Uninstall Add-ins when workbook closes

D

Dan

I have a very simple macro I want to run each time I close a workbook. Its
purpose is to uninstall thee excel add-ins. But the macro is not running. I
put it in "ThisWorkbook" in my Personal macro workbook and cannot figure out
why it is not running. I can't even get the messagebox to appear. Any help
is greatly appreciated.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(cancel As Boolean)

i = MsgBox("TESTING", vbOKOnly, "TESTING")
Call Uninstall_Essbase_and_SmartView

End Sub

Sub Uninstall_Essbase_and_SmartView()

AddIns("Hyperion Essbase OLAP Server DLL (non-Unicode)").Installed = False
AddIns("Hyperion Essbase Query Designer Addin").Installed = False
AddIns("Hyperion Smart View for Office").Installed = False
End Sub

Hi

The macro will never run, where you have i now.

Put the "Workbook_BeforeClose" sub in "ThisWorkbook" in each workbook where
you want to trigger the uninstall sub.

The "Sub Uninstall...." can be in a module in your Personal macro workbook.

is there any way to put something out there that will run when all workbooks
are closed?

Hi Dan

If you want to uninstall the add-ins when the last workbook is closed, put
this sub in all workbooks that will be open at the same time. The add-ins
will be uninstalled when only one workbook plus Personal.xls is still open,
but closing.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
If Workbooks.Count = 2 Then ' Personal.xls count as open workbook
i = MsgBox("TESTING", vbOKOnly, "TESTING")
Call Uninstall_Essbase_and_SmartView
End If
End Sub
