Yes that can be done, but very easy to get around, what if they open the
book with macros disabled?

Hi,

I'm sending out a time-restricted Excel workbook for others to use, and
I'd like the file to auto-delete itself if it's already expired. Is this
possible to do in VBA? For example, if it's possible, the code could reside
in the Workbook_Open event, where a msgbox will pop up to tell the user the
file's expired (done), and then delete the file.

Thanks heaps for your help,

SuperJas.
