Run Macros at Set Intervals in Excel

Run a macro every so many seconds, minutes or hours in Excel. This allows you to have a macro run automatically at predefined intervals.
I'll show you 3 ways to have the macro run at set intervals:
automatically when the workbook is opened
when a button is clicked in the worksheet
using keyboard shortcuts in Excel
This macro is similar to the countdown timer macro that I showed you in another tutorial, but there are some key differences in the code. I will, as usual, explain every line of the macros in this tutorial after I show you how to use the macro.
Make sure to download the sample file to get the macros for this tutorial!
Enjoy)

now i can sleep peacefully.
you have made my night.
i was searching for this for 2 days.
Finally i found the solution of the error while stopping this application.ontime code.
thank you ❤️
Thanks for the great ideas which extend our VBA skills so well.
Here is a thought or two, I find it convenient and less confusing to post comments at the end of code. That eliminates the confusion
while determining if comments precede or follow the code and saves space by reducing lines count, especially as maintenance coders
use different conventions. Spacing is rarely needed and can be better reserved for logical breaks. Also, it is easier to ignore if no longer
needed. With just Tab and Quote keystroke(s) your comments are easily aligned and lengthy lines can be continued with the same keys.
Another freebie: Copy the complete Sub/Function title line to the end of the End Sub/Function line, press Tab, Quote, Ctrl-v (paste)
yielding "End Sub 'Sub macro_timer()" -- which is helpful when spinning through modules with many Sub's, Function's, etc. since you
see where you are without needing to page-up, and will see the full argument structure for the code above. Together giving:
Sub macro_timer()
' TeachExcel.com
interval = Now + TimeValue("00:00:05") ' Set your interval here
Application.OnTime interval, "my_macro" ' Tells Excel when to next run the macro.
End Sub 'Sub macro_timer()
Ah, very interesting, thanks for those tips! I definitely am happy to get tips and notes on what works well))

I love this one! Useful in my multiple macro set up. Is there a way that excel can send a command using ssh, without a need of another program like putty?
I feel like it is better to go through another program, but there is a chance you could do it all through a macro, I'm really not sure.
Hi,
Can you pls explain how to Automatize data with outlook email using macro?
