How to get the value oa an optionbutton from another workbook
I want to get the value of the optionbutton from another workbook
without opening it and let the user choose the workbook. It works fine when the workbook is open but when it is closed i get runtime error 9 subscript out of range. Sub macro1() begin: Dim Fname Dim z, x, c, v As Variant Dim N As Long Dim pathname Dim targetpath Dim filename Dim filenametf As Workbook pathname = ActiveWorkbook.Path use: ChDrive [pathname] ChDir [pathname] Fname = Application.GetOpenFilename(filefilter:="Excel Files (*.xls), *.xls") MsgBox (Fname) Set filenametf = Workbooks(Dir(Fname)) v = filenametf.Worksheets("sheet1").OptionButton1.Valu e MsgBox (v) end sub Thanks for looking |

Not possible, at least not in any conventional way. Why not Link the
optionbutton to a cell, search this ng for ways to read cell values (ie the linked cell) in a closed workbook. Regards, Peter T "George M" wrote in message ps.com...
