Default Automated Popup on Opening of a Spreadsheet

You can have comments in cells that pop up. You can set validation in cells
which includes a pop up. But there is no workbook level popup capability
inherent in Excel. You can use VBA code to put up a "splash screen"


John Walkenbach shows one way:

Good Day,

I would like a popup screen to come up automatically when a spreadsheet is
open. This popup will provide directions to the users of the spreadsheet. (I
have a second sheet that provides directions but, I would like to emphasize a
couple points. I hope this is a feature within Excel but, I wouldnt be
surprised if I need to use VBA code to make it happen. Any suggestions,
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Brad
