Progress bar while running macro
Hi ,
here attached my macro. i need to hide things happening while running macro and need to display progress bar till complete the macro.
can anyone help me to do this
Ravindu94 Had a quick look at your set of macros. I suspect that many of them are straight recordings without any clean-up performed. I notice numerous unnecessary scroll commands, select something, do nothing, select something else, format something and then format the same selection again etc. It really needs cleaning-up. Can't really test any of it, as you link to files on your own system.
The button on your first sheet starts up a sub called "CommandButton1_Click()". I've inserted the code I suggested in my previous post. You'll need to copy the Statusbar piece before each of the following calls and increase the step number by one (I've done two for you). Note that the Statusbar gives visual feedback in the bottom left-hand side of the screen.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Application.Screenupdating = False GetFile1 Application.Statusbar = "Step 1 of 22 completed" Macro1 Application.Statusbar = "Step 2 of 22 completed" GetFile2 Macro2 Macro3 DeleteBlankRows Macro4 Macro5 Macro6 Macro7 Macro8 Macro10 Macro11 GetFile2 Macronext1 Macronext2 Macronext3 Macro1next Macro2next Macro3next Macro4next summery Application.Screenupdating = True End SubIf you insist on using a UserForm, use Google to find detailed instructions. It's not something I'm familiar with. Sorry!

To toggle screen updating off and on during execution, insert Application.Screenupdating = False of Application.Screenupdating = True in your code where needed.
To display progress, and provided you have some kind of counter (e.g. Step .... of 5000), you could use something like Application.Statusbar = "Step " & counter & " of 5000 completed"
