Be aware, however, that when using this syntax it is dangerous to open another instance of Excel because the code may grab it as the "active" sheet (after all it is!) and get totally confused. Many times I have had code running to manipulate hidden Excel workbooks, forgotten, opened an Excel workbook attachment on an email only to have the VBA program suffer a nervous breakdown.
