    Runtime Error 9

    I'll refer to the post I had posted previously, see post #4.
    http://www.vbaexpress.com/forum/show...bscript+out+of

    I had gotten around the error after tweaking the code a little.

    [VBA]SheetName = Workbooks("MTO").Sheets(SheetNo).Name + ".DAT" [/VBA]

    By throwing ".DAT" (File Extension) out.

    Now I felt my program would do OK but I tested it on yet another machine and the same error 9 would come but the program would execute. What I found is little strange but seems to solve problem for me.

    Just on a hunch since it involved file extensions. I went to
    Windows Explorer >> Folder Options >> View Files >> And checked in
    Hide Extensions for known file types. (See Attached Screenshot)

    And the problem disappeared. I hope this might help someone so posted. Probably, we can have a section (sub-forum) as "LESSONS LEARNED", (I hope nobody minds my over-enthusiastic comment from wrong perspective!).

    Regards,
