Excel Vba Macro : Insert Introduce Time Delay in Macro Vba [Q]
Does anyone know how to introduce a time delay into excel VBA macros? I created an excel macro that runs an application on about 15 different excel worksheets. I want to be able to have the macro pause between excel worksheets, to allow this application to have enough time to download on every sheet. Is this possible? If so, what excel vba macro code would I need?
Excel Vba Macro : Insert Introduce Time Delay in Macro Vba [A]
This is excel vba macro code that can be putted into the standard module as a public declaration at the top of the module and called at anytime by simply typing:
HalfSecDly
on a line by itself in your code.
Public Function HalfSecDly()
y = Timer + 0.5
Do While Timer < y
DoEvents
Loop
End Function
You can create other functions for different time delays by changing the 0.5
to another number. i.e. 0.1 = tenth second, 1 = one second 10 = 10 seconds, etc. There is a way to set it up for microseconds but I find tenths to be good
enough.
