Unable to open file for write error on output tool within Batch Macro

DanielG

Hi,

 

So I have a batch macro that is supposed to fill a bunch of named ranges inside an Excel template file.  Let's say the template is located on my LAN at folder X.  

 

When I run the macro, I get "unable to open file for write" but instead of displaying the correct folder path it is showing my macro folder location instead which is lets say Folder Y.  

I can not for the life of me figure out why it is trying to output there, as I am overwriting the ENTIRE FILE PATH with the file path I pass into it from the Macro Input.

 

Any thoughts on why that would occur?  It is driving me nuts.

 

Thanks
