    Need to know who has excel file locked

    Hey there peoples ,

    Need help. I know if you click on a excel spreadsheet and it has been
    locked for editing by someone else a dialog box displays showing who
    has it locked. I have a access application where I open a excel file
    using VB. Is there a way to capture who has the excel file locked using
    VB . In fact retreiving the same information that displays in the "File
    locked for editing" that excel displays

    Thanks
    Sala

    if you open the file as read only, you shouldn't see that message. unless you
    have some other reason for wanting to know.

    something like this:

    Workbooks.Open Filename:=fpath & fname, _
    ReadOnly:=True, UpdateLinks:=3
