Hi everyone!

I would appreciate it very much if someone could share some code which will start a two minute cycle when a workbook is opened.

This workbook will check a data source as soon as it is opened. I would like to make it able to repeat this task every two minutes.

Thanks!

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Hi TS Tom - how's this?

Code:
Dim lngTimesMacroRan As Long

Sub CheckDataSource()
'Put your macro for checking the data source in here
'E.g.
Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(1, 1).Value = "The macro CheckDataSource has ran " & lngTimesMacroRan + 1 & " times."
lngTimesMacroRan = lngTimesMacroRan + 1
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:02:00"), "CheckDataSource"
End Sub

HTH,
D
