display countdown timer in Excel

[Bert]

I'd like to display (in Excel 2003) a countdown timer in a worksheet (either
in a cell or a textbox or other control). I want the user to be able to see
the clock tick down from say 20 seconds to 0 in one second increments (or
decrements, I guess). Is there a function that will do this? If this is
somethingVBA can handle better, I can post this question in the programming
newsgroup.
Thanks,
Bert

It has to be done through VBA.

You could write code or have someone do it for you.

That someone would be Bob Phillips who has a free downlaodable workbook with a
Timer setup.
