Default How do I copy data from a closed file.

The easiest way is to open the file and then grab the data:


Sub Macro1()
Workbooks.Open Filename:="N:\remote.xls"
Windows("remote.xls").Activate
Range("A83").Select
Selection.Copy
Windows("Book1").Activate
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub

cell from a different file and paste in my file?

Thanks
