    Macro Loading Bar ??

    Hey Guys,


    Has anyone ever added a macro loading bar into their macros to see how much proccessing its got left to do ?
    Or would it defeat the point and just take the macro even longer ?

    I use a whole bunch of macro's to sort through 50,000 plus points of data, half the time I'm lead to believe my macro has crashed but I can never really know?


    Are macro loading bars possible ?

    Hello excel_joel,

    A solution might be possible. You should post the macro for review.

    Hello excel_joel,

    So, you wanted to improve the execution speed, not necessarily show the progress made. No constantly updating the screen will definitely improve the execution speed.
