Hi, You can create a reference to the rexcelvbalib project (this is the Rxcel.xla) and after this you can use e.g. something similar to this
Sub chkR() If RExcelVBAlib.RConnected And Not (RExcelVBAlib.My_R Is Nothing) Then MsgBox "R is running" Else MsgBox "R is not running" End If End Sub By the way your logo is very nice.
