Progress bar/meter for duration of code - No loop

[Les Stout]

Hello all, excuse the question, it is probably quite simple. I have
various progress meters that i have secured from this site but i see
that they all run with loops but i have a series of routines that need
to run and would just like to know how to fit my code in ?? Any help
would be appreciated....

Best regards,

Why not just replace your "various progress meters" with one that you
update after each routine is complete? If one routine takes 50% of
the time, and another only 12 percent, so be it. Adjust your single
progress meter accordingly. This would be like the "Overall" progress
meter one sees when loading new software, instead of the progress
meter for the "Current process", which you seem to be using now.
Well, just a thought......James

Les,

They don't have to be in loops, but they do need some point in your code
where the progress bar can be updated.

Does your code have such points or is the time taken up with calls out to
other apps/systems, such as OS calls?

You don't show any code, so how could we know how it all could fit together
?
"various progress meters" and "a series of routines" don't tell us much.

Can you post a simple example of what you want to do?

Hi Bob, no it is just opening files, creating sheets doing comparisons
and pasting found values to the new sheets. But i think i have cracked
it thanks Bob... If i dont come right i will come back tomorrow... Good
evening, cold as hell here, this weather has gone crazy !!! We had snow
here about 10cm deep !!!!

Best regards,

My daughter is in NZ for the ski-ing season. Day before the season started,
she was walking about in shirtsleeves, bright sunny days. Thought that there
was no way that the season would start on time, but that very night they had
a tremendous fall, beautiful powder snow on all slopes, and even down in
Queenstown, which is rare.

Something is a foot methinks.
