I prompt a user to select the file they want. They do
this for three different files. I would like to create a variable with the file name only. That way, later in the program, I would like to refer to the appropriate workbook based on the file name they selected. For instance, I would like to do something like this: Workbooks (vFileName1).Activate or Workbooks (vFileName2).Close The variables I have created so far also contain the path. My variable looks like this: Workbooks (C:\MyDocs\File1.xls) Is it possible to create a variable with only the file name and not the entire path? Thanks for the help. |
