Default Macro for making worksheets visible.

If using EXACTLY as shown the OR would present a problem. Either comment it
out with ' in front. These are 2 different subs and your button should be
assigned to one. I do NOT like the control box buttons. I suggest a forms
button or a shape from the drawing toolbar. BTW, Julie provided an error
check so maybe use hers.

I have been able to Step through the macro and it works. But when I click

on
the button to activate the macro, nothing happens. I have made sure I am

not
in Design Mode when clicking.

I have put in the code exactly like I see it. Are there any special
characters that I should be using anywhere? I can't seem to get it to

work.
I'm new to programming in VB.

Hi Luke

have a button on the front sheet called "click me" (or similar) with

the
following code behind it

sub clickme()
dim eID as string

on error goto err_handle
eID=Inputbox("Please, enter your employee ID number","Log In")

Sheets(eID).visible = true
Sheets(eID).activate

exit sub

err_handle:
msgbox "Invalid number, please try again",vbCritical,"Wrong"

end sub

I have 12 agents that I manage. I want to create a workbook that

includes
each person's vacation accrued and spent on separate worksheets.

I want to make all the worksheets invisible upon load of the

workbook (I
figured that out). I want to give each agent access to their own
worksheet
without being able to view the other agents.

I have each worksheet named as the agents' employee ID numbers. I

want
to
create a macro that will make visible a worksheet based on the

employee
ID
number an agent types in somewhere.

Thanks,
Luke
