Auto macro question

[OceansideDJ]

How can I rename a macro in Excel 2000 to run automatically when the
spreadsheet opens?

Thanks,

Mike

Mike, you can name it auto_open or put your code in the workbook open event

Sub Auto_Open()

'your code here

End Sub

or in thisworkbook


Private Sub Workbook_Open()

'your code here

End Sub

Use the Workbooks_Open event and call you macro from there. This sub should
be put in the ThisWorkbook module (select it from the dropdowns at the top
of the module to insure it is declared properly.

See Chip Pearson's page on Events:

You need to add this event code plus you macro code to the this Workbook
module of your worksheet.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()

'Your code here

End Sub

Mike,
In a standard module, try this...

Sub Auto_Open()
....
End Sub

OR

In the "ThisWorkbook" module...

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
....
End Sub
