Userform that stays on screen & updates as each macro completes (multiple macros)

I have a macro that runs about 15 other macros. I have a user-form that lists the macros, how many tasks in each, when each macro starts (Tick + "running"), when it finishes (Tick + "complete") & a % of overall progress. All of which are textboxes linked to a sheet which is updated by each macro. Out of the 15 macros, some might not run dependent on a value held in another sheet. What I would like to be able to do is open up the user-form and keep it visible while the macros run in the background, but update each textbox with progress information as each macro starts and finishes.

I have tried putting the macros in the initialize section, the macros work & the sheet does update, but the values in the textboxes do not update until after all of the macros complete.


I could create message boxes and put them in the individual macros, but having one form visible at all times throughout the process would be better.



Any help would be appreciated

I probably was not clear enough in my post. The userform will stay on top, and the macros will run, but the textboxes in the userform will not update their values until after all the macros have run. I am trying to produce a sort of progress update as each macro is run/completes.
