
now tha data is refreshed properly.
Is that to be done?

Cheers
