From that error message it would seem that the StartBlinking macro is not to be
found.

The workbook I sent to you and the savefile download contains the proper code in
the proper locations.

Would you please send me by email a copy of the workbook Wellington7s

First save the copy as 97-2003 format.

I don't have 2007 and not inclined to load the compatibility pack right now.

I have added the line as you suggested (as you will see), my
calculations are set to auto. Its still doing the same thing.

See my reply to Dave about calculation mode.

To ensure that calc mode is always on automatic when the workbook is opened,
change/add one line to the workbook_open code.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic 'add this line
StartBlinking
End Sub

Save and close then re-open.

Just wish I knew what.

You sure you have security set to medium so's you get the macro warning when you
open the workbook?

Blinks fine at my end.

Can you send it back to me if you're not too ****ed off with the entire exercise
and me?

Thank you so much Gord, yes it was my stupidity. I appreciate your
efforts in solving it. Now, I just need to find a 'head' clinic to
sort out the rest of my stupidity.

Delighted that you received my revised edition of Wellington 7s.xls with all its
revisions intact.

Just keep plugging away and remember to read carefully when receiving
instructions.

A habit more of us could benefit from, I might add.

Google for my posts and you will find quite a few that say "Oops, guess I
should read the whole post"
