If Then to check if a workbook is open

S

Shawn

I have a workbook names "Space.xls" and when a certain macro is run it goes
and pulls date from a workbook named "Moon.txt". This all works fine.

However, I need a code that will look to see if "Moon.txt" is open and if it
is not to skip that part of the code.

This code will open if closed or activate if open. Works from a workbook
name typed in a cell.

Sub GetWorkbook()
If ActiveCell.Value = "" Then Exit Sub
workbookname = ActiveCell.Value
On Error GoTo OpenWorkbook
Windows(workbookname & ".xls").Activate
Exit Sub
OpenWorkbook:
Workbooks.Open(workbookname & ".xls").RunAutoMacros xlAutoOpen
End Sub

That isn't exactly what I need. When the macro is running it gets to a line
that says:

Windows("Moon.txt").Activate

I need a If Then statement something like:

If Window("Moon.txt") Open Then
Window("Moon.txt").Activate
etc. etc. etc.
End If

Did you try deleting the first line and changing the 2nd line

workbookname = ActiveCell.Value
workbookname = "moon"

and changing .xls to .txt

On Error Resume Next
Set oWB = Workbooks("Moon.txt")
On Error Goto 0
If Not oWB Is Nothing Then
'do the stuff
