Importing named range from another workbook
Is it possible to import a named range from another workbook like
you would import a text file ? In Workbook1.xlsb there is a named range called DATA that references A1:C10. I'm trying to import the data from that named range into Workbook2.xlsb and keep that connection linked. Any ideas ? - Ronald K. |

Importing named range from another workbook
Garry,
Thanks for the quick response. I tried that, but it doesn't bring in the whole named range - just the first cell. If you can import a text file, why not a named range in an Excel worksheet ? When you import a text file, you get all the rows and columns from the text file and can also fill down adjacent formulas in the destination workbook. Just haven't figured out how to import data from an Excel workbook. - Ronald K. |

Importing named range from another workbook
In 2003
DataImport External DataImport Data Files Of TypeExcel Files. Drill down to the folder containing your workbook with the named range and click OK You will be presented with "Select Table" Find your named range and OK I believe quite similar in 2007 but not tested.

It happens that Gord Dibben formulated :

Drill down to the folder containing your workbook with the named range and click OK You will be presented with "Select Table" Find your named range and OK Thanks, Gord! Didn't know this because I've never 'Imported External Data' from anything other than a database. For anything else I always use ADO. -Didn't think that's the solution the OP wanted. -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc |
