Reinhardt--

I do the same as Ralf--have VB put up a message saying: "Now select an object...Once you've selected an object, click the OK button to continue running the script."

Or something like that.

You can have the MsgBox display multiple options, or use an InputBox to have the user enter text--that way, your script can make decisions based on user input.

Thanks,

Ole
