Could you provide more detail on how to add the standard progress bar to a spreadsheet. Very little information on the webpage. Would be interested in an example of how it can be implemented into code (very simple example would be sufficient - just to see how to implement it into a Do Loop. Many thanks in advance and best regards,

Christian

RE: Excel VBA

Hi Christian

Thankyou fpr your question.

Could you please clarify what you mean by standard progress bar.

Are you refering to an indicator showing how complete a task is?

RE: Excel VBA

Hi Christian

Thank you for your question, and the following update.

Creating a procedure that runs a time elapsed bar would be a complex undertaking, perhaps using the Timer Function. You would also need some way to objectively measure progress on a particular task, e.g number of records assessed in a recordset.

Creating such a procedure is beyond the scope of the forum, however it might be possible to download some code from the web that would do this for you. I suggest a google search as a first step.

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Wrapping Text in a Cell in an Excel 2010 Workbook

When you have a lot of text you want to put in a particular cell but you can't decrease the font size to fit because the text will then become ineligible, then manually wrap the text in a cell by simply pressing ALT+ENTER.
