Shift key to disable macros

J

Jarryd

Hi,

I thought that the by holding down teh shift key when opening excel macros
would be disabled. However, I have a file that has some code in thhe
Workbook_Open() event. When I open Excel holding down the shift key (left
one, the right one, or both!!) it still runs the code.

Why?

TIA,

Jarryd

shift key..... ahhhhhh.
