I have a macro that opens workbooks collects information and closes the workbook.

It runs perfectly when I have a break point in the program, I just have to hit F5 to continue.

I am running a UserForm as vbModeless to show where I am in the process.

When I let it run it locks on a few workbooks when it Opening or Closing a workbook. Currently it is always the 11th workbook.

Is there a fix for this?

Have you tried sprinkling some DoEvents statements in the code?

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
