>I have a macro that opens another excel file from a userform, the excel file that opens has an auto_open macro. When the auto_open macro runs I want to unload the useform from the other module. Does anybody know how I can pull this off? I don't think I have found the right unload statment. Thanks Jason

Hi Jason,

Here is what I found in VBA help file:

Unload Statement Example
The following example assumes two UserForms in a program. In UserForm1's Initialize event, UserForm2 is loaded and shown. When the user clicks UserForm2, it is unloaded and UserForm1 appears. When UserForm1 is clicked, it is unloaded in turn.

' This is the Initialize event procedure for UserForm1
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Load UserForm2
UserForm2.Show
End Sub
' This is the Click event for UserForm2
Private Sub UserForm_Click()
Unload UserForm2
End Sub

' This is the Click event for UserForm1
Private Sub UserForm_Click()
Unload UserForm1
End Sub

You can also try to hide UserForm just before opening another Excel file.

UserForm1.Hide
