![]() ![]() Both the Workbook Open event and the on-sheet control run the CapClock procedure. The loop between the Clock and ClockTick can be seen in figure 2. The clock is updated at one second intervals as set by the Const OneSec As String = "00:00:01" in line 2 and EarliestTime:=Now + VBA.TimeValue(OneSec) in line 14.Ĭode 1: CapClock add a digital clock to the Application.CaptionĪpplication.Caption = Format(Time, "hh:mm:ss AM/PM")ĮarliestTime:=Now + VBA.TimeValue(OneSec), _ Click image to enlarge.Īdding a clock to the Application.Caption in code 1 line 7. A ClockClear procedure to break the loop between the procedures in points 1 and 2.įig 1: xlfAnimation :: WS Clocks - 1.It is important to understand that the Clock and ClockTick have a circular link and form a two procedure loop (see figure 2) One second is the smallest time interval available in the VBA language environment. This runs the Clock at regular intervals one second time steps in this case. A ClockTick procedure linked to the Clock procedure.A Clock procedure linked to a ClockTick procedure.The AppCap clock is also fired by the Workbook Open and BeforeClose events. Procedures can be run and stopped from on-sheet ActiveX controls. Five examples are shown in figure 1, and the code is provided in sections 1.1 to 1.5. The following example use the Application.OnTime method to control a number of clock interfaces. Returns True if the specified time has arrivedĮxample 3: run the M圜ode procedure in 30 seconds from now - If Application.Wait(Now + TimeValue("00:00:30")) Then Call M圜ode Syntax Application.Wait method: (not part of this module) This example is similar to the Wait method False to clear set procedureĮxample 1: run the M圜ode procedure at 6:15 pm - Application.OnTime TimeValue("18:15:00"), "M圜ode"Įxample 2: run the M圜ode procedure in 30 seconds from now - Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:30"), "M圜ode". ![]() True (the default) to schedule a new procedure. If set, a procedure will not be run if both the EarliestTime and LatestTime have passed If omitted the, the application will wait until the procedure can be run. The name of the (sub) procedure to be run Have questions or feedback about Office VBA or this documentation? Please see Office VBA support and feedback for guidance about the ways you can receive support and provide (EarliestTime, Procedure, LatestTime, Schedule) Procedure:="my_Procedure", Schedule:=False Application.OnTime EarliestTime:=TimeValue("17:00:00"), _ This example cancels the OnTime setting from the previous example. Application.OnTime TimeValue("17:00:00"), "my_Procedure" Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:15"), "my_Procedure" This example runs my_Procedure 15 seconds from now. Procedure must take no arguments and cannot be declared in a custom class or form. Set Schedule to False to clear a procedure previously set with the same Procedure and EarliestTime values. The value of EarliestTime is rounded to the closest second. Use TimeValue(time) to schedule something to be run a specific time. Use Now + TimeValue(time) to schedule something to be run when a specific amount of time (counting from now) has elapsed. False to clear a previously set procedure. If this argument is omitted, Excel will wait until the procedure can be run. ![]() If Excel is not in Ready mode within 30 seconds, the procedure won't be run. ![]() For example, if LatestTime is set to EarliestTime + 30 and Microsoft Excel is not in Ready, Copy, Cut, or Find mode at EarliestTime because another procedure is running, Excel will wait 30 seconds for the first procedure to complete. The latest time at which the procedure can be run. The time when you want this procedure to be run. OnTime ( EarliestTime, Procedure, LatestTime, Schedule)Įxpression A variable that represents an Application object. Schedules a procedure to be run at a specified time in the future (either at a specific time of day or after a specific amount of time has passed). ![]()
