Need a "Please Wait" Box to appear when macro runs and disappear when it ends

[caliskier]

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is a way to add "Please wait, protecting sheets" in a form or message box that automatically appears when this macro starts and disappears when it completes

It works for me - have you got a cell selected on the sheet?

Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

Remember to desensitize the data.
