I've tried checking for an error code each time I open a file, but the user
gets an error message from Excel and it stops the program.

Any suggestions?

Hi laavista

You can loop through only the excel files and if it can't open the file skip it

I'm using Excel 2003.

Using VBA, I am looping through a number of excel files, extracting data
from each, and writing that data into another excel spreadsheet.

Occasionally, there is a Word document in the directory, and once there was
a corrupt Excel spreadsheet.

How do I check if the excel file that I'm trying to open is corrupt or not
in an Excel format?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!
