I customized some key strokes to launch forms in two different workbooks. For some reason, if I have multiple workbooks open, the custom key strokes no longer work, but they do work when only one workbook is open.

Here's the code that I have. Both are stored in their respective ThisWorkbook objects.

FLP Workbook
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Application.OnKey "^\"
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.OnKey "^\", "LoadFLRTemp"
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In Worksheets
    If Not ws.Name = "Variables" Then
        If ws.FilterMode = True Then
            ws.ShowAllData
        Else
        End If
        With ws.UsedRange.Cells
            .Font.Name = "Calibri"
            .Font.Size = 10
            .Borders.LineStyle = xlContinuous
            .EntireColumn.AutoFit
        End With
    End If
Next ws
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub


OD_Dep Workbook
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
frm_ODDepFrontPage.Show
Application.OnKey "^=", "LoadODDepFrontPage"
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Application.OnKey "^="
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
have you tried
Dim wb as workbook

then using that like worksheets to ensure the application knows where it should be running

I haven't, but that's because I figured since the code was stored in "ThisWorkbook", that I wouldn't need to. However, I'll give it a try.
