I have a workbook that opens another workbook. Can I control the caption on a label using a separate workbook that is running all my code? Below is my code... but I have an error in the last line.

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()


    Dim Wbk1 As Workbook
    Dim Pth1 As String
    Dim OpeningVar1 As String
    
    Pth1 = Environ("Userprofile") & "\Desktop\HT\"


    OpeningVar1 = "36MN.xlsx"
    
    Set Wbk1 = Workbooks.Open(Pth1 & OpeningVar1)


    If Application.CommandBars("Ribbon").Height <= 150 Then
        CommandBars.ExecuteMso "HideRibbon"
    End If


    Workbook("36MN.xlsx").Label3.Caption = Empl
    
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
Try this

Change Sheet1 by the name of your sheet
Code:
Workbooks("36MN.xlsx").Sheets("[COLOR=#ff0000]Sheet1[/COLOR]").Label3.Caption = Empl
