    Run the macro Mega_Start to start the timed interval of Mega and run Mega_Stop to stop it.

    Thanks for taking out time to help me out. Unfortunately I don't understand the VBA system and am only too ignorant to understand your sophisticated code. Can you please correct the file attached and upload so that the working of the code may really become automated once the start button is pressed ( only to be stopped by the stop button !). At present it only works if the start button is pressed.
    Thanks again

    At present , the macro does not work automatically ( which was the basic idea). Can anyone help using the file Timer macro Mega attached above ? The timer should act on its own once triggered by the button. Thanks !
