Hi Everybody!

I hope someone can help.

I have a workbook with 8 worksheets. I have hidden 3 (sheets 6,7 and 8) as I do not want my users to see them.

Of the remaining 5 worksheets, the user will only use 4 of them at any one time. I also have a combo box with yes and no answers.

If yes is selected, the user will use sheets 1,3,4,5. If no is selected, the user will use sheets 1,2,4,5.

What I want to do is have sheet 2 hidden if yes is selected and have sheet 3 hidden if no is selected.

Is there a way to do this without VB? (Or if it can only be done with VB, can you PLEASE be kind enough to give me the entire script as I have no idea how to use VB.)

Thank you very much.


Ned.

Try
Code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
If ComboBox1.Value = "yes" Then
  Sheets("sheet2").Visible = False
  Sheets("sheet3").Visible = True
Else
 Sheets("sheet2").Visible = True
  Sheets("sheet3").Visible = False
End If
End Sub

It assumes that the combobox is called combobox1, it is from the control toolbox toolbar, and the numbers you have given refer to the sheet names, rather than the index position.
