Try this:

Public Sub Importflu()
Dim myfile As String
Dim wsSource as Worksheet, wsDestination as Worksheet

Set wsDestination = ActiveSheet
myfile = Application.GetOpenFilename _
(filefilter:="CSV Files(*.csv),*.csv,All Files (*.*),*.*")

'open workbook, and get handle on first worksheet
Set wsSource = Wokbooks.Open(myfile).Sheets(1)

'''copy data
'copy single cell value only
wsDestination.Range("A1").Formula =_
wsSource.Range("A1").Formula
'...or copy a chunk, including formats
wsSource.Range("A1:G10").Copy_
Destination:wsDestination.Range("A1")

'close workbook
wsSource.Parent.Close(False)
End Sub

give this a try and get back with any problems,
Cheers.

Hi,

I have the following which allows the user to browse and
gives me the
filename

Public Sub Importflu()
Dim myfile As Variant


myfile = Application.GetOpenFilename _
(filefilter:="CSV Files(*.csv),*.csv,All Files (*.*),*.*")


End Sub

What i want is it to then take the data from this file
and copy it into
the active workbook - i used the recorder to import
specific data but
couldn't marry up my 'myfile' path with the connection:=
bit.

So the user should just select the appropiate file and it
copies out
the data and sticks it in the new workbook - then i can
do the other
sorting macros etc in that workbook.

Any help much appreciated it seems like it should be
simple but i've
been trying all mornniing!

Cheers
