In case you don't know what an open event handler is, you might look at Chip
Pearson's page on Events. (although labelled for xl97, it is pertinent to
xl97 and later).

David McRitchie has some information on using macros since it appears you
are just getting started.

I have recorded some macros that I will like for it to
run at a given time. Example 01/02/04 at 5.00pm. Is this
possible and where in the recorded macro should I add the
line?

As an alternative to the techniques at Chip's site, it's also possible to
use simple Windows scheduling. Just add an entry in the Schedule Tasks
folder to open Excel with the workbook containing these macros in the
Excel
command line. Then write an Open event handler in that workbook to call
all
the macros. This would do a better job of ensuring the macros were run,
especially if Excel weren't running just before 5:00 PM.
