Does an object exist?
I need to find an object (in this case, a picture) on a worksheet, and if it
exists, delete it. I will know ahead of time the name of the object, but how can I avoid an error message by trying to delete it if it's not there? |

it? "Paul Pedersen" wrote in message ... I need to find an object (in this case, a picture) on a worksheet, and if it exists, delete it. I will know ahead of time the name of the object, but how can I avoid an error message by trying to delete it if it's not there? |
