Can VBA make a bar which simulates the files opening?

I need to show to the user that my program is still running when there's no apparent actions. I'll be very grateful if any VBA programmer can advise me on how to make a simple bar which shows the number of files left to be opened, similar to the one used in web browsers to show the time left to downloading.

You can use:

Application.StatusBar = "XXX"

This displays the information you want to give on excels status bar. At the end of your code, reset it using Application.StatusBar = "". Hope this helps
