use current file and folder name
Is it possible to use the value of the file and folder name in a
macro? For example, when you rename/copy a file you want the following code to change: Windows("2007 Accounts.xls").Activate If you copy the file containing the macro it will want to activate the old file and it should activate the new file. Cheers, Harold |

If your code is in a general module, you can use ThisWorkbook, like:
Thisworkbook.windows(1).activate Or Thisworkbook.worksheets("somesheetnamehere").range ("a1").clearcontents If your code is behind the ThisWorkbook module, you can use the Me keyword. me.windows(1).activate me.worksheets("somesheetnamehere").range("a1").cle arcontents (me refers to the object that owns the code.) === (Actually, you can use ThisWorkbook in any module to refer to the workbook that owns the code.) mohavv wrote: Is it possible to use the value of the file and folder name in a macro?
