Copying rows and also running macro on open
Posted by Brian on August 03, 2000 3:05 PM
I have two questions. The first is I am very new to programming in VB and need to run a macro when a file opens. How do I do this. I have the macro read and now how to create a macro to run that macro but where do I put it so that it runs on open. Second I am using an access form to enter in data to excel and when new data is entered I would like the formulas in the other cells in the row to be copied down. IS there somethign I can do to do this? Thanks

Q1
Go to the VB editor and select the ThisWorkbook object in the Project window.
In the code window, select "workbook" from the right hand drop down box and the following will appear :-
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
End Sub
Call your macro from this procedure.
For an explanation of Event Procedures, have a look at :-

Q2
For copying formulas from one row to another, see if the reply to Inserting rows w/formulas - Eric Sustaita 10:37:29 8/03/100 (2) provides what you need.
(This could also be done with an event procedure)
