Process other application activity in long loop

I have a long running loop in an unfortunately large excel file t开发者_如何学运维hat I'm scripting over. I seem to remember a keyword you could put in a loop statement that would cause the program to sort of temporarily "pause" the loop and process other application input, like...mouse movement, screen redraws and such.

This might be a leftover memory from the bad old days of vb5..does anybody have any idea what I'm talking about?
