is it hard to pass control back to sw while a macro 'waits'???

Apr 21, 2004 3 Replies

Hi All,



I have a very simple macro to help me automate saving a sequence of jpegs. I want to hide and show parts and change views etc between saves. How can I pause the macro and regain control of sw until I'm ready and then pass control back?



Thanks!

Really easy, if you are using a form say UserForm1

Load Userform1 retval = Userform1.show (False) 'false makes the userform stay infront of SW but you can 'manipulate SW just like in the measuring tool.

The other way is to set your form design-time property of Modal=False.

Modal=True tells the form to prevent you from interacting with SW.
