if I use this codes in the module before open the files which are already open will b hidden along with the file which I am opening can someone tel me how can i particularly hide the file which I want to open and display the userform

Answer 1

Try something like this

1- Create a user form with 2 button (see below pic)

2- ThisWorkbook code

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    UserForm1.Show vbModeless
End Sub

3- Form code

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    If Workbooks.Count > 1 Then
        Windows("Test.xlsm").Visible = True
    Else
        Application.Visible = True
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
    If Workbooks.Count > 1 Then
        Windows("Test.xlsm").Visible = False
    Else
        Application.Visible = False
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
    If Workbooks.Count > 1 Then
        Windows("Test.xlsm").Visible = False
    Else
        Application.Visible = False
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub UserForm_Terminate()
    If Workbooks.Count > 1 Then
        Windows("Test.xlsm").Visible = True
    Else
        Application.Visible = True
    End If
End Sub

This will only show or hide the form's workbook. Any other workbooks opened will remain unaffected.
