When I have two instances of Excel, how can I reference the OTHER
Workbook in the OTHER instance of Excel?
I’m trying something like this:
SaveFile = Left(imgElement.Title, 27)
MsgBox "Saving changes to " & SaveFile & " and checking this file into
SharePoint now!!", vbSystemModal
Dim savepath As String
savepath = strPath & "/" & SaveFile
Dim GetActiveWB As String
GetActiveWB = ActiveWorkbook.path & "/" & SaveFile
Set wb = Workbooks(GetActiveWB)
wb.Activate
wb.CheckIn SaveChanges:=True, Comments:=""
wb.Close
Now, I’m getting a ‘subscript out of range’ message right he
Set wb = Workbooks(GetActiveWB)
How can I reference this Workbook (variable is ‘SaveFile’) and save it
to SharePoint, from a different INSTANCE of Excel?
Thanks!!

I’m trying to reference a file that is open, but not active. What is
wrong with thisa methodology?
SaveFile = Left(imgElement.Title, 27)
Fname = strPath & "/" & SaveFile
BookName = Mid(Fname, InStrRev(Fname, "/") + 1)
Set wb = Workbooks(Index:=BookName)
wb.Activate
wb.CheckIn SaveChanges:=True, Comments:=""
wb.Close
Code fails on this line:
Set wb = Workbooks(Index:=BookName)
Error mssg is ‘subscript out of range’
Any thoughts?
Thanks!!
