Template Functionality
Hi All
I have developed an application and saved this as a template file. A separate loader programme opens this template and populates a number of sheets in the template and saving the template as a 'normal' workbook with a new name. This process in repeated 15 times for different datasets. My question concerns how does a template (xlt) file differ from a normal wks file? In my template I have some macros required for the final application, including a workbook open event. I was under the impression that the template would not run its macros upon opening - it clearly does! - how do I disable the macros in the template so that they only run when it is saved as an wks workbook? -- Cheers Nigel |
