I saw a recommendation not to use DoEvents:

But the window freezes if you don't use something to wait a while. And Windows O.S. notifies you that the window is not responding.
I managed to read thousands of lines in a text file without freezes the window like this:
- I use a CallSubDelayed
- Inside the long loop I use a Sleep(0) command
I don't know if there's a better way to do this, but it worked here. If you don't use the Sleep(0) command, the window continues to freeze.
I'm converting a text file of tens of thousands of lines into an Excel spreadsheet.
Is there a more efficient way than using Sleep(0)?
Thank you.
