This works great!!! . I want to now change the network path to be on a SharePoint rather than a shared network path. When i attempted to change the network path it get me a error, &quot;bad file name or number&quot;... Can you assist on this ?
</div>


<div>
Can you map the SharePoint folder to a drive letter?
</div>


<div>
Ok, I don't have a SharePoint server to test it on, but try making the following changes:<br />
<br />
Change:<br />

<pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-42786242-1"><span>Const NetworkPath = &quot;C:\Data\Experts Exchange\Excel&quot;</span>
</code></pre>
to (obviously, you'll need to adjust for your environment):<br />

<pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-42786242-2"><span>Const NetworkPath = &quot;http://server//filepath&quot;</span>
</code></pre>
and a few lines down change:<br />

<pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-42786242-3"><span>fullPath = NetworkPath &amp; &quot;\&quot; &amp; Cells(1, 1) &amp; &quot;\&quot;</span>
</code></pre>
to:<br />

<pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-42786242-4"><span>fullPath = NetworkPath &amp; &quot;/&quot; &amp; Cells(1, 1) &amp; &quot;/&quot;</span>
</code></pre>
</div>


<div>
Thats what i had attempted to adjust but it gave me an error on the line below the &quot;fullPath..&quot;
</div>


<div>
I guess the Dir function doesn't work for SharePoint ... give me &nbsp;few minutes to rewrite it using the FileSystemObject.
</div>


<div>
Please see the modified file attached ... Note the 2 places you need to change for SharePoint.<br />
Again, sorry that I can't test it ...<br />

I didnt work. It gave me an error on &quot;set objFolder...&quot; <br />
I will just continue to using the network path. Thank you so much sir.
</div>


<div>
If you want to try something ... I don't have SharePoint to try it with, but I've seen the SharePoint path expressed in 3 different ways:<br />
<br />
&quot;<a href="http://server/filepath" rel="ugc">http://server/filepath</a>&quot;&nbsp; (you've tried this)<br />
<br />
&quot;//server/filepath&quot; &nbsp; (no <a href="http" rel="ugc">http</a>:) &nbsp; &nbsp;or<br />
<br />
&quot;//server//filepath&quot; &nbsp;(double slash after the server)<br />
<br />
Maybe one of the remaining 2 variations will work for you ... ??
</div>


<div>
You can also insert the following line:<br />

<pre><code class="code-1 nolinks" id="code-20-42786265-1"><span>MsgBox (&quot;Full path: &quot; &amp; fullPath)</span>
</code></pre>
...right before <b>Set objFolder</b> ...<br />
to make sure that the format looks correct.

Macro To Open And Copy A Workbook Into Another Workbook

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Office is an integrated suite of applications that includes Outlook, Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Visio and InfoPath, along with a number of tools to assist in making the individual components work together. Coding within and between the projects is done in Visual Basic for Applications, known as VBA.
