Thank you. I have already update my infos
what if I will add a search in which if something is type there, that words will be search as folder file names
Maybe this will get you started.
Change directory path in A1. Press button and type keyword in TextBox. Enter or Tab.
Avoid using Select, Selection and Activate in your code. Use With ... End With instead.

The code works but when I try to open the file a run time error occured.
Just click on a name in the ListBox to open the file because I'm not getting any errors.

Please help guys, I'm not familiar on this error and on what to do
Did you try it on a different directory ?

Same error as the first error i have screenshot
OK, but did you try on a different directory because on my part files open without a problem.
Want to exclude the fact that it might have something to do with the filepath.
Show image of folder myDir (Sheet1.Range("A1").Value). This is C:\Users\cfederiz\OneDrive - DPDHL\Desktop\?
Show image of ListBox1 with file names.
I am currently have this code

We know which code you use.
Please answer the questions asked to you.
Have you tried another directory ? Show screenshots of cell A1 with filepath. Show screenshot of ListBox1 with filenames.
We ask all of these questions because you seem to be the only one who has problems with getting the code to work properly.
Here it is.

Also this is the 3rd time I ask you if you have tried another directory. Please do and reply.
Oh I know where my mistake is. just like on all what you are pointing it is on my directory.
I overlooked the Backslash, my mistake. Thank you for all your help.
You're welcome and thanks for rep+.
