How to fix code for Run-time Error 52, Bad file name or number? P: 26 JAGster I don’t know VBA but have been using Access for awhile using tables, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25064160/run-time-error-52-bad-file-name-or-number queries, forms and macros. I am trying to automate importing a number of Excel 2007 spreadsheets into an Access 2007 table. The import will be done each month, but the number of error 52 spreadhseets could be different. The spreadsheets will all be saved to the same folder. I need to import all the spreadsheets in the folder into the same table. I found VBA code in a different post that was written for Excel 2003 and Access 2003. I changed the path, the table name and the spreadsheet type but when I run the code I get Run-time error runtime error 52 52, Bad file name or number. When I debug the code, it highlights the line this line --strFile = Dir(path & "*.xlsx").

This code had been written by someone else no longer with my company, but the VBA script worked when last run. Now, when I attempt to run it, I keep getting run time error 52 ("Bad file name or number"). Any suggestions? The code is much longer, but the error (per the debugger) highlights as such: Print #intFreeFile, _ " *XXXXXXXXX * * * Error in code 'main_ProcessBringFwd' " & Err & ": " & _ Error(Err) vba excel-vba runtime share|improve this question edited Dec 7 '15 at 13:57 Luuklag 1,231928 asked Jul 31 '14 at 16:21 New_to_VBA 111 Show us the code. –Nick Udell Jul 31 '14 at 16:23 The code is much longer, but the error (per the debugger) highlights as such: Print #intFreeFile, " *XXXXXXXXX * * * Error in code 'main_ProcessBringFwd' " & Err & ": " & Error(Err) –New_to_VBA Jul 31 '14 at 16:48 I think we need to see a little bit more of your code... what is the value of intFreeFile at this time the error raises? Is the file already open by another application? Etc. –David Zemens Jul 31 '14 at 16:55 The macro is supposed to work on about 300 excel files, none of which are open or being used at this time. Not sure about the value of intFreeFile - does this refer to the # of the file being worked on? It would appear that no files had been accessed when I tried to run the macro.
