Hi Dr Chuck,

Try :

'=============
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Call X
End Sub
'<<=============

This is workbook event code and should be pasted into the workbook's
ThisWorkbook module *not* a standard module or a sheet module:

Right-click the Excel icon on the worksheet
(or the icon to the left of the File menu if your workbook is maximised)
Select 'View Code' from the menu and paste the code.
Alt-F11 to return to Excel.

Regards,
