Hi everyone,
I've spent a VERY long time sleuthing the web trying to find a count down
timer system (preferably that prints in the status bar of the workbook, which
i already have a working counting timer i made that does this using the
OnTime method), that allows the user to continue
changing/copying/pasting/etc. whilst it counts down to zero from a predefined
value. Although my own code uses it, you can not use the OnTime method for
this since the timer stops counting down while a user types something into a
cell for example and takes more than a second to do so:
I have found a link of someone that has cracked this problem, using an add-in:
http://www.tushar-mehta.com/excel/software/clocks/countdown.html
can this be accomplished without an addin? is it possible to view the source
code of an add-in?
Thankyou for all of your help (in advance)
