    [Excel] How to make VBA press the escape button?

    Hi All!

    I made a macro that opens another excel workbook with labels. When the label workbook opens the pictures blink rapidly and I cant continue before I press escape. Is it posible to make my macro press the escape button so my users dont have to deal with this every time they open the program? Or is there another way?

    To all that help, thanks for everything.

    Code:
    Application.SendKeys ("{escape}")
    (Excel 2010, at least)

    does this happen if the workbook is opened other than by code?
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed
