Hi folks,
Im writing a Macro that opens another workbook. Both workbooks are in the same folder, always. But the folder is always changing. Can I use relative address reference on the macro instead of qriting the whole address?

Thx!

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Can you not use the path of the workbook the code is in to open the other workbook?
Code:
Set wbThis = ThisWorkbook ' create reference to workbook code is in
 
Set wbOther = Workbooks.Open (ThisWorkbook.Path & "\OtherWorkbookName.xls")
