messagebox - Excel - Countdown Message box until Macro is Complete -
i have macro takes 45 seconds complete. when macro starts want countdown timer pop message box countdown until macro completion. have searched far cant find answers this. possible?
as @thrum correctly mentioned in comment not possible message box.
a msgbox
modal , therefore blocks entire excel application. nothing else can happen / done while message box window open , waits close it. actually, can make message boxes system-wide modal. in case no other windows application respond unless close little message box in excel (check option vbsystemmodal within vba regarding msgbox
).
however, forms on other hand have choice. can make form not modal.
userform1.show (false)
in case code continues run in background while form shown user , permits running vba code make changes form while shown user.
