Default Module / Sub as string

no that is the point I made, if the last module you updated was module 3 that
module seems to retain the active setting. I don't know how to set the
module for the sub you are running, as the active code window, or perhaps
some other method needs to be found

Hi Richard

I've ran code like this

Sub test3()
ClientName = Application.VBE.ActiveCodePane.CodeModule.Name
MsgBox ClientName
End Sub

placed in three different modules. They all returned "Module3", not the
module containing the running code. Am I missing something ?

Best wishes Harald

I got it,

Dim ClientName As String

ClientName = Application.VBE.ActiveCodePane.CodeModule.Name

This enables me to give each module the client name, which in turn allows
me
to use the ClientName string as part of the file path. No need to search
through and make code changes for each new client and the sub name can be
whatever I like, which is handy as in some cases I have more than 1 sub
for
the same client.

Hi R

Afaik no, sorry. It would make error handling far easier if it was.

Hi

Is it possible to read either the module and/or the sub name and use it
as
a
string within the code?

R
