Excel workbook Return

[dantb]

Hi all, One more question. I have a excel workbook that is linked to anouther excel workbook. When I Hit the Cmd button to go to the other workbook It opens fine, but when I want to end and close the work book it goes to the next (window app) I have open. Anyway to "on closing" to make it go back to the workbook that it is linked to ? Thx Dan

Hi Dantb

In the Workbook that is closing place this code in the Private Module of the Workbook, and change Book1.xls to the name of the Workbook you want to activate.

Option Explicit
Dim bClose As Boolean

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
 bClose = Not Cancel
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
 On Error Resume Next
  If bClose = True Then Workbooks("Book1.xls").Activate
 On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
