Default hide TASKBAR in Sub Workbook_open()

Dago,

There is no programmatic way to change the visibility of the
Windows Taskbar.

Hi,

I have an Excel application that hides all bars

With ActiveWindow
DisplayHeadings = False
DisplayOutline = False
DisplayHorizontalScrollBar = False
DisplayVerticalScrollBar = False
DisplayWorkbookTabs = False
End With

but: I want the Windows TASKbar hidden as well to get a real

full
screen view.
I want it to work in Windows 98, 2000 and XP and with Excel 97,

and
2000

The code should be in the Sub Workbook_open() in the

ThisWorkBook
VBAProject in Excel

I've tried several pieces of code, which produce errors.

Is there a piece of code that I can use to hide the Windows

taskbar
automatically upon opening the excel file?

This code would be appreciated! If you're willing to help,

please
provide some instructions, as I am a relative novice...

Thanks in advance!

Dago
