Hello there,

I'm running a VB program that call excel and manipulates workbooks and
I use the following code to get excel open from VB.

Dim xlapp As excel.Application
Set xlapp = CreateObject("excel.application")

However this always results in a new Excel instance and ignores any
already open instances of excel. I would like an existing instance to
be activated and if none exists, open a new one.

Is this possible?

Mahesh
