Questions about opening a workbook in code
Hello All
when i open a workbook in code, does it open in the same instance of excel, or a brand new instance. i have a workbook which i am using as a "dashboard" and i want it to open other workbooks, but i would also like those to load seperately in the "background" and not take focus from the workbook with dashboard. anyone got a suggestion? |
