Using FileOpen

I am trying to
1. Get the file path from an excel sheet.
2. Open the text file for input.

Dim strFILENAME As String
strFILENAME = Sheet1.Range("E1").Value
FileOpen(1, "strFILENAME", OpenMode.Input)
...
blah = LineInput(1)


When compiling, I seem to have a syntax error on FileOpen an
LineInput. Any ideas of why this might be a problem?

Also what is the difference between using FileOpen and
Open strFILENAME For Input As #1 ? and FileClose and Close #1? If I d
the latter choices for both questions, am I able to use LineInput?

Thanks :
