Ok, I will try anything. But that would not explain why it does work for the
admistrator login and no one else.

It looks like it is messing with the name of the worksheet somehow. If the
structure of the file is not changing, a possible workaround is using the
index of the sheet instead of the name, something like:
Sheets(1).Select
You have to figure out what is the index number of the sheet, it will be
usually the position of the tab, but it may not. In any case, it is not a
very safe practice (backup the file!), but it may do the trick.

Miguel,

Thanks, but the CSV file is opened correctly. In fact when the debug error
message is cancelled, I can see both files in Excel by changing windows. The
CSV file shows the data correctly and the first row is selected waiting to be
copied and pasted into the XLS. The error line shown in the debugger is
"Sheets (myexcelfile.xls) .select" with error 9 'Subscript out of Range'.
Here is the beginning of the macro :

Workbooks.Open Filename:="h:\sme\data\Broadspire.csv" <<< Opens Fine.
Range("A3:H3").Select <<<Selects Fine.
Selection.Copy

Sheets("Quarterly BCO Detail").Select <<<<<Error line

Thanks for looking,
