[RESOLVED] Excel - Disabled Macros

My spreadsheet needs the macros to work correctly.
Is it possible to use the IF statement in a cell to work out if the macros are disabled or not?
I was thinking of some sort of conditional formatting that would put in big letters "Enable the macros!" if the sheet was open with the macros disabled.

A simple way would be to have that in the cell by default and if macros are enabled then have a small macro to clear that cell. So if no macros are enabled it will be left in the cell so they can read it.

If not i'll look into seeing if there is anyother way.

Backward thinking! I like it! :afrog:

:D My dyslexia is finally paying off.

I couldnt find anything that would help on this. :(

I created a sheet with a big message on it then
On Open I hid it and unhid the other sheets
On Close I hid the other sheets and unhid the message sheet.

That way it looks normal if you enable macros and has only a message if the macros are disabled

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    'Make the sheets visible if the macros are enabled
    Sheets(2).Visible = True
    Sheets(3).Visible = True
    Sheets(4).Visible = True
    'Hide the disabled macro sheet
    Sheets(1).Visible = False
 
End Sub
 
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
    'Show the disabled macro sheet
    Sheets(1).Visible = True
    'Hide all the proper sheets so that a macro must open them
    Sheets(2).Visible = False
    Sheets(3).Visible = False
    Sheets(4).Visible = False
    'Save the workbook
    Me.Save
End Sub
