Name Statement
Renames a disk file, directory, or folder.
Syntax
Name oldpathname As newpathname
The Name statement syntax has these parts:
Part Description
oldpathname Required. String expression that specifies the existing
file name and location - may include directory or folder, and drive.
newpathname Required. String expression that specifies the new file
name and location - may include directory or folder, and drive. The file
name specified by newpathname can't already exist.
Remarks
The Name statement renames a file and moves it to a different directory or
folder, if necessary. Name can move a file across drives, but it can only
rename an existing directory or folder when both newpathname and oldpathname
are located on the same drive. Name cannot create a new file, directory, or
folder.
Using Name on an open file produces an error. You must close an open file
before renaming it. Name arguments cannot include multiple-character (*) and
single-character (?) wildcards.

C:\HOLD has 2 files in it: FILE1.csv, FILE2.csv.
I need to move the files from C:\HOLD to C:\WORK.
The Excel Help information did not include examples of how Move and
Movefile are actually put into practical code, and I've given up tearing
my
hair out, trying to make it work.
Could somebody please show me the code.
TIA
Paul
