Dear users,

I have already a macro running for activecell actvated by ctrl + f. To
ensure my colleagues, that the macro did its job, I would like to
change the color of the cell for 1 or 2 seconds. Can anybody assists?
I recorded a macro and changed the color to yellow and back to 'no
fill'. But the macro is too fast - you don't see anything. Is there a
possibility to define how many seconds the macro should wait between
yellow and no fill?

Thanks a lot for your answers.

Regards,

Rico

One way:

   Const nWAITSECONDS As Long = 2
   
   'Your code here

   ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
   Application.Wait Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, nWAITSECONDS)
   ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone
