    Very hidden sheets

    Good day,
    I have a workbook, lots of macros going on but none of them appear to create very hidden sheets.
    Not only does the workbook contain very hidden sheets it creates new ones out of every new sheet I make, as soon as the book is closed and reopened the new sheet is very hidden.
    I can unhide them each time no problem using a mnacro however I don't know how to unhide them permanently.

    One way - Properties - VBA editor - alter each sheets 'visible' property.

    Re: Very hidden sheets

    Thanks for that.
    After running the unhide sheets macro all hidden sheets properties are set visible. However, even if I save, then close, they are all hidden upon reopening again.
    Below is the unhide macro

    Sub UnhideAllSheets()
    Dim wks As Worksheet

    For Each wks In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    wks.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    Next wks
    End Sub

    Re: Very hidden sheets

    It sounds as though there is a workbook open (or close) event handler that's looping through the sheets and setting them to very hidden.

    Re: Very hidden sheets

    you first have to find it
    press Alt F11 and go to the thisworkbook in the Microsoft Excel objects.

    look to see if there are any events relating to open and close that have the xlhidden code in them
