Hi @JeffNZ

For the Excel Application Scope, you have to give the actual file path. “*” is actually not going to work here. In case you have file names it a particular folder that change time to time, You may get the file names into an array first. And then loop through them to open the file…

I have attached a sample workflow which I created for you… This will suit the purpose of yours…

DynamicFileName.xaml (7.7 KB)

Let me know how it works for you… If this fulfills your requirement, please mark the answer as the solution so it will help others as well :slight_smile:
