[dba-Tech] Open to a specific worksheet

Hi Susan,

Hope this isn't too late!

As I'm working at Excel automation dlls right now, I chanced to run into 
this:

http://www.vickywoodard.com/teaching/excel/Julian's%20Macro%20Tips.htm

Auto Run [24/12/2001]
Making your macros run automatically when opening your workbook. You can 
either use the Auto Open method or the Workbook Open method. These macros 
will display the message "Hello" when you open the workbook.

Sub Auto_Open()
Msgbox("Hello")
End Sub

This code would be located in the module. However if you use the second 
method, the code must be in the workbook (double click "This Workbook" in 
the explorer window). Click on the drop down list (that says General) and 
select Workbook. Click on the drop down list (that says declarations) and 
select Open.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Msgbox("Hello")
End Sub
