I am on a new laptop so maybe something needs to change so the macro can be used when I change laptops or provide to others.
The marco is used to create a pivot table based on data downloaded from PeopleSoft. The name of the file will always be different.
It's a bit different pivot table because I want the text where it would normally be numbers.
I found out how to do that using this link - Pivot Table With Text in Values Area
Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm getting the error above at this section of the code:
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlExternal, SourceData:= _
ActiveWorkbook.Connections( _
"WorksheetConnection_ActiveSheet!Table1"), Version _
:=8).CreatePivotTable TableDestination:="Sheet2!R3C1", TableName:= _
"PivotTable3", DefaultVersion:=8

The full code:
Sub Master_Contact_List()
'
' Master_Contact_List Macro

Dim MasterContactList As Workbook
Set MasterContactList = ActiveWorkbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim rg As Range
Set rg = ActiveCell.CurrentRegion

Set ws = rg.Parent

Rows("1:1").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
Range("A1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ws.ListObjects.Add(xlSrcRange, rg, , xlYes).Name = _
"Table1"
