Typical User...when they reported the problem, usual response of "I didn't do 
anything, it happened on it own, fairies at the bottom of the garden did it".  

Once I pointed out what had caused it and after about an hour of my time 
researching and trying different things he said "oh yes, I was playing with 
that option just before I saved it.  I thought it would hide a tab rather than 
the whole thing, oh well".

Yes...Oh well

Thanks again Ray!

Steve

Is the workbook hidden?  Does the "Unhide" menu option from the "Window"
menu display that workbook name?
