a 1004 disk is full error when I try and open a file using: Workbooks.Open Filename:=inputfolder & "\" & inputfile, ReadOnly:=True I have also tried this with the filepath and name hard-coded, with the same result.

with hard-coded full path to file. If it does, then check your variables.

VBA module contains the following code: Workbooks.Open ("mybook.xlsm") If "mybook.xlsm" does not exist, then my VBA code will crash immediately and the user will see an error dialog box, plus the VBA program will stop running runtime error 1004 vba as well. If Workbooks.Open() fails, can I somehow instruct VBA to detour to some alternate code rather than crashing?? For example, can I use code somewhat similiar to below: If Workbooks.Open("mybook.xlsm") = FILE_WAS FOUND? then MsgBox "File was found and opened" Else MsgBox "Sorry, the file was NOT found! Try again!" ' Then ask user to select a new file End If thank u Robert Crandal, Dec 5, 2009 #1 Advertisements http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24867818/excel-vba-workbooks-open-event-giving-a-runtime-error-1004-the-disk-is-full Per Jessen Guest Hi Use the error handler to avoid the crash, and assign the opened workbook to a variable, so you can test if it was opened.
