Hi.. recorded a macro and now working to get bugs out. I have a workbook that opens with sequential numbers on the end of the name and want to use a wildcard in place of that number..

AS IS
Windows("Warehouse Pick Priority (3).xlsx").Activate

NOT WORKING
Windows("Warehouse Pick Priority (*).xlsx").Activate


Seems like I should be able to use a wildcard to activate my other workbook.. Skipped over this issue and the forum has been very helpful but having problems with this one issue.

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
