Hi Bob, does that mean if i have a userform to start the whole program off
can i then call an excel workbook from that but it would still open the whole
excel page not just my workbook without any toolbars,address bar,etc,if you
know what i mean because thats what i want no toolbars or anything showing
other than my formatted workbook from address bar down

That is not what Tom was saying. If you make the Excel application not
visible, workbooks which are part of the Excel application will also not be
visible. They will however continue to run code, such as display userforms.

You have to have excel open to open and workbook and you have to have a
workbook open to run it macros. That said, you could make the
application
(excel) not visible. This assumes you are running some code to do this
(from where I don't know).
