open message box before the update or dont update message box open
Tried posting this question before, didnt work. anyway, thanks for all your past answers have leaned a great deal. I have a workbook that I dont want people to update when they open it, so I am looking to set up a message box to inform them not to update when asked. I have tried the open and the workbook activate events but they still opened after the "Update/Don't Update" box. Is there anyway to get the macaro to activate prior to that?? tks once again. J -- Cheers! |
