or argument"

Please help

thank you,

If the path and file exists then the code line is correct. Are you
assigning this to a object? If so use

Set wbkNew = Workbooks.Open ("G:\ReportFiles\ReportTemplate.xls")

Directory is there, file is there, It even opens up when I execute the
macro but after opening the file, it returns the same error. Even if I
use your code it creates an error. When I click debug to see where the
error occured, it is the same line.

Is this because of the excel file that I am trying to open ?

I am only doing this because I have a seperate macro that need to be
done in :="G:\ReportFiles\ReportTemplate.xls"

Is there anyway I can run the macro from other workbook in the current
workbook?

if I do "Application.Run "ReportTemplate.xls'!Macro_B" will it work?

Did you create any subroutines/functions called Open?
Did you name any of your modules Open?

Nope :(

Sorry, I don't have another guess.

Does the code work in a brand new workbook's project?

I bet it does, so there's something bad going on in that original workbook.
