Default Is worksheet open

Hi

I have built a user defined function which will reference a cell in an
external workbook. The idea is to make it easier to consolidate data into a
master sheet. The workbooks that I reference are created by another
application. Every month, a series of workbooks will be generated and the
idea is that the user only needs to tweak a few values in order to get the
data to the master sheet.

I may end up with something like this: '[05-000090-00_200512.xls]Subtask
#1'!$E$4
Before I evaluate this expression, I would like to know whether the workbook
05-000090-00_200512.xls is open

Since this is a UDF, I dont think I can do something like
Set wb = Application.Workbooks("05-000090-00_200512").Activate

How can I test whether the workbook is open?
