Evening,

Never seen this message before but now see it say 4 times in two weeks.
Clicking YES on the message then shows second screen shot
See screen shot supplied.


I have a worksheet which has command buttons.
Each command button opens a worksheet.

Here is a code that is common.

I use these worksheets most days & no changes have been made & they worked BUT now this ??

Rich (BB code):
Private Sub ObdToolInfo_Click()
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\REMOTES ETC\DR\EXCEL WORKSHEETS\OBD TOOL INFO.xlsm"
End Sub

Excel Facts

Spell Check in Excel
Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
If you manually open the file do you get the same message?
Could the method/process you use to get OBD TOOL INFO.xlsm generate a corrupted file periodically?
Try using

VBA Code:
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\REMOTES ETC\DR\EXCEL WORKSHEETS\OBD TOOL INFO.xlsm", CorruptLoad:=True

I would guess that you have a bad sector on your drive or the file was imported from another machine and got corrupted in the transfer.

Thanks for the reply.
Since I posted it I’ve opened each worksheet many times and no longer see this message so I assume now all is well.

I had moved the files from one workbook to there own worksheet.
Somewhere along that path they must have run into a problem but I think it’s all sorted now.
Have a nice day.

It looks like you created an invalid named range at some point.
