Title: How to tell if there are other visio files open?
Post by: matthew on November 13, 2020, 05:40:33 PM

Hi, can anyone tell me if there is a way for my visio vba code to tell if there is 1 or more other visio files open (when you don't know what they are called)? I know it sounds like a simple thing to be able to do but I don't know how to start and can't find any references, any suggestions would be very welcome, thanks, Matthew

Do you mean, open in the same Visio application?

All these documents are open in single Visio application session?

Then you can just check the collection of documents, it will list all open documents:

Code Select


For Each doc In Application.Documents
    Debug.Print doc.FullName
Next
