HELP: Application.Visible issue - only hide workbook that has user
 

Hi All,

I have a very critical issue with launching userform created in excel.

I have a like of code that says

Application.visible = false

I want to hide the workbook that has the userform only. But it hides all the
other opened workbooks too.. Is there a way to overcome this? There have been
users who had not saved their workbooks and launched the form and all their
excel files were gone.. How can I resolve this?

Thanks in advance

application invisible is exactly that . Excel is hidden, the other workbooks
still exist.
your userform should ensure that the application becomes visible again when
it closes.

Thanks for the help Patrick, Is there a way to keep the workbook closed when
we pull data from it? or atleast keep it hidden?

For eg: In my form I have some fields that are auto populated from a
workbook that is on network drive based on what you input in certain fields..
Rite now I have it working but the workbook that has the information always
opens when my code pulls information from it. Is there a way to keep it
closed or hidden? I am not updating this workbook, just pulling information
from it.

Thanks in advance
