What is the purpose for this?
On the face, it's very simple.
However, it would not necessarily be ACCURATE.
Basically, you would initialize a counter and loop , decrementing the counter
and display the value, then use Wait() to wait for 1 second.
because the time involved in decrementing the counter and updating the cell is
not included in the delay,
the time could be several seconds off.
Even more depending on the cpu of the machine.
In addition, while the counter is running, Excel would be unavailable for use.
If those restrictions are acceptable, you could use:
Sub Diagram1_Click()
Dim cnt, tTime
cnt = 120
tTime = TimeValue("00:02:00")
For cnt = 120 To 0 Step -1
tTime = tTime - TimeValue("0:00:01")
Range("A1").Value = tTime
Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:01"))
Next cnt
End Sub
