I've just finished creating my VBA spreadsheet and while it's very useful and 'a bit of a beast' it's not so impressive to look at while running. I played around with turning screenupdating on and off and either way doesn't make much difference so was just wondering if anyone had any tips on making it look better?

I'm running windows 10 and even though it appears to hang (the status bar says Not Responding for a few seconds) it does run but the screen is mainly white and with the aforementioned unresponsive message to the casual observer it looks sloppy. It runs for about 8-10 secs in total.

I did read a thread about a progress bar but the example didn't work as my sub routine is to run several sub routines so I wasn't able to base it on just on one calculation.

Any tips to 'clean it up' would be appreciated as it's the finishing touchs to a very long and painstaking project.
 
I don't suppose you've got any tips on putting a progress bar in the middle of the screen. Would look proper impressive and be a great final touch.
