Hi!

I am able to open the file I want using this:

Code:
Workbooks Range("bd1").Value & ".csv"

But how do I then close it later on?

If I understand how this works correctly, I need the full filepath to open a file (i.e. the value of cell BD1), but only the book name to close it, right?

In this particular instance, cell BD1 has the value "J:\DGR\DGR_Reports\DGRReportSupportFiles\dsr20140102", so I assume that, if I have a cell somewhere else with the value "dsr20140102" that I can write a code similar to the one above to close it...I just don't know what that would be.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Have you tried
Code:
Workbooks(Range("bd1").Value & ".csv").Close True
True- saves changes while false won't
