Progress Gauge

Don't go away



If your macro is going to take a bit of time to complete, it is good manners to inform your users what is going on. If screen updating is turned off, they may think their machine has frozen.

Andy Pope has some great charting examples and also demonstrates a number of
Progress meters

Here's a static example:

Have a Geeky Christmas

And a Functional New Year


It is rather late in the season, but this is a gift that gives all year long:
This hilarious clock is the perfect accessory for any Excel power user. Each numeral has been replaced with a suitable Excel function that will evaluate to that numeral.

We've used one function from as many function categories as possible to really provide a broad range of functions.



For instance:
=FACT(3) - The FACT() function returns the Factorial of a number. The Factorial of 10 is 10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1. This function is great for statisticians calculating combinations and permutations. In our case, the Factorial of 3 is 3x2x1 or 6
