Why am I getting a syntax error? Calling from a userform button. Thanks

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim modname As String
Dim twb As String
strfiletoopen = Application.GetOpenFilename _
(Title:="Please choose a file to open", _
FileFilter:="Excel Files *.xls* (*.xls*),")
'CopyModule(strFiletoopen, "Module1", ThisWorkbook)
modname = "test1"
twb = "test2"
[COLOR=#ff0000]testit (strfiletoopen,modname,twb)[/COLOR]
End Sub
Code:
Function testit(sourcewb As String, modname As String, targetwb As String)
MsgBox sourcewb & "--" & modname & "--" & targetwb
End Function

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
Remove the brackets or use Call.
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim modname As String
Dim twb As String
Dim strfiletoopen As String

    strfiletoopen = Application.GetOpenFilename _
                    (Title:="Please choose a file to open", _
                     FileFilter:="Excel Files *.xls* (*.xls*),")
    'CopyModule(strFiletoopen, "Module1", ThisWorkbook)
    modname = "test1"
    twb = "test2"
    testit strfiletoopen, modname, twb
End Sub
