I understood you and was also hoping for an answer. I was able to
eliminate (not trap) the "cold" pop-up in my application by setting the
Cancel boolean as below. Obviously this only works on Double click but
it's a help and you probably want to use Target to control the
canceling.



Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal
Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
