    EXcel Quits Running Macro

    I have a large macro that I will run and leave the computer on and just let it complete it can take hours to do. The problem arises if I choose another window or another window pops up and becomes active the macro will stop running until I make excel the active window again and it will take off. How can i get it to run no matter if its the active window or not i am using Excel 2013.

    Thank you for your time.

    Could you run it in its own separate instance of Excel?
