Default Reading from a closed file.


Upon opening my spreadsheet the user is greeted with a userform...

They type in a folder name in a txtbox (txtprojno)

then select 1 of 4 options from a combobox (combobox1)

Upon clicking ok, i would like it to use the txtbox entry and combo box
selection as part of the search path....

ie: if they type jim in txtprojno, then the search path will be...

p:/blabla/JIM/filename.FILE

Moving on furthur, they selection from the combobox will also become
part of the search path...

p:/blabla/JIM/Option1/filename.FILE


Now excel knows where to find the file, how can i open it copy a
certain range into my spreadsheet, Without actually having to open the
file?

Many thanks.

Antonio King
