Test or check if sheet exists

Dim wkbkdestination As Workbook
Dim destsheet As Worksheet

For Each ThisWorkSheet In wkbkorigin.Worksheets 
    'this throws subscript out of range if there is not a sheet in the destination 
    'workbook that has the same name as the current sheet in the origin workbook.
    Set destsheet = wkbkdestination.Worksheets(ThisWorkSheet.Name) 
Next

Basically I loop through all sheets in the origin workbook then set destsheet in the destination workbook to the sheet with the same name as the currently iterated one in the origin workbook.

How can I test if that sheet exists? Something like:

If wkbkdestination.Worksheets(ThisWorkSheet.Name) Then 

Some folk dislike this approach because of an "inappropriate" use of error handling, but I think it's considered acceptable in VBA... An alternative approach is to loop though all the sheets until you find a match.

Function WorksheetExists(shtName As String, Optional wb As Workbook) As Boolean
    Dim sht As Worksheet

    If wb Is Nothing Then Set wb = ThisWorkbook
    On Error Resume Next
    Set sht = wb.Sheets(shtName)
    On Error GoTo 0
    WorksheetExists = Not sht Is Nothing
End Function

If you are specifically interested in worksheets only, you can use a simple Evaluate call:

Function WorksheetExists(sName As String) As Boolean
    WorksheetExists = Evaluate("ISREF('" & sName & "'!A1)")
End Function

You don't need error handling in order to accomplish this. All you have to do is iterate over all of the Worksheets and check if the specified name exists:

Dim exists As Boolean

For i = 1 To Worksheets.Count
    If Worksheets(i).Name = "MySheet" Then
        exists = True
    End If
Next i

If Not exists Then
    Worksheets.Add.Name = "MySheet"
End If

As checking for members of a collection is a general problem, here is an abstracted version of @Tim's answer:

Function Contains(objCollection As Object, strName as String) As Boolean
    Dim o as Object
    On Error Resume Next
    set o = objCollection(strName)
    Contains = (Err.Number = 0)
    Err.Clear
 End Function

This function can be used with any collection like object (Shapes, Range, Names, Workbooks, etc.).

To check for the existence of a sheet, use If Contains(Sheets, "SheetName") ...


Corrected: Without error-handling:

Function CheckIfSheetExists(SheetName As String) As Boolean
      CheckIfSheetExists = False
      For Each WS In Worksheets
        If SheetName = WS.name Then
          CheckIfSheetExists = True
          Exit Function
        End If
      Next WS
End Function
