Auto clicking macro button

[dp001]

Hi

Sub Button1_Click()
    Range("T23").Select
    Selection.ClearContents
End Sub
Sub test()
    Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:10"), "Repeat_VBA"
End Sub

Above is the code I have.

I have created a button which when clicked manually clears the contents in T23, as seen in the top half of the code.

I have written the second half of the code in the hope it will auto click the button every 10 seconds but it doesn't do anything.

Can anyone see what's wrong with this?

Thanks

Welcome to the Board.

Try:

Sub Button1_Click()
    Range("T23").ClearContents
End Sub
Sub Repeat_VBA()
    Button1_Click
    Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:10"), "Repeat_VBA"
End Sub

How are you initiating the second macro? If you just want the first button click to start the process:

Sub Button1_Click()
    Range("T23").ClearContents
    Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:10"), "Button1_Click"
End Sub

How do you plan to end the process? You could monitor a certain cell and if it sees an "x", stop:

Sub Button1_Click()
    Range("T23").ClearContents
    If Range("T24") = "x" Then Exit Sub
    Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:10"), "Button1_Click"
End Sub
