Hi I've looked around but I can't find a solution to this.
I've got a worksheet with the words "Loading.." and I've managed to get an animated .GIF using the webpage object method.
The Worksheet has a opening screen with a "start" button, the button at the moment has a macro that links to the first functional sheet, however I'd like to have this "loading" screen show up after I've clicked start and then move onto the first functional sheet after a set amount of seconds.
This is purely for aesthetics reasons, does anyone know how I can (after clicking a "start" macro) get a sheet to appear for a few seconds then move onto the functional sheet?
Thanks
