Hi

I have a please wait message that appears if there is no other action in the sub but refuses to show if the sub calls another sub??
What's wrong with my code please

Code:
Public Sub MultipleProcessCheck_onAction(control As IRibbonControl)
'   Button 53
'   Please wait message
    Sheets("Recipe").Shapes("PleaseWait").visible = True
    MulipleProcessCalc
    
End Sub

If MultipleProcessCheck is not there the shape appears!!!!?
Any help please

Paul
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
and now I'm replying to my own post
was just too fast for shape to appear. a wait fixed it!
Code:
Public Sub MultipleProcessCheck_onAction(control As IRibbonControl)
'   Button 53
'   Please wait message
    Sheets("Recipe").Shapes("PleaseWait").visible = True
    Application.Wait Second(Now()) + 10
    
    MulipleProcessCalc
    
End Sub

More elegant or better solutions still most welcome :)
