Before calling CreateObject check if GetObject returns an object. If it
does, see whether the file is already in the Workbooks collection before
calling Workbooks.Open.

thanks Michael

getting the info into the spreadsheet now

the code runs great from outlook and is much quicker with the spreadsheet open

one thing i would like but cant get is to bring the excel spreadsheet to the
front after inseting the data as there is a field i need to manual update.

i have tried all the variations i can think of on MyApp and MyApp.workbook
ie select,show,visible.activate but cant get the spreadsheet to the front

regards

pete
 
That's how it works as Excel is another process, and the last line of code
executed is always in Outlook, which brings Outlook up to the front. You
could minimize the current Outlook window, or use some Win32 API functions
in order to find the Excel window.
