You might see if the Workbook Container or IsInPlace properties are of any
help.

| Hi,
|
| Does anyone know if it is possible to detect whether a workbook is
| being run under Internet Explorer or within Excel itself. I want to
| prevent people running my workbooks/s under IE as it seems to cause too
| many problems - as Dave Peterson pointed out. Instead I want to
| display a message telling people to follow the instructions in
| http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=162059
|
| The only way I can see is to examine registry keys. But would this
| cause problems for people without administrative access to their PC?
| Is there an easy way to do this?
|
| Any help appreciated.
