Default Workbooks property

Either of these should work, depending on which workbook is active and which
contains the code that is running.


ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
Workbooks(myFile & "-" & date) SaveChanges:=False

Using date as a variable in not a good idea since Date is a reserved word in
VB.
If you use it as a variable then it should be modified. i.e. myDate, edate,
etc.
Otherwise, it can create problems during runtime.

The file has already been saved. I am copying data from this file and
pasting it to another workbook. I am just looking to close the workbook now.

You can't add the date and us SaveChanges = False. It won't save anything.

For the life of me I can not remember how to add a variable name to a file
path.
I have converted a file from text to xls and have saved it as myfile - date
in mmddyy

I have tried workbooks("myfile-"&date).close savechanges:=false.

but it does not like that.
