Thanks for your idea, I am almost there, I have created a single worksheet
that if the workbook is opened, the worksheets that they can enter data on
are hidden unless the Marco's are enabled - they also re-hidden on

closure.

The only thing I need to disable is the Unhide worksheet from the Format

menu?

Can this be done on closure

TIA

Michael

As Tom says, you cannot do what you want, but you can make it obvious

to
the user that they shouldn't.

One way to approach this is as follows.
- create a worksheet with a message on explaining that for this workbook

to
run it needs macros enabled, maybe even a few screenshots
- hide all other worksheets]
- add some code in the Workbook_Open event that un hides the other

sheets,
but hides that sheet.


What happens is that if they do not enable macros, they will only see

the
warning sheet, telling them how to do it. If the enable macros, it will
startup as the workbook it should be.

I am currently looking for a way to close a workbook if the user has a
lower
security setting than meduim or the user chooses to disable macro's

The reason for this I have a macro in the work book that checks for a

data
and lock the worksheet if the date has passed, however if they disable

the
macro's they can work on this worksheet

Any idea would be appreciated
TIA
Michael
