playing around with the codes. Thanks.

Hey guys-

I need a macro to open a file in a separate window so that I can view the
current file and the new file side by side. My current macro is opening the
file within the same window. I also need a message box that will say "Can
not file file" if the macro cannot find the file. My current macro opens the
message box regardless if if finds the file or not. Can someone
help???????????!!!!!!!!!!!1


Sub open_Wiresheet()
On Error GoTo Exits

Application.Workbooks.Open ("O:\SEM\Common\Accounting\Mar-07 Wire Transfer
Schedule.xls")

Exits: reply = Msgbox("Cannot find file. Please open file manually", vbOK
Or vbQuestion)

If reply = vbOK Then

Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
