can i have a pop up reminder message when i open a workbook?
j jones, something like this,
Private Sub Workbook_Open() MsgBox "This is a reminder", , "This Is The Title" End Sub To put in this macro, from your workbook right-click the workbook's icon and pick View Code. This icon is to the left of the "File" menu this will open the VBA editor, in Project Explorer double click on thisworkbook, under your workbook name, if you don't see it press CTRL + r to open the Project Explorer, then, then paste the code in the window that opens on the right hand side, press Alt and Q to close this window and go back to your workbook, now this will run every time you open the workbook. If you are using excel 2000 or newer you may have to change the macro security settings to get the macro to run. To change the security settings go to tools, macro, security, security level and set it to medium -- Paul B Always backup your data before trying something new Please post any response to the newsgroups so others can benefit from it Feedback on answers is always appreciated! Using Excel 2002 & 2003 "j jones" <j wrote in message ... |

Only if you enable macros.
In ThisWorkbook module enter this code. Private Sub Workbook_Open() MsgBox "Don't forget your umbrella when it's raining" End Sub Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Wed, 16 Nov 2005 07:11:09 -0800, "j jones" <j wrote: |
