unhide a page if a cell b4 equals 5 in excel

  Asked By: Muaz    Date: Nov 22    Category: MS Office    Views: 946
  

I have a spreadsheet with a hidden page.

If cell B4 = 5 r above I wish the page (sheet 2) to be unhidden
also if then falls value in B4 goes below 5 I would then like to hide the sheet.

I assume cell  B4 on Sheet2 has a formula, so its value may change automatically
based on other cells, the time, etc. Paste the following event logic in the code
module for Sheet2:

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
If Me.Range("B4") < 5 Then Me.Visible = False
If Me.Range("B4") >= 5 Then Me.Visible = True
End Sub

This code will run whenever Sheet2 is recalculated. To ensure that B4 always
get recalculated, you can add +(0*Now()) to the end of the formula in B4. It
won't change the value of B4, but the Now() function guarantees that excel  will
recalc B4 when the workbook is recalculated.
