Hi,
I need to hide a worksheet on closing the workbook.
I have tried doing this using Workbook_BeforeClose and also
Workbook_Open but these have not consistently perfomed this task.
When using Workbook_BeforeClose and closing the workbook using the
workbook x (not the excel x) the first time I test this, the sheet is
hidden as expected. I choose Yes to save changes, the file closes.
I reopen the file, the worksheet is hidden as expected, I expose the
sheet and close the workbook using the workbook x again, saying Yes to
save changes, file closes.
I reopen the file and the worksheet is not hidden as expected.
The code I am using is as follows (this is in the ThisWorksheet Object
in the project)
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Worksheets("test").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
End Sub
If I use the x to close Excel and the open file then the sheet gets
hidden but this is done via my Workbook_Open code - as the msg box
pops up as expected.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
MsgBox "Workbook_Open() code triggered this"
Worksheets("test").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
End Sub
If I open the file but without closing Excel, then the Workbook_Open
code is not triggered and my sheet not hidden.
So I haven't managed to find a consistent way to hide the sheet. I
don't mind how I do this - on close or open - but just want it to be
fool proof and never visible unless another macro (with password)
enables it.
I have obviously reviewed a large amount of other posts but none of
these seem to point to the same inconsistencies as I'm seeing - I will
try on my Excel at home to remove the possibility of a corrupt
installation on my machine. But in the interim - does anyone have any
experience with this issue?
I'm running Excel 2003 SP2 (11.8109.8122)
Thanks in advance for any of your time, advice or thoughts on this!
Cheers, S
