Test or check if sheet exists (23 answers)

Closed 6 years ago.

I'm wondering if there is clean cut functionality that returns True or False if a worksheet inside a workbook exists?

It would be good, but not essential, if it's possible to do it without skipping error handling.

The only thing I've found doesn't really work:

On Error Resume Next
If (Worksheets("wsName").Name <> "") Then
    Debug.Print "Worksheet exists!"
Else
    Debug.Print "Worksheet doesn't exist!"
End If
On Error GoTo ErrHandler

Answer 1

A version without error-handling:

Function sheetExists(sheetToFind As String) As Boolean
    sheetExists = False
    For Each sheet In Worksheets
        If sheetToFind = sheet.name Then
            sheetExists = True
            Exit Function
        End If
    Next sheet
End Function

Answer 2

There's no built-in function for this.

Function SheetExists(SheetName As String, Optional wb As Excel.Workbook)
   Dim s As Excel.Worksheet
   If wb Is Nothing Then Set wb = ThisWorkbook
   On Error Resume Next
   Set s = wb.Sheets(SheetName)
   On Error GoTo 0
   SheetExists = Not s Is Nothing
End Function

Answer 3

also a slightly different version. i just did a appllication.sheets.count to know how many worksheets i have additionallyl. well and put a little rename in aswell

Sub insertworksheet()
    Dim worksh As Integer
    Dim worksheetexists As Boolean
    worksh = Application.Sheets.Count
    worksheetexists = False
    For x = 1 To worksh
        If Worksheets(x).Name = "ENTERWROKSHEETNAME" Then
            worksheetexists = True
            'Debug.Print worksheetexists
            Exit For
        End If
    Next x
    If worksheetexists = False Then
        Debug.Print "transformed exists"
        Worksheets.Add after:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
        ActiveSheet.Name = "ENTERNAMEUWANTTHENEWONE"
    End If
End Sub

Answer 4

Another version of the function without error handling. This time it is not case sensitive and a little bit more efficient.

Function WorksheetExists(wsName As String) As Boolean
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim ret As Boolean        
    wsName = UCase(wsName)
    For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Sheets
        If UCase(ws.Name) = wsName Then
            ret = True
            Exit For
        End If
    Next
    WorksheetExists = ret
End Function

Answer 5

Slightly changed to David Murdoch's code for generic library

Function HasByName(cSheetName As String, _ 
                   Optional oWorkBook As Excel.Workbook) As Boolean

    HasByName = False
    Dim wb

    If oWorkBook Is Nothing Then
        Set oWorkBook = ThisWorkbook
    End If

    For Each wb In oWorkBook.Worksheets
        If wb.Name = cSheetName Then
            HasByName = True
            Exit Function
        End If
    Next wb
End Function
