HI,

I have the code below and it was working fine (Open excel file from outlook) but suddenly getting this error:

Compile Error:
Method or data member not found (on the line below)

Code:
Set xWb = xExcelApp.Workbooks.Open(xExcelFile)


Complete code:

Code:
Public Sub OpenVendorChartofAcounts() Dim xExcelFile As String
    Dim xExcelApp As Excel.Application
    Dim xWb As Excel.Workbook
    Dim xWs As Excel.Worksheet
    Dim xExcelRange As Excel.Range
    xExcelFile = "\\mtlnas01\share\Accountant Files\AP Team\Jose\NCL_XLSM\CHART OF ACCOUNTS.xlsm"
    Set xExcelApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
    Set xWb = xExcelApp.Workbooks.Open(xExcelFile)
    Set xWs = xWb.Sheets(1)
    xWs.Activate
    Set xExcelRange = xWs.Range("A1")
    xExcelRange.Activate
    xExcelApp.Visible = True
    xWb.Windows(1).WindowState = xlMaximized
    
End Sub

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.
Hi,
Not sure about the reason of the issue, check the absence of the 'MISSING:...' items in VBE-Tools-References
You may also try this - Set xExcelApp = New Excel.Application instead of the code line with CreateObject

Is there any code in the Workbook_Open event of that workbook?

... the other files open from outlook opens ok same code just this one
If code is working with other workbooks then my suggestion in post 2 can't help.
However, one of the problem can be in a fact that XLSMs is blocked.
How to unblock XLSM read in this page of JKP site.
