Greg,

The code has to copied into ThisWorkBook module, not into a Sheet
module or a regular module ...
In Jim's example the cell B2 is the cell used for the invoice number
which gets automatically incremented ...

Sorry Carim I guess I am too dumb Is there a ready made macro I could find
I have a number sequence MT000001 which has to move up 1 number every time I
open the sheet on cells B5 to I5
Got any ideas
Thanks so Much

Greg,

Once you got the sequence number working, you can easily format it as
follows :
Format Cell Number Custom :
"MT"00000
and it will produce your result.

I tried that code, then formatted cell B2 like Carim said.
I had to comment out the other formatting code then it worked nicely.
Also, i noticed you have to delete value from cell B2 before saving
else
the macro wont find it "empty" and will not work.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Const sAPPNAME As String = "Excel"
Const sSECTION As String = "Invoice"
Const sKEY As String = "Invoice_key"
Const nDEFAULT As Long = 1&
Dim nNumber As Long

With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Invoice")
With .Range("B1")
If IsEmpty(.Value) Then
.Value = Date
.NumberFormat = "dd mmm yyyy"
End If
End With
With .Range("B2")
If IsEmpty(.Value) Then
nNumber = GetSetting(sAPPNAME, sSECTION, _
sKEY, nDEFAULT)
'.NumberFormat = "@"
.Value = nNumber ' Format(nNumber, "000000")
SaveSetting sAPPNAME, sSECTION, sKEY, nNumber + 1&
End If
End With
End With
End Sub
