Default Auto_Open and global variable

I have tried to save the name of the opened file to variable, so that I can
use it in other modules and worksheets. I have the following auto_open sub:


Sub auto_open()
Global filename As Variant
filename = Application.ThisWorkbook.Name

End Sub

This doesn't work, I have the Compile error message: Invalid attribute in
Sub or Function. Auto_open sub in the module, so what is wrong in this code?
Or is there any other way to do this?
