Open Workbook and Set Reference

What does the following code do?

Assume FilePath & FileName have been set correctly. Set WB_assumptions = Workbooks.Open(FilePath & FileName)

Answer:

The code will open the workbook that is located at the specified file path and file name, and it will set the WB_assumptions object to reference the opened workbook.

In more detail, the line WB_assumptions = Workbooks.Open(FilePath & FileName) uses the Open method from the Workbooks object to open the workbook located at the file path specified by FilePath & FileName. The result of the Open method is assigned to the WB_assumptions object, making WB_assumptions a reference to the opened workbook.

FileName refers to the name of the file that contains the workbook to be opened. It plays a crucial role in identifying the specific workbook to be accessed.
