Default Code to open new workbook

Ladies & Gents,

I wish to update my macros to open new workbooks with the required number of
spreadsheets. I have the following function, but am unable to get it to
work (I'm not too confidant with functions);

Function NewWorkbook(wsCount As Integer) As Workbook
' creates a new workbook with wsCount (1 to 255) worksheets
Dim OriginalWorksheetCount As Long
Set NewWorkbook = Nothing
If wsCount < 1 Or wsCount 255 Then Exit Function
OriginalWorksheetCount = Application.SheetsInNewWorkbook
Application.SheetsInNewWorkbook = wsCount
Set NewWorkbook = Workbooks.Add
Application.SheetsInNewWorkbook = OriginalWorksheetCount
End Function

Can anybody give me some clues either on how to get this function to work
within a macro? Or does anyone have some code that will open a new workbook
with a specified number of spreadsheet?


Thanks in advance
Andrew
