I am working with an addin and if triggered from the menu, with no workbooks
open, how can I check to see if there are any workbooks open and if not,
prompt for one?

Thanks,
Jay

Sub ccc()
Dim bk As Workbook
Dim w As Window
If Workbooks.Count = 0 Then
'none open
MsgBox "Open a workbook"
Exit Sub
Else
' check for any visible
bVisible = False
For Each bk In Workbooks
For Each w In bk.Windows
Debug.Print w.Caption, w.Visible
If w.Visible = True Then

bVisible = True
End If
Next
Next
End If
if bVisible = false then
msgbox "Open a workbook"
exit sub
End if
' more code
End Sub

Thanks! I thought it would involve the workbooks.count, but when I tried it,
even thought no workbooks were visible, it had 1 for a count. But, that's
what your visible check is for... Thanks again!
