I have code below which open a specific file in a directory. I could have several csv files with BR1 in the name, but want the latest file name containing BR1

I want me code amended so that it attaches the last file name specified in the code

Code:
 If objFSO.GetExtensionName(objMyFile) = "csv" And UCase(Left(objFSO.GetBaseName(objMyFile), 12)) = UCase("Sales BR1") Then


Your assistance in this regard is most appreciated


Code:
 Sub Open_Spec_Files()
    
    Dim objFSO       As Object
    Dim objMyFolder  As Object
    Dim objMyFile    As Object
    Dim wbMyWorkBook As Workbook
    Dim lngLastRow   As Long
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set objMyFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("C:\Sales") 'Directory path (WITHOUT trailing backslash!!) where the relevant files reside. Change to suit.
   
    For Each objMyFile In objMyFolder.Files
        'If the current file's extension is 'csv' and the first 4 characters of the file name is 'EKRT' (not case sensitive) then...
       If objFSO.GetExtensionName(objMyFile) = "csv" And UCase(Left(objFSO.GetBaseName(objMyFile), 12)) = UCase("Sales BR1") Then
            '...set the wbMyWorkBook variable by opening the workbook and copy the data from range A4:O[lngLastRow].
            Set wbMyWorkBook = Workbooks.Open(objMyFolder & "\" & objMyFile.Name)
            'Finds the last row across columns A to O (inclusive) of the first sheet (note a csv file can only have one sheet) in the *.csv file
            On Error Resume Next
                lngLastRow = wbMyWorkBook.Sheets(1).Range("A:O").Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
            On Error GoTo 0
            If lngLastRow >= 4 Then
                With wbMyWorkBook
                    .Sheets(1).Range("A4:O" & lngLastRow).Copy Destination:=ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Range("A2")
                    .Close SaveChanges:=False 'Close the *.csv without saving and changes
                End With
            End If
        End If
    Next objMyFile
   Set objFSO = Nothing
    Set objMyFolder = Nothing
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
