I have a function that uses
   Application.LoadCustomUI "foo", strOut

and its part of the autoexec macro, and it works fine

now if I add a second action to the autoexec macro that calls a
function that waits for a activity to complete, equivalent to
    msgbox "wait", vbyesno

the custom ribbon does not appear until the 2nd action, thus the macro
completes

is there a application.function() to refresh the ribbon ?
