  Hi there, Yes that should be possible. You could use a timer that you start when the VBA code initializes, and then fire off the messagebox after an hour has elapsed. It's not the easiest of things to get timers working in VBA, I believe, but check out this article - [http://www.cpearson.com/excel/OnTime.aspx](http://www.cpearson.com/excel/OnTime.aspx) - that should help. All the best James
