Auto run macro on *.csv file open
I have a *.CSV file that opens/updates information for part measurements.
Current macros have previously closed all but the Personal macro workbook. When a new part is measured, and it's data sent to the CSV file, I need a method of automatically running macros when this CSV file opens. The CSV itself will not store a self-start macro, either due to Excel constraints, or due to the setup of the sendig program. Can someone help me set up a macro in the Personal workbook that will begin after this specific CSV opens? I am using Excel 97. Thank! -- CPPoe |

Auto run macro on *.csv file open
Nikon E-max software sends the CSV to Exce. If Excel is not previously
opened, my macros will not run at all. I have Excel open in the background with no files except the hidden Personal macro file open. E-max sends the information to Excel in a CSV.

Auto run macro on *.csv file open
You'll need to set up an event handler to catch the workbook_open event of
the Excel application object. Chip Pearson has an excellent introduction to this: http://www.cpearson.com/excel/AppEvent.htm -- Tim Williams Palo Alto, CA "CP Poe" wrote in message ...
