This is good to let the user know the code isn't hung up, when loading data
from Outlook.
Is there a way to have the status show no the Userform, rather than down at
the bottom of the main Word application? Somewhere on the Userform, where
it's good and visible? If not the Status function, than some other way?
thanks

Not the Status function, which is specific for the status bar. But you can place
a label on the Userform and change its .Caption property whenever you want
(including setting it to "" or setting its .Visible = False to hide it).

Thanks. That works great. Especially if you give it a big font.
