Hello,

I just wanna check if this excel VBA statement is correct:

Const DataPath = "U:\DATA\PROGRAM\"

Workbooks.Open Filename:=DataPath + "MOPS.XLS"

I need your advise. Thanks.

Sheela

Hi Sheela,

Yes, it is syntactically correct.

Workbooks.open DataPath & "Mops.xls"
Use & to join strings together
Hope this helps

Hi Sheela,

I have tested your code in Excel 2000 and it runs fine for me. Exactly
what error are you getting? Is the error occurring on the workbooks.open
line? Are you sure that the specified path is valid on the machine where the
code is executing, that the specified workbook exists in that path, and that
the profile you are logged in with has full permissions to this location?

Well, I tried that but it is still giving the error.
Actually, this macro was created in Excel 95. I want to
run in Excel 2000 and it gives me an error.
