At the risk of sounding like a rookie, which I am in regards to VBA,
where within what I have would this need to be placed in order for it
to proccess the proper file. Also, you stated that I need to have the
full paths as in your example. The files do not always have a suffix
on them. If I write the code before it goes to the shop, then it would
have a .out on the end. If it is a file that the operator saved from
his machine, then it would be blank.

Thanks

John
