After 2nd macro I get error:  XLSX input (12) Record #1: Tool #1: 'Please complete' does not match a sheet or named range in C:\Users\XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX or the Excel file is corrupt.

 

 

Do you have know an answer, how to solve this problem ?

 

Thanks

Hi @Wojtek_Dz,

 

I don't think there's any need to have the extra characters around the sheet name field,

 

Replace([FileName], "<List of Sheet Names>", [Sheet Names])

 

Kind regards,

Jonathan

I am trying to do something similar and have been searching high and low for the solution. Could you please share how your macros are set up?
