I'm new to writting VBA code and what I've done so far works great except that when I change the name of the workbook and run the process, then a debug message occurs because the original name in the code didn't change when the workbook name changed. Is there a way to link the original workbook name, referenced in the code, to change when the workbook's name is changed? I really would appreciate some help on this.

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
What code is giving the error?

I would just remove the reference to the name of the workbook. Is there a reason that you have to use it?

Hello and welcome to MrExcel.

Why not use ThisWorkbook to refer to the workbook that the code resides in.
