Hello

Is it possible to display a message without using the MsgBox command.

I would like to enhance the flow of my process and having to click on the "OK" box of a MsgBox is not practical

Info could be displayed for 3 seconds then disapear

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
The usual way to display status information is to use the status bar in the lower left.

Here's a cool macro that gives you different options to do that.

The simplest way to do this:

Code:
Sub zelfsluitende_msgbox()
    CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Popup "Just wait a sec......", 1, "Selfclosing MessageBox"
End Sub

Code:
Sub zelfsluitende_msgbox()
    CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Popup "Just wait 2 secs......", 2, "Selfclosing MessageBox"
End Sub
