Yes I can....

Has some serious troubles resolving this issue.
I had same problem with some objets in excel not all and only the second
time I ran the code.

The first time it works, the second time I got object errors.
When you close and reopen access it works again for 1 time.

It has to do with early binding and not closing object properly.

I see your code already uses late binding but you should verify if you
properly quit excel after setting all object to nothing..

Particaly when developping you sometime stop the code to run and by that
not closing the objects properly. Closing access an reopen is your only
option at that moment.

Often forgotten is when you leave the function after an error has ocured
not to close objects. Objects need to be closed to when leaving a
function after an error.

John,

It works in my debug window too but not in a form code module.  I don't
know why there's a difference.

Thanks,

Jim DeMarco

Jim,

Given the path and name of an Excel sheet on my pc, this seems to work 
ok and gives the following in the debug window:

 2
ThisWorkbook
 2
Sheet1
 2

If you have more than A97 installed on your test machine, check that the

references are actually set and all match the version of office your 
running.

HTH,

John Sullivan
