In VBA I need to be able to Open and when finished Close an Excel File.

weeks in a year.
The 1st two (2) positions in the file name are unique.
How would I go about this using VBA?
.
Thanks in advanced.

Dick,
Here is how you open and close a file in VB. Hopefully this will get
you on your way.
Sub OpenThenClose()
Workbooks.Open Filename:="G:\DPE-IPE\DPE REVISIONS\All Press
Ips.xls"
'First you need to know where the file is located and the name
'Do your code as it were open
Workbooks.Close Filename:="G:\DPE-IPE\DPE REVISIONS\All Press
Ips.xls"
End Sub
