- A friend of mine asked me about how to let excel periodically update
- some worksheets containing stock prices. So the first thing I did was
- searching the web for a solution in Visual Basic for Applications.
- But the only one I found was to use a 3rd party ActiveX timer control
- which you have to place onto a userform. Then I found the VBA command
- "Application.onTime" and I had an idea.
-
- Here is my solution only utilizing the VBA onTime command. No need for
- ActiveX control or any other 3rd party module.
