Hi there,

I am not sure why your code is not working.

but here is one that does

Sub Delete_WB()
sName = ThisWorkbook.Name
sName = Left(sName, Len(sName) - 4) & "X.xls"
Windows(sName).Activate
ActiveWindow.Close

fName = ThisWorkbook.FullName
pName = Left(fName, Len(fName) - 4) & "X.xls"

Kill pName
End Sub

I have two WorkBooks (in the same directory) open Test and TestX. From
Test
I want to close and delete TestX. The code I am ussing is;

Sub Delete WB()
sName = ThisWorkbook.FullName
sName = Left(sName, Len(sName) - 4) & "X.xls"
Workbooks("sName").Close SaveChanges:=False
Kill "sName"
End Sub

It errors on the close statement. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
