How can I put in a counter in the folder, it may be visible, and save it ? What I'd like to become is, next time I open a new folder the counter should be increased by one, only when I've saved the previous one. Macro's ?

Thanx
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
This should do what you want

First, Define a Named Range "Counter" in you excel Worksheet

Then, place this code in the ThisWorkbook module.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)

Dim myCounter As Variant

myCounter = Range("Counter").Value
myCounter = myCounter + 1
Range("Counter").Value = myCounter

End Sub
