Does workbook contain code and links
Does anyone know of a way of finding out if a workbook
has a code module and/or links without opening the workbook. I'm writing an import process into an Access Database and I need to check the file before I open it. Thanks for any help |

Does workbook contain code and links
First, I know nothing about access, but if you're opening the workbook in excel
(via code), you can turn off the workbook_open macro, and not update the links. dim mywkbk as workbook application.enableevents = false set mywkbk = workbooks.open(filename:="....", updatelinks:=??, ...) application.enableevents = true Updatelinks has a few options. You can read about it in help. Paul Christie wrote: Does anyone know of a way of finding out if a workbook has a code module and/or links without opening the workbook.

Does workbook contain code and links
Dave,
Thanks for this I guess this will have to do. I just felt there ought to be a way of checking for code before you open it as a virus protection thing. Some companies in UK pass spreadsheets around as though a spreadsheet couldn't contain a virus but of course we know otherwise don't we.
