Open existing file
Hi FinChase
If the user doesn't select a file, GetOpenFilename returns False (Boolean
value). If the user however selects one or more files GetOpenFilename
returns an array of variants.
Try this:
Sub SelectBookToOpen()
Dim FileToOpen As Variant
Dim MyPath As String
Dim Wb As Workbook
Dim i As Integer
MyPath = "T:\Archive"
ChDrive "T"
ChDir MyPath
FileToOpen = Application.GetOpenFilename("Excel Files (*.xls), *.xls", ,
_
"Please select both previous and current weeks' Data Archives", , True)
If VarType(FileToOpen) < vbBoolean Then
For i = 1 To UBound(FileToOpen)
Set Wb = Workbooks.Open(FileToOpen(i))
Next
Else
'User canceled
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub

I am trying to open existing files in Excel. I am using the
GetOpenFilename
method to select the files.
Sub SelectBookToOpen()
Dim FileToOpen As Variant
Dim MyPath As String
Dim Wb As Workbook
MyPath = "T:\Archive"
ChDrive "T"
ChDir MyPath
FileToOpen = Application.GetOpenFilename("Excel Files (*.xls), *.xls",
, _
"Please select both previous and current weeks' Data Archives", ,
True)
If FileToOpen < False Then
Set Wb = Workbooks.Open(FileToOpen)
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Everything works fine until I actually select a file and click Open. Then
I
get a data mismatch error on this line: If FileToOpen < False Then
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks, Lee
