I'm having some strange issues getting my code to work.
I'm trying to use a double click event on my list box SOPList
to open the selected word document. It runs fine the first time you double click a document in the list but the next time you double click the document it gives the error: "The remote server machine does not exist or is unavailable". The error is on line Documents.Open FileToOpen
to open the document.
While the location is a network drive it is still visible and connected. I'm not sure what I'm missing and I'm hoping a second set of eyes can help me figure it out.
Code:
Private Sub SOPList_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
Dim FilePath As String
Dim FileName As String
Dim FileToOpen As String
Dim objWord As Word.Application
Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
If SOPList.ListIndex > -1 Then
FilePath = "\\page\data\NFInventory\groups\CID\SOPs\"
FileName = Me.SOPList.Value
FileToOpen = FilePath & FileName
Documents.Open FileToOpen '<---error line
End If
objWord.Visible = True
Set objWord = Nothing
End Sub
Thank you!!

Try changing
Documents.Open FileToOpen
to
objWord.Documents.Open FileToOpen
