Hello All,

Does anyone know of a way to instruct a messagebox to close automatically after X number of seconds instead of a user actually clicking on the OK button?

thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
Yes, try the following:

Code:
Sub foo()
Dim WScript As Object
Set WScript = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WScript.Popup "One", 1, "Microsoft Excel"
WScript.Popup "Two", 2, "Microsoft Excel"
WScript.Popup "Three", , "Microsoft Excel"
Set WScript = Nothing
End Sub
