Default file handling 2

Hi
This is still not working
If the disk is not inserted I get an error message and if
the file is there the msgbox still runs.
Thanks
Jo


Hello Jo,

It is easier to use the Dir command for this

myFile= Dir("A:\*w.xls")
If myFile="" then
MsgBox
Else Workbooks.Open Filename:= "A:\" & myFile

Try my original post

Dim oWb As Workbook

On Error Resume Next
Set oWb = ")
If oWb Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "File not found"
End If
On Error GoTo 0
