Insomniac,

Why should anyone shoot You down? We don't do that on this board
(Remember that You're not at ...... now )

Anyway, yes they are hardcoded as I didn?t write a generic solution.
(Is that a requirement for posting?)

Feel free to write a generic solutions where the number of workbooks to be checked are changed as well as their names and post it in this thread

BTW, welcome to the board
Dennis
