Hi,

When I open another workbook in VBA through Workbooks.Open, how to let the program NOT run the auto_open() in that workbook?

Thanks.

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Actually, the Auto_Open doesn't run automatically when you open a workbook through VBA. Only the Workbook_Open() event fires.

If that's what you are using, then put

Application.EnableEvents = False

before opening the file, and restore it to True afterwards.
