I can place a countdown timer over a spreadsheet but when i click on the
spreadsheet the timer minimizes. Can i embed this timer appication into the
spreadsheet so it doesn't minimize? Using Vista and Ezcel 2007
Thanks in advance

Just what sort of component is the timer? Is it a separate exe that
display the time in a window? What you really need to do is create an
ActiveX user control and embed that on the worksheet.

Chip,
It is a separate .exe window.
How would i creat an ActiveX control to embed the timer into the spreadsheet?
