Default cannot close workbook

Can somebody pse help me with this one.

I have 3 workbooks open. W(1) has the VBA code to copy
data from W(2) to W(3).

W(2) & W (3) are opened with:-

Workbooks.Open Filename:=" address "

do stuff

I then want to close W(2) and not to save but

Workbooks("W(2) Name").Activate
ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False .....Fails here

& keeps returning Error 9 - "Subscript out of range"
Can someone pse help me?
Thankyou.

Default cannot close workbook

If the workbook is saved with the file name W(2).xls use:

WorkBooks("W(2).xls").Close SaveChanges:=False

If W is an object variable array use:

W(2).Close SaveChanges:=False
