Hi All,
Big Thank-you for your help. I found when I used Workbook_open i
simple opened the file - it didn't run the macro as well. I found
techo at work and he said to try "Sub Auto_Open()". And this worke
however I get the following error - " filename.csv is already.
Reopening will cause any changes you made to be discarded. Do you wan
to reopen filename.csv? " -
if you reply YES then the macro changes are undone, if you reply NO th
file is exactly how I want it to Open. However I would like it with-ou
this msg interaction.

Does anyone understand why I would get this reOpening msg ? if so, ho
can I get rid of it?

This is my code, I'm a real beginner at VB, so basically kno
nothing... I am however, an automation programmer and are learnin
slowly about Excel.

Make sure you turn the Macro Security to LOW in excel. This is the onl
way the Private Sub Workbook_Open() will work on open without any use
interaction
