Macro: If a1 is blank, run macro X, else do nothing

[oliviar]

I am trying to get my macro to do this on open. Check if a1 is empty, if its empty run another macro (which is an input box to put something IN a1), but if A1 has something in it, DO NOTHING.

I keep getting errors, saying I'm not formulating my if statements correctly.

This is what I have:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
If Range("a1") = "" Then macrox
else do nothing
End If
End Sub

try..

'Thisworkbook code
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
try1
End Sub
'standard module code
sub try1
If Range("a1").value = "" Then
macrox ' your macro
else 
exit sub 'do nothing
End If
end sub

No problems. It worked great. I was just wondering why it didn't work.
