launch excel, auto-open second excel file
I launch a fresh instance of Excel, which opens fine. And then it
automatically launches another xls file (C:\ExistingFolder\PreExistingFile.xls) How does it do this? Or how would we program this? Thanks. |

"Another file" means what? Two files open?
How do you launch the fresh instance of Excel? By shortcut? Check the shortcut properties.................maybe the shortcut points to a workspace file with two workbooks? If by double-click on a file to open maybe that file has code in it? Workbook_Open in Thisworkbook module or Auto_Open in a general module. Private Sub Workbook_Open() Workbooks.Open "C:\Existing Folder\PreExistingFile.xls" End Sub Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Fri, 25 Jan 2008 13:53:01 -0800, pacificwaters wrote: I launch a fresh instance of Excel, which opens fine.

it's not a shortcut. i did look into the vba macro, but no code was there.
i'm only able to generate this delinquency on one computer out of our whole network. so i think it's the MSI that was installed on this machine from when the macro was programmed. anyways, thanks.
