Excel Workbook Won't open - Gets error!!

[andrewb90]

Hi all,

I'm not sure what I did, but I can't get my excel workbook to open properly, and I get this error.
Run Time error 1004
Method 'worksheets' of object '_Global' failed

I am able to open and unlock VBA, but I can't seem to make anything work.

Bump...

Do you get a popup with the option to debug?

 

[StephenCrump]

That indicates there's something wrong with the code in ThisWorkbook / Sub Workbook_Open, or in code that's called by this Sub.

Save the Workbook with VBA unlocked, and when you re-open and get the error, you should be able to go into Debug mode and see which line is causing the problem.

Post your code if you can't work out why it's erroring.

.. and when you re-open and get the error ...

Or you can just run the Workbook_Open Sub, i.e no need to close and reopen.

I run my workbook open sub and it runs until it gets to this:

Private Sub NextOpen()Dim ws As Worksheet
Application.OnKey "{F2}", "module5.pophelp"
Application.OnKey "{F4}", "module5.XAB"
Application.DisplayFormulaBar = False
Application.CellDragAndDrop = False
Application.CommandBars("Shapes").Enabled = False
Application.ExecuteExcel4Macro "Show.ToolBar(""Ribbon"",False)"
[COLOR=#ff0000] For Each ws In Worksheets[/COLOR]
    ws.Activate
    With ActiveWindow
        .DisplayHeadings = False
        .DisplayGridlines = False
    End With
Next ws

Then the red line is highlighted and I get the same error as before.
Excel is just a gray screen with no functionality other than close/minimize window

Also should add that when I try to close now

ActiveWorkbook.Unprotect

gets flagged with error Run-Time error 91:


It's like my sheet is open, but VB can't find it so it throws errors as if I'm trying to do stuff on a workbook that's not open.

Where is the Workbook_Open() event routine in your post ?!

 

[andrewb90]

Private Sub Workbook_Open()Application.DisplayAlerts = False
If Sheets("Home").Range("AK1").Value = 1 Then
    Application.Run "module5.destructure"
    Sheets("Home").Visible = True
    Sheets("Home").Select
    Sheets("Home").Range("AK1").Value = "Open Code"
    
    Application.Run "Module1.HideAllExceptScheduler"
    Application.Run "module5.structure"
    'Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Else
    'MsgBox "preopen is running"
    
    
    
    
    'Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    'ActiveWindow.Visible = False
    'SplashUserForm.Show
    'Windows(ThisWorkbook.Name).Visible = True
    'Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    'MsgBox "premod13"
    Application.Run "Module13.PreOpen"
End If


End Sub

Sorry, it calls that function

 

[StephenCrump]

Sorry, it calls that function

It's still not clear what's calling NextOpen?

Can you post all the code that runs between Workbook_Open and NextOpen?
