Hello all!
I have set up a function that loops through all the files in a certain folder and find & open a prior month's file and return that file name. However, when I run the function sometimes (not all the time) I get a run-time error 1004, file not found. I don't understand why this is since the loop is only running through the file names in that folder. The file to be opened is not in use by another user either. My code is below. Any insight would be amazing. Thanks. -- Cheers, Michelle "Anyone who says he can see through women is missing a lot."
