With this file open and visible in the main Excel window, right-click
on the little Excel file icon to the left of the File menu (assumes
you are using xl2003) and choose View Code. Paste the following into
the code area of the VBE that will open up:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim lngRow As Long
With Sheets("Sheet1") ' amend sheet name as appropriate
lngRow = Application.Match(CLng(Date), .Range("A:A")) 'amend
column as appropriate
Application.Goto .Range("A" & lngRow), True 'amend column as
appropriate
End With
End Sub
You will need to amend the sheet name and the column to whichever
sheet your data is on and which column the dates are in. Save the
workbook, close and reopen, enabling macros when you do.
Hope thios helps!

Auto-format in Microsoft Excel.
Each time i try to enter a number range, for example, 8- 10, in Excel, it constantly re-formats it to a date. If I change the formatting to "General" it turns it into a random number, usually 38209. I would like to turn off ALL auto-formatting, but that's probably asking too much. How do I disable this frustrating feature? thanks. Hi Paul When you enter "8-10" in a cell, that's not strictly a number but Excel thinks you mean a date so converts it as such.
