I don'tt believe so. XL needs to open at least enough to run your worksheet,
so even if you use
application.screenupdating=false
you'll still see the application open.

Also, what you're describing is very similar to what a virus would do, thus
reinforcing my belief that this can not be done.

Hello,

I prepare one macro and placed it "Workbook_Open()" and at the end, I said
"Me.Save" and "ActiveWorkbook.Close" to close the workbook.

I created a scheduled task with the "Scheduler" (in control panel) to open
the above XL file once in every 30 minutes.

When ever this file is opened by "Scheduler", I see a new XL window opening
in my task bar and closes after the macro is finished.

Is there a way I can hide this XL window so that user does not know about it
at all.

Thanks
Sri
