Default Repost: Is Workbook already open?

This is a repost from 4 days ago. I have searched the discussion group but my
original question seems to have vanished.

Is there any code I can use in my macros to establish if a certain workbook
is already open by another user on our network, regardless if it is "read
only" or not?

Any help would be appreciated.
