    Full Screen

    If you use an auto open macro with the following
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    then excel will open in full screen mode.

    A question I would like to ask anyone is if it is possible to disable the return to normal mode by the user ?

    Thanks

    Open in full screen

    If you see the code from the last post that is all you need, just paste it into a module and it will execute when you open the worksheet.

    Regards

    This is probably an ignorant question but I'm not very experienced with excel:

    What is a module?

    By the way...while we are at it...

    Is there also a way to, at the opening of this document, get rid of the following:

    1. "Row & column headers"
    2. "Worksheet Menu Bar"

    As you can see, I want the whole screen to be covered by the very document only, when it loads. (In other words, no visible menus or anything).
    You guys got good advice on this as well?

    Aero Man,

    Unfortunately you need to post your question in a new thread, it's against the forum rules to post a question in the thread of another user. If you create your own thread, any advice will be tailored to your situation so you should include a description of what you've done and are trying to do. Also, if you feel that this thread is particularly relevant to what you are trying to do, you can surely include a link to it in your new thread.
