Hi,

I'd like to do the following:

  1. Add a button to an Excel spreadsheet.
  2. When I click the button, it automatically starts to increment cell B2 (for example) from 0 to 100, and back again, in an endless loop.
  3. When I click the button again, the animation will stop.

How do I solve this problem?

Shane.

Unfortunately, this method won't work: while the animation is playing, the cursor turns into an hourglass, which stops you using Excel.Is there a way to run code in a thread from Excel?
