Trying to put a snip of code at the beginning of an Add-In I've created that will check to make sure the required worksheet exists before it tries to run the code (to avoid error).

Below is not working. Any direction/guidance is appreciated.


HTML:
Dim sht As WorksheetDim wb As Workbook
If wb Is Nothing Then Set wb = ActiveWorkbook

On Error Resume NextSet sht = wb.Sheets(Table)If worksheetExists = sht ThenMsgBox ("The Sheet Table Exists. Click Ok to Format the UW Approval")

GoTo FormatApprovalElse
MsgBox ("This Add-In will only run if there is a worksheet tab titled 'TABLE'")Exit Sub
End If
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
You could use a function for that
Code:
Public Function ShtExists(ShtName As String, Optional Wbk As Workbook) As Boolean
    If Wbk Is Nothing Then Set Wbk = ActiveWorkbook
    On Error Resume Next
    ShtExists = (LCase(Wbk.Sheets(ShtName).Name) = LCase(ShtName))
    On Error GoTo 0
End Function
And called like
Code:
   If Not ShtExists("Sheet1") Then
      MsgBox "sheets doesn't exist"
   End If
or
Code:
   Set Wb = Workbooks("Fluff.xlsm")
   If Not ShtExists("sheet1", Wb) Then
      MsgBox
   End If
