When using Thisworkbook sub to put the workbook's name as a variable, how do I take off the ".xlsm" so that I can use the name as a variable in "Workbooks("name").Sheets("....").Range("...") etc etc
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
On my Mac, the extention is requried.
Workbooks("Workbook1") will give an error, while Workbooks("Workbook1.xlsm") doesn't.


Does this line error for you?
Code:
MsgBox CStr(Workbooks(ThisWorkbook.Name).Worksheets(1).Range("A1").Value)
