HI All,

I have the code
HTML:
Sub HideStuff()
Application.DisplayFullScreen = TrueApplication.DisplayFormulaBar = FalseActiveWindow.DisplayWorkbookTabs = FalseActiveWindow.DisplayHeadings = FalseActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = FalseEnd Sub

to just show my file in full screen mode, however I've found that it then applies the rules to any other excel file I have open/open afterwards.

Is that just the way it works, or is there a way to apply the full screen code just to this one workbook?

Thanks

Phil

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
As you can notice, these are Application level properties, so that it applies to every workbook you open.

It's possible to revert values of DisplayFullScreen and others in Workbook_Activate and Workbook_Deactivate event handlers like this:

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
    Application.DisplayFullScreen = True
End Sub


Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
    Application.DisplayFullScreen = False
End Sub
