I'm hoping I make this clear. I'm using Excel 2007 and several years ago, all of a sudden, it took just one of my macros (located in Module 1) and renamed it Module1.FBPlus in some of my files. It was just FBPlus. It did not make the change in some of the files. When I try to run the macro in the files it didn't change, it won't work with the short cut (CTRL, SHFT F). If I go into macros, select that one and run it, it works, but will not work with the short cut. I have many other macros in the same module and they all work with the short cut. I don't know what the issue is or how to fix it in the files it doesn't work in.

I have to say, I was doing a great deal of VBA many years back when I designed the sheets the macros go in. Not so much anymore. If you need the code, I can send it, but it doesn't seem to be an issue with the code so much as the short cut.

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
Search the VBA project for another macro with the same name.

Well, it was as simple as changing the short cut to CTRL SHFT E instead of F. There must be some other overall Excel macro using F, but it's not in my cost sheets. Very strange.
