You can't open two files in excel with the same file name. I doubt there is
much you can do about that. The opening file can't do anything because it
never gets opened.

Hi There again,

I have created an excel file with sort of a workflow in it. Using buttons
the file is mailed from one to another, each time with a new status.
The users open the file most of the times from the attachment in the
e-mail.
This sometimes gives an error when a file, with the same filename, is
opened
a second time. When the computer is restarted the file can be openend
again.

Any suggestions anyone?
