Solved: problem in opening a specific filename

From the picture we can see a combobox and a button. What I need to do now is that once I select a combobox and hit the button. I should able to retrieve a file by the name that is exactly same as the combobox name. For e.g. when I select “testorder” combobox, I should able to select a file name that has to be by the name of “testorder”.

So If I select a filename that is not same as the combobox name, then there will be a message pop out saying “Not a valid filename”.

I have created all the codes to do this for the combobox. Value = ”testorder” and there is no error in my program, but it is not opening the file.

I have attached a sample workbook with all my codes and a testorder file which I need to open

A filename which has no extension seems to be picked up by GetOpenFilename with a dot at the end.
