Running Analyst Macros from Planning Manager

Hi

I have a number of macros which are run from a single button on a Planning Manager. These update a number of DCubes and DLists prior to creating a Contributor model. Our problem is that we can't see the progress of them to ensure they are running. The only option I can think of is to put a series of message boxes in the macros to identify stage completion.
Are there any other options?

Using version 8.4.27

Thanks

You cannot have a progress type bar, (if thats what you want) in Cognos Manager.

Putting message boxes in the macro would achieve what you want, but note that if you do this the macros will need to be run when someone is at the computer, i.e. requires use input.

I just use a message box at the start and end of macros.

Regards

Stuart
