Default Office Excel 2003 Versions and VBA

Hi all,

Have whipped the following code in Excel/VBA and placed in the
'ThisWorkbook' module. The problem that I have is that it works well with
other users using Excel 2003 Standard edition.
I'm using Beginners edition - is that why the code won't run?

The vba code:
[-- code start --]
Private Sub Workbook_Open()

'Prompt user on opening XLS to Print Worksheet and quit.

Dim Resp

Resp = MsgBox("Do you wish to Print and Exit ?", _
vbYesNo + vbQuestion, _
"Print & Exit ?")

If Resp = vbYes Then
ActiveWorkbook.PrintOut
Application.Quit
End If

End Sub
[-- code end --]

Please help - this is driving me nuts.

Cheers,
Cameron

Hi Bob,

Actually, all of it. For some reason the Workbook_Open() event just doesn't
seem to fire.

You did put it in the ThisWorkbook code module, not a standard code module?

Close that workbook (if it's open)
tools|macro|security...|security level tab

Change it to medium (to be prompted each time a workbook containing macros
opens)
or
change it to low (to always allow macros to run)

How do you open that workbook?

Do you open it using another macro in a different workbook?

If yes, do you use a shortcut key assigned to that macro.

If yes, does that shortcut key include the shiftkey.

If yes (again!), then remove the shiftkey from the short cut key.

===

Do you have events enabled when you try to open the workbook?
