I am writing a macro in Excel and I am trying to save a .txt file to a share drive. I have tried both sets of code below and I get ‘Run-time error ’76’: Path Not Found”. Is this the correct syntax for file path?

FilePath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\\server.name\$foldername"
sOutPutFile = "filename.txt"

FilePath = "\\server.name\$foldername"
sOutPutFile = "filename.txt"

I get the error on the following line:

Open FilePath & sOutPutFile For Output As #nFileNum

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

    It looks like you need a “\” between FilePath and sOutPutFile:

    Open FilePath & Application.PathSeparator & sOutPutFile For Output As #nFileNum
