Comment showson open then deletes
I would like to insert or show a message / comment when a worksheet is
opened for the first time. I then want the comment or message to delete itself. Basically, I'm trying to embed a 2 or 3 sentence instruction for users then have it go away after 15 seconds or after they read it so it doesn't interfere with future cell data. Any idea's ? Thanks. John |

John,
A macro can do this. If you're willing, we'll write it for you. -- Earl Kiosterud mvpearl omitthisword at verizon period net ------------------------------------------- "JohnG" wrote in message ...
