Default VBA Workbook Open Function

Hi Tim:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
' your code here
End Sub


Because it is workbook code, it is very easy to install and use:

1. right-click the tiny Excel icon just to the left of File on the Menu Bar
2. select View Code - this brings up a VBE window
3. paste the stuff in and close the VBE window

If you save the workbook, the macro will be saved with it.

To remove the macro:

1. bring up the VBE windows as above
2. clear the code out
3. close the VBE window

To learn more about macros in general, see:

A reply to another post said "Open the VBA code page for ThisWorkbook and
enter the following into the Workbook Open function". I have limited
knowledge of programming and could find this function on the VBA page.

How do I put the a line of code into this function?
