I am creating an Excel-based order entry system. What I need to create is a method that will look up the last 4 characters (file ID number) of the last file modified. This will be displayed on the form and will allow the user to know what ID was used last.
First, let me say that I think this could easily be designed in Access, but that my boss does not want that.
Second, I have played around with some code, but have not found anything that can look up other files (can look up file name on the file I am working on).
If anyone has any possible solutions to this question or has ideas about other possibilities for my overarching goal, I would greatly appreciate hearing from them.
Thank you, in advance.
