Hey All,

Windows Office 365 (Excel Version 2306)

I have taken over maintaining a global macro file that is stored in XLSTART so everyone in the office shares the same macros for every single excel sheet opened.

I want to be able to detect when a new xlsx/xlsm file is opened and record the filename, if it has a specific prefix it will execute some code specific to it.
I have made a module with auto_open() however the macro file in XLSTART launches first and executes the code before the actual file is opened.

Is what im trying to achieve possible?
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Solved

VBA Code:
Public WithEvents App As Application
Private Sub App_WorkbookOpen(ByVal Wb As Workbook)
    If Left(Wb.Name, 2) = "NP" Then
        MsgBox "NP Sheet: " + Wb.Name
    End If
End Sub
Public Sub Workbook_Open()
    Set App = Application
End Sub

When posting vba code in the forum, please use the available code tags. It makes your code much easier to read/debug & copy. My signature block below has more details. I have added the tags for you this time. 😊
