Rory,

ThisWorkbook refers to this workbook, and includes all worksheets within
that workbook. In an add-in, you can have worksheets and use them, but I
don't think you can make these visible (I may be wrong, never thought to do
it myself). As such, I think you have a fundamental problem. In my add-ins,
I either use a proper help file, or I create a simple form which I display
to give the help instructions. You could try this.

I am writing a help screen for my add-in package of programs, which
simply reads from "helpsheet" worksheet. However I don't want the
worksheet to open everytime I link to it, and I can't seem to get it to
be added to my Add-in, as worksheet. The books tell me it has to be
activate, and should be in the THisworksbook package, so:
a) If necessary how do I move a worksheet into the Thisworkbook of an
'existing 'Add-in,
b) If I do or do not, can how can I keep it active but not visible, or
else there is no point to of having a more sophisticated looking Help
screen, I might as well just link to the helpsheet worksheet.

Any help would be appreciated.

Rory
