I'm having a few problems when one workbook is open, then another
containing macros is opened (while the first is still open). The
macro's cease up in this situation and they do funny things.

So, I am wondering if there is a test procedure to check if there is a
workbook open, and if so, then I can send a

Sub TestWrkBks()
* If...'OtherWorkbooksAreOpen?'...Then
MsgBox "Please close all other workbooks and try again"
ActiveWorkbook.Close
End if
End Sub

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

kartune85,
If other workbooks cause problems, it is probably because your code is not
clearly working only on ThisWorkbook.

If you add a
With ThisWorkbook
With .Worksheets(Whatever)
.Range(.....

other workbooks should not have an effect.

Thanks for the advice NickHK.

Altho I've still got a slight problem with that I've used
"ThisWorkbook" but from my code I've created a second workbook which is
automatically named "Book1, Book2, Book3..." and I've got code in
"ThisWorkbook" that moves a sheet from itself to the newly created
workbook.

There's a conflict when someone tries to start a new Workbook while
another one is still open and then "ThisWorkbook" tries to move a sheet
from itself to "Workbooks(2)". Thus the confusion cause I think it gets
confused as to which one is "Workbooks(2)" (Book1 or OldBook).

How can I refer to the newly created workbook without it getting
confused with other workbooks that are already opened?

If there is some kind of testing procedure to stop the workbook from
opening if there's others open would come in quite handy.

kartune85,
Dim NewWB As WorkBook
Set NewWB=Workbook.Add (..../ Workbook.Open (....

Now you can use this reference to the newly added WB in subsequent code and
it does not matter how many other WBs are open. e.g
NewWB.Worksheets(1).Range....
