Hi Nick,

Sorry, I really dunno anything about VBA so I don't understand what is wrong
with the code and the array. This code is given to me by somebody last year
when I posted some help on VBA code on Looping the Import function. I will
very much appreciate if you can help in my code. Thanks a lot.

Martin,
Yes, because you forgetting that you have an array, so you need to access
the elements individually. e.g.
myFileName(i)

All the above cannot. Now it is highlighted yellow at the following code
area:

With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add( _
Connection:="TEXT;" & myFileName, _
Destination:=Range("A1"))

My code is:
Sub Import()

Dim myFileName As Variant

myFileName = Application.GetOpenFilename("Text Files
(*.txt),*.txt",
0, 0, 0, True)
If myFileName = False Then Exit Sub

Dim i As Long
For i = LBound(myFileName) To UBound(myFileName)
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add( _
Connection:="TEXT;" & myFileName, _
Destination:=Range("A1"))


.Name = "smartscope"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.TextFilePromptOnRefresh = False
.TextFilePlatform = 437
.TextFileStartRow = 1
.TextFileParseType = xlDelimited
.TextFileTextQualifier = xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote
.TextFileConsecutiveDelimiter = False
.TextFileTabDelimiter = True
.TextFileSemicolonDelimiter = False
.TextFileCommaDelimiter = False
.TextFileSpaceDelimiter = False
.TextFileColumnDataTypes = Array(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)
.TextFileTrailingMinusNumbers = True
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
Next
End Sub
