Default Put Filename Variable in Macro

I have a macro that stores the full path/filename of a file that is needed in
another macro to cell B8 on a sheet named Index. This sets the file location
which can vary by location.
Another macro uses this file to post data to from the current workbook. I'm
having trouble getting the macro to use the filename variable stored in cell
B8.
Can you help? Here is the code that's in question:

Dim wbSum As Workbook, wbData As Workbook
Dim sht
Dim FName As Variant
FName = Worksheets("Index").Range("B8")
Set wbSum = FName <==Here's the problem line!
Set wbData = ActiveWorkbook
Dim iDate As Date, iValue
Dim lastcol As Long, xV As Long, xR As Long, xC As Long
Workbooks.Open (Filename)
