Where did you put the macro?
Event macros have to go in the Sheet modules or the ThisWorkbook module.
This Workbook_Open event macro
belongs in the Thisworkbook module.
If you want to create an Auto_Open macro
it belongs in a "standard" module.
Then, of course, you must select to "enable macros" when/if prompted when
opening the workbook.
