Wildcard to open file

charlesdh · #1 07-15-2018, 04:21 PM

Hi,

I'm trying to open files by using the wildcard. But, after research it appears that we cannot use WildCard.
I have file that are named with dates Ie:
May 31,2018 JoeHome'' example only.
Also "May 2018 JoeAgain" example.

I know I can have the user select the file to open, but would like to have it done by VBA.

Any help appreciated!

Thanks
