VBA Error on opening workbook - Cannot find workbook that is there



I'm attempting to open a workbook, but Excel gives me an error message saying that it cannot find the workbook.


Dim pricing As Workbook
dim fname As String

fname = Dir(ActiveWorkbook.Path & "Budget Pricing Detail*.csv")
Set pricing = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=fname, UpdateLinks:=False)



As you can see I'm using a wildcard to pull the file name as the last bit of the filename will be different for each instance. What's weird to me as that when Excel gives me the error box it actually names the WHOLE file (even though I never did in my code) I want it to find and says it can't find it. Also what's weird is that this was working already and all of a sudden now it isn't.

I think DIR only returns the filename, and not the entire path. Try:



fname = ActiveWorkbook.Path & "" & Dir(ActiveWorkbook.Path & "Budget Pricing Detail*.csv")


fname = ActiveWorkbook.Path & "" & Dir(ActiveWorkbook.Path & "Budget Pricing Detail*.csv")





That didn't work

@AP1 Sorry, had an extra slash. I have tried it here, and it works for me, now.

@AP1 If you debug it, can you see what value your fname holds?

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Arduino Mega cannot recieve any sketches, stk500_recv() programmer is not responding Yesterday we were trying to update the firmware of our 3D-printer a Tevo Tarantula i3 The printer was running Marlin 3D Printer Firmware. We installed a new module a TL-Touch Sensor, a chinese copy of the Bl-Touch an auto bedleveling touch sensor for a 3D printer. After re-configurating a new version of the firmware for our setup in the Arduino IDE we went on with uploading the sketch to the Arduino Mega that was controling our 3D printer. Before we started uploading we made sure the right COM-port was selected in the Arduino IDE and that also the right type of Arduino was selected. The Arduino Mega 2260. Then we started with compiling the firmware and then uploading it to the Mega, Somewhere in between that moment the IDE freezed and crashed. As a response we removed the USB cable that was connected from the PC uploading the firmware onto the Arduino Mega, (This was a st...
