Hello,
This is the macro (also partly with your help) where I select a sheet and import it into a workbook. When cells are not the same the sheet is not imported else the sheet is imported. But I also want a message when the macrobutton is hit and the sheet doesn't exist in c:\temp and the macro is ended. I've tried "On error goto..:" and a msgbox file not found but then when the file exists I still get the msgbox.

Code:
Workbooks.Open Filename:="c:\temp\Test1.xls"
    If Sheets("Test 1").[G1] <> Workbooks("Book1").Sheets("Test2").[G5] Then

MsgBox "Wrong sheet!"
Windows("Test1.xls").Activate
    ActiveWindow.Close saveChanges:=False

Else
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Sheets("test 1").Copy Before:=Workbooks("Book1"). _
    Sheets(1)
    Windows("Test1.xls").Activate
    ActiveWindow.Close saveChanges:=False
    Sheets("Test 1").Select
    Range("A4").Select

End If

End Sub

:rolleyes:
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
something like this may help

Code:
If Len(Dir("c:\temp\Test1.xls")) = 0 Then
    MsgBox "c:\temp\Test1.xls does NOT exist!"
    Exit Sub
End If

Workbooks.Open Filename:="c:\temp\Test1.xls"

If Sheets("Test 1").[G1] <> Workbooks("Book1").Sheets("Test2").[G5] Then
    MsgBox "Wrong sheet!"
    Windows("Test1.xls").Activate
    ActiveWindow.Close saveChanges:=False
Else
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Sheets("test 1").Copy Before:=Workbooks("Book1"). _
    Sheets(1)
    Windows("Test1.xls").Activate
    ActiveWindow.Close saveChanges:=False
    Sheets("Test 1").Select
    Range("A4").Select
End If

End Sub
