I’d rather use the code listed first (TestByWorkbookName), but it didn’t work for me.

You didn’t set wb, how will it know what to compare the name to?

How do I set wb to know all currently open workbooks?

Thanks Rob, that does look better.

BTW, Nice site! The 3D model rotate tool is amazing, I’ll link it later today.

Hi.

The code which I use and the most common on newsgroups is as follows:

Sub test()
Dim wkb As Workbook

On Error Resume Next
Set wkb = Workbooks("New Microsoft Excel Worksheet.xls")
On Error GoTo 0

If Not wkb Is Nothing Then MsgBox "Found it"
End Sub

Cheers,
Rob
