Open Workbooks
I am looping through all the workbooks in a folder, opening them, performing
some task and then closing them without saving. I have turned screen updating off, but want to know if there is any way I can stop the name of the file appearing in the task bar when the file is opened? I know there are lots of arguments to the workbooks.open event but none seem to allow this. Paul Smith |

No idea what all this means.
Maybe it does what I want maybe it does not, but I have no idea how to use it. "Gary Brown" wrote in message ...

I think you have mis-read my question!!!!!
I asked how to stop a file from appearing in the Task bar not the Title bar of the application. What I am asking about is the taskbar that appears, usually at the bottom of the screen and has the names of all the open applications. Paul Smith "Gary Brown" wrote in message ...

You're right, I did misread your question...
To turn the StatusBar off, give it a blank value... Application.StatusBar = False To put the StatusBar back to normal Application.StatusBar = False These would go in procedures. You asked your question in the 'Programming' forum so I'm assuming you are a bit familiar with programming in VBA. ??? -- Hope this helps. If it does, please click the Yes button.

You are still misreading.
Status Bar is not the TaskBar. I think the only way is to AutoHide the Taskbar Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Tue, 16 Mar 2010 11:21:01 -0700, Gary Brown wrote: You're right, I did misread your question...

Thanks Gord,
I had the feeling it was not something that could be achieved in VBA. Paul Smith "Gord Dibben" <gorddibbATshawDOTca wrote in message ... You are still misreading. Status Bar is not the TaskBar.
