Hey everyone, I need to run a code that would disable cell movement when Enter is pressed. I am aware of Excel's built-in feature but that will work for all workbooks. However, I want it to work for the active workbook only.

Will appreciate any help on this.

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
I'm not sure what other consequences this will have.

VBA Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
    'disable Enter key
    Application.OnKey "{RETURN}", ""
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
    'enable Enter key
    Application.OnKey "{RETURN}"
End Sub
