Hi there,
I am writing an Excel Macros and I want it to pause in the middle until some data from other macroses (Equity data from Reuters) can get loaded in the sheet, looked-up etc. So I tried using the Applicaiton.Wait command. However, this command pauses not only my macro but also all other Excel applications. Is it possible that I pause my macro only and wait until the other application are done?
Thanks :)

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Sort by date Sort by votes
You could get the macro to keep looping until a certain criteria has been met.
