Created a simple access DB with only 1 form and 1 one button to run code that opens an existing empty excel (with 1 worksheet) and writes "X" in its 1st cell. It does the job but the workbook is hidden and I have to manually unhide it. That is, after the VBA code is executed I open the excel file and it is all grayed out. I have to click the "view" tab and then select the "Unhide" option and all is fine and I can see that the cell was updated as needed. If I take out the VBA line that writes "X" in the excel file, it doesn't hide the workbook. How do I solve the problem of the workbook being hidden?
Windows 7 and Office2013.
Thank you!!!
Here is the code:
Private Sub Command0_Click()
Dim my_xl_app As Object
Dim my_xl_worksheet As Object
Dim my_xl_workbook As Object
Set my_xl_app = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
my_xl_app.UserControl = True
my_xl_app.Visible = False ' yes. I know it's the default
Set my_xl_workbook = GetObject("D:\Dropbox\MASAV\HIYUVIM\AAA.xlsx")
Set my_xl_worksheet = my_xl_workbook.Worksheets(1)
my_xl_worksheet.Cells(1, "A") = "V"
my_xl_workbook.Close SaveChanges:=True
Set my_xl_app = Nothing
Set my_xl_workbook = Nothing
Set my_xl_worksheet = Nothing
End Sub
