    Stopping Prompt Message After One Time

    I have some columns that auto unhide and when this happens, a prompt message displays to inform the user to complete the next level.

    This is the code I am using and I have attached the sheet,

    Try this...I think i understand what you are after. Basically, change the order of the operations (prompt then unhide) then you can use and IF statement to only perform the action IF the columns are hidden.

    That way, once they are not hidden, the message will not fire again.

    But, i wasn't sure if this made the sheet function exactly how you want, it does handle the "don't prompt again" part of things
