Thank you for your prompt reply. I have inserted the MsgBox as advised, but the Message does not appear. Macros are not disabled on my system as far as I can tell. I recall the warning about "dangerous code" being run with that setting. I did not post the Macro because I am struggling with an unfamiliar and complex Forum structure and couldn't see how to do it.
