auto run macro at workbook open
 

After using TS to open a workbook in XL2002 should I use
workbook_open or auto_run to activate a macro? I have
tried both with no success.
Sub Workbook_Open() '(for example)
Range("A1").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("A2").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub
I've tried the same code using Auto_Run.
Thanks

You need to put the Workbook_Open code in the ThisWorkbook code
module, not a regular code module. Alternately, you can use
Auto_Open (not Auto_Run) in a regular code module.
