I have an excel file that runs a macro when ever the file is opened or
closed. I did not write the code or create this file. The code of the macro
in the file is below. I tried copying the code to a blank excel workbook
thinking that the macro would run when the file is opened and closed, but it
does not. How does this file run this macro whenever the file is opened or
closed? I downloaded the file from http://www.savefile.com/files/495953


Option Explicit

Sub ToggleCutCopyAndPaste(Allow As Boolean)
'Activate/deactivate cut, copy, paste and pastespecial menu items
Call EnableMenuItem(21, Allow) ' cut
Call EnableMenuItem(19, Allow) ' copy
Call EnableMenuItem(22, Allow) ' paste
Call EnableMenuItem(755, Allow) ' pastespecial

'Activate/deactivate drag and drop ability
Application.CellDragAndDrop = Allow
'Application.EnableEvents = Allow
ActiveWorkbook.Saved = True
'Activate/deactivate cut, copy, paste and pastespecial shortcut keys
With Application
Select Case Allow
Case Is = False
.OnKey "^c", "CutCopyPasteDisabled"
.OnKey "^v", "CutCopyPasteDisabled"
.OnKey "^x", "CutCopyPasteDisabled"
.OnKey "+{DEL}", "CutCopyPasteDisabled"
.OnKey "^{INSERT}", "CutCopyPasteDisabled"
Case Is = True
.OnKey "^c"
.OnKey "^v"
.OnKey "^x"
.OnKey "+{DEL}"
.OnKey "^{INSERT}"
End Select
End With
End Sub

Sub EnableMenuItem(ctlId As Integer, Enabled As Boolean)
'Activate/Deactivate specific menu item
Dim cBar As CommandBar
Dim cBarCtrl As CommandBarControl
For Each cBar In Application.CommandBars
Set cBarCtrl = cBar.FindControl(Id:=ctlId, recursive:=True)
If Not cBarCtrl Is Nothing Then cBarCtrl.Enabled = Enabled
Next
End Sub

Sub CutCopyPasteDisabled()
'Inform user that the functions have been disabled
MsgBox "Sorry! Cutting, copying and pasting have been disabled in this
workbook!"
End Sub

There must be some code in workbook_open event that calls those macros.

You can see such code by right clicking on the Excel icon on the worksheet
(or next to the File menu if you maximise your workbooks), select View Code
from the menu,.

Ok, that's where it's hiding. Thanks for that Bob
