VBA Screensaver

[DrMingle]

The concept: As a macro peformers I need to do a "tips of the day" kind of thing for the users waiting on the macro...

I need a simple screensaver (randomized text based phrases-which I will supply) to run only during a macro's performance...

The macro runs for about 30 seconds....

I need to have the screensaver end when the routine finishes and I don't need the screensaver to take up the entire screen, if at all possible...maybe a screensaver window.


Anybody know where I can start...

By the way, I wasn't trying to knock you for not googling (after all those may not be exactly what you want). I just thought that lmgtfy was cool.
