running. Copy all to a module and let-her-rip (note: you
may need to do some clean up due to line wrapping in this
editor):

How do I get a list of all open Excel workbooks in WinXP?

How do I get a list of all open applications in WinXP?

I basically want to get a list of open Excel workbooks
and copy this
list into a sheet for a user to choose from. I may
eventually wish to
add a list of all open applications (Specifically, SPSS
applications).
