or if not that, this will copy from specified range from TEMP.XLS to
specified range of ORIG.XLS

Workbooks("TEMP.XLS").Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(" A1").Copy
Workbooks("ORIG.XLS").Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(" A1").PasteSpecial
Paste:=xlPasteAll

Do the Copy on one line, then then PasteSpecial.


Windows("TEMP.XLS").Sheets("Sheet1").Range"B3").Co py
Windows("ORIG.XLS").Sheets("Sheet1").Range"B3").Pa steSpecial (xlPasteAll)

should work.

Is it pooable to paste something into another open workbook without
activating it?

such as :-

Windows("TEMP.XLS").Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B3").P asteSpecial
(xlPasteAll)

instead of :-

Windows("TEMP.XLS").Activate
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B3").PasteSpecial (xlPasteAll)
Windows("ORIG.XLS").Activate
