I am trying to use a macro that will open another workbook and press the button that is on the sheet "Instructions" then close the workbook after the task has been done. I have a list of name in column B so the action can be done on multiple worksheets. When I run my code is get the error: 400

Code:
Sub AllITMFTM()

Dim B As Range

For Each B In Range("B3", Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp))
Workbooks.Open "D:\Documents\RM\Projects\New ITMFTM\" & B.Value & " ITMFTM Tool V1.3.xlsm"
Application.Run "'" & B.Value & "ITMFTM Tool V1.3.xlsm'!Instructions.CopyDataOver"
Workbooks(B.Value & "ITMFTM Tool V1.3.xlsm").Close SaveChanges = False
Next B

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
Put the "AllITMFTM" macro inside a module.
Check the name of the file, before " ITMFTM" there is a space.


Try this:


Code:
Sub AllITMFTM()
    Dim B As Range, wPath As String
    
    wPath = "D:\Documents\RM\Projects\New ITMFTM\"
    For Each B In Range("B3", Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp))
        Workbooks.Open wPath & B.Value & [COLOR=#ff0000]" ITMFTM[/COLOR] Tool V1.3.xlsm"
        Application.Run "'" & B.Value & [COLOR=#ff0000]" ITMFTM[/COLOR] Tool V1.3.xlsm'![COLOR=#0000ff]CopyDataOver[/COLOR]"
        Workbooks(B.Value & [COLOR=#ff0000]" ITMFTM[/COLOR] Tool V1.3.xlsm").Close SaveChanges = False
    Next B
End Sub
