I asked a question earlier and received a VBE code which will probley work
but the problem is, is that i already have part of this code in the macro. I
didn't create the program. I just want 7 of the 8 tabs to stay hidden when i
reopen the workbook. Here is the code that i have as you can see i am using
the beforeclose and the work_book open code so i don't know what else to do I
have posted the entire code for your review.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'check for solver
If (CheckSolver = False) Then
MsgBox "Solver Add-In is not installed, you will not be able to
solve least costing on the Auto-Balance sheet. Consult Excel help for
information on installing the Solver Add-In."
End If
'load the expiry date from cell Expiration!B1
Expiry = getExpirationDate
rightNow = Date
'if we have expired, or moved to a different machine
If (Expiry = Empty Or rightNow Expiry Or Not
IsDataValid(getRegistrationNumber, getExpirationDate)) Then
showExpiryDialog
End If
'load the workbook
loadworkbook

Thank you, Brenda

Hi,

Isn't the code working? If not what is failing to do what you want?

By the way it looks to me as though something is missing, maybe code
associated with a form, or other module. For example, where is the variable
v coming in?

Thanks,

Thank you, Brenda

This is possibly what you want, but without seeing a workbook its
difficult:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'check for solver
If (CheckSolver = False) Then
MsgBox "Solver Add-In is not installed, you will not be able to" &
vbNewLine & _
"solve least costing on the Auto-Balance sheet." & vbNewLine & _
"Consult Excel help forinformation on installing the Solver Add-In."
End If
'load the expiry date from cell Expiration!B1
Expiry = getExpirationDate
rightNow = Date
'if we have expired, or moved to a different machine
If (Expiry = Empty Or rightNow Expiry Or Not _
IsDataValid(getRegistrationNumber, getExpirationDate)) Then
showExpiryDialog
End If
Call Sheets_Hide
End Sub

Private Sub resetToStart()
setUseCount getUseCount + 1
If (getFirstUsed = Empty) Then
setFirstUsed Date
End If
Geminator.Protect "AmIn0"
End Sub

Private Sub showExpiryDialog()
registrationForm.regTextBox.SetFocus
registrationForm.regTextBox.SelStart = 0
registrationForm.regTextBox.SelLength = _
Len(registrationForm.regTextBox.Text)
registrationForm.Show
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Call Sheets_Hide
resetToStart
Geminator.Save
End Sub

Private Sub Sheets_Hide()
Dim ws As Worksheet

I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU. There is no way i would have figured this out
and with you putting in the wording for me is greatly appreciated. From the
way everything looks it is working fine. This is a very complicated program
that was developed. Again, thank you.

Loyd, After running the program with the code you gave me i am now getting
another error message that states run time error 1004 (unable to set the
visible property of the worksheet class.

Here is the thing i have buttons on the other pages so that if someone were
to click on this button it will bring up the tab i have hidden and when they
click on another button it will hide the tab that they had clicked on before
and bring up the new tab. I think this is the reason why I am getting the
errors messages, I think we may be back to square one :-(
Here is the code for the buttons that worked great...
Sub UnHideHerdDescription()
Sheets("HerdDescription").Visible = True
Sheets("HerdDescription").Select
End Sub

Sub UnHideRequirements()
Sheets("Requirements").Visible = True
Sheets("Requirements").Select
End Sub

Sub UnHideIngredients()
Sheets("Ingredients").Visible = True
Sheets("Ingredients").Select
End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As range)
End Sub

Sub UnHideMakeAMix()
Sheets("MakeAMix").Visible = True
Sheets("MakeAMix").Select
End Sub

Sub UnHideAutoBalance()
Sheets("AutoBalance").Visible = True
Sheets("AutoBalance").Select
End Sub

Sub UnHideEvaluate()
Sheets("Evaluate").Visible = True
Sheets("Evaluate").Select
End Sub

Sub UnHideReportAutoBalance()
Sheets("ReportAutoBalance").Visible = True
Sheets("ReportAutoBalance").Select
End Sub

Sub UnHideReportEvaluate()
Sheets("ReportsEvaluate").Visible = True
Sheets("ReportsEvaluate").Select
End Sub

The thing is when i first bring up the workbook it is hidding the tabs when
you open it but now i can't click on the buttons to take them to other tabs
that I hide. Can you help me out on this?

Brenda, why not join our forums where you can make a post and upload a
workbook that way we can see your structure and all of the code as just
giving sections leads us to give you incorrect answers, make sure you
replace any sensitive or personal data with dummy data.
