What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
one option, paste this code in thisworkbook module;
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_WindowDeactivate(ByVal Wn As Window)
ActiveWorkbook.Close
MsgBox "You cannot open another workbook while this workbook is open", vbCritical + vbOKOnly, "Restriction!"
End Sub
