When a msgbox is displayed, does the processing stop until
the OK button is pressed? If so, is there a way to display
the Msgbox and have the processing continue? TIA

You could design a form to simulate a message box, thereby providing a
"non-modal" approach that won't pause code, etc..
 
No, the MsgBox function displays a Modal. To achieve what
you want, you should create your own form and open it as a
Normal form.

Hope This Helps

A message box does stop execution of code. If you're
trying to use it to display a series of messages as your
code executes, I'd suggest instead creating a new form
with just a label on it, and setting the form's Caption
property and the label's Caption property as necessary.
It gives you much more control.
