Testing if a file is open

Hi,

Can someone provide some direction on how to test if an Excel file is
currently open....not worried about whether it is active, just currently open.

I'm requesting the information from VBA for Word 2000. I've tried the
following:

if Excel.application.workbooks(vFileName).open = true
....
End if

It isn't working!

Any ideas would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Jille
