Tag cloud with exceptions and progress indicator

I have changed how I want to go about doing this. Progress indicator is no longer required. See this post.

Hi there,

I am wanting to count and create a tag cloud for unique keywords on a data set that has 20,000 complaints on seperate rows by using something like a word frequency count macro (pivot table is not necessary) and chandoos tag cloud script with the following modifcations:

1. If a word appears multiple times in one row it should only be counted once.

2. Because the data set is so large (at least 200,000 words) I would like keywords only to be displayed if they match certain user defined criteria:
a) They aren't an 'excluded keyword' such as 'and, this, that, they etc'
b) The keyword appears at least x or more times.

3. As theses script/s take a long time to run on such a large dataset I would like to include a progress indicator.

What would be the best way to do this?

Thanks so much for your help. I'm new here and if you want me to clarify anything please ask.
