Replacing hard code with reference to a cell value
Hello,
Currently I am using the following line of code to specify the location of my database. MyConn = "S:\Mydatabase.mdb" Instead of hard coding the location of my database, I would like to enter the location in Cell A1 in Sheet2. How do I change this line of code so it would read the location of my database from whatever I type into cell A1 in Sheet2? Thanks! |

Activeworkbook could be ThisWorkbook if the that worksheet is in the same workbook with the code. Or even workbooks("myotherworkbook.xls").worksheets("sheet 2").range("a1").value jojo wrote: Hello, Currently I am using the following line of code to specify the location of my database.
