Question : Excel - Check to see if workbook is already open

Hello,

I'm using C# to create an application that automates a lot of manual steps in Excel.  The application is working fine and all the automation is complete, there is a problem though if the Excel workbook is already open.  Is there a way to check to see if the workbook is already open before the program attempts to do anything with the workbook?

Thanks in advance.
