I changed the activewindow.caption and in code in another vba project. Now I have saved the name of the current spreadsheet and activate another spreadsheet. Then when I try to go back to my original spreadsheet, I get the error, "Runtime Error 9 Subscript out of range". But the name of the workbook is exactly the same as the name I am trying to activate. Could the caption change have something to do with my error? Thanks. If so, what do I do?
 

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Are you using Workbooks or Windows to activate the workbook? The former should work regardless of the window caption.

I was using
Windows(MyWB).activate

So when I changed to
Workbooks(MyWB).activate

It worked great! Thanks for the tip!
