The snippet of code below is giving me fits.
I have a couple of input boxes putting in the variable name and the Stub1 is the path and the name of the file.

It is throwing an error when I point to the network.
"Run-time error '1004':
Method 'OpenText' of Object 'Workbooks' failed.

I cannot find anything that talks about this error in Excel 365
Code:
workbooks.OpenText Filename:=Stub1, Origin:=65001, StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlDelimited, _
        Comma:=True, FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 2), Array(2, 1), Array(3, 1), Array(4, 1), _
        Array(5, 1), Array(6, 1), Array(7, 1), Array(8, 1), Array(9, 1), Array(10, 1), _
        Array(11, 1), Array(12, 1), Array(13, 1), Array(14, 1), Array(15, 1)), TrailingMinusNumbers:=True

What's going on?

Help, please!

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Thanks for the suggestion.

Same result, though.

It works now!
The server addresswas throwng an error that stalled at this step since it could not resolve itself.

Sorry I didn't come back on...to be honest, I had never seen Workbook.OpenText and when you said that .Open didn't work either, I didn't really have anything useful to add. I'm glad you got it working though :)
