thanks,In the workbook, that you would like to open in minimized state write the following code in open event of the workbook:
Code:Private Sub Workbook_Open() ActiveWindow.WindowState = xlMinimized End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
With ActiveWindow
.WindowState = xlNormal
.Height = 400
.Width = 500
.Left = (Application.UsableWidth * 0.25) + 1

End Sub
