asking for a file
Hi, I wondered if there would be a command so that it asks the user to chose
what file to open. I've made a program that updates the info in the second sheet when you press the button in the first sheet. But I'd need to keep the result of the previous month in the second sheet before updating. So right now, the user has to copy the information. Is there a way that the programs open a "open" box where he selects the excel file and that it copies it in the 2nd sheet? (And if you have even better ideas, you may submit it ;-) ) Thank you. Marie |

I found a file by Jim Rech called BrowseForFolder.zip. This gives you all
the code to help create a pop-up dialog that allows the user to browse to a specific file. I've only had the opportunity to incorporate it into a couple of modules, but it seems to work find.

asking for a file
Could someone tell me whats wrong with the code below?
Sub Parcourir() FichierAOuvrir = Application.GetOpenFilename If FichierAOuvrir < Faux Then TextBox1.Text = FichierAOuvrir End If End Sub I want to have a textbox where the file name with it's whole path appears. I wrote this in a blank sheet as a test. Btq, TextBox1 exists and FichierAOuvrir is declared as string. But is shows mistakes. At first my 3rd line was "If FichierAOuvrir < False Then" ans it kept bugging, so I put "faux" ans it works... Frustrating to program with a french VB... what a weird Idea to put french words like this... anyway. Now, I know that FichierAOuvrir = "Path is written here" But it doesn't like the "TextBo1.Text = FichierAOuvrir". Could you tell me whats wrong? Thnak you for your help.

Tom,
I double checked before I posted my response and there is an option that allows you to browse to a specific file. -- Michael J.

Marie,
Sorry, forgot about your second question.... Anyway, I was unable to find a more elegant solution than this for copying one worksheet to another (in Excel 97 anyway, which is what I am still using) since you can't do a straight assignment of worksheets like: worksheets("sheet2") = worksheets("sheet1") or assignment of ranges like: Worksheets("sheet2").Range("A1:B5") = _ Worksheets("sheet1").Range("A1:B5") Therefore, a copy and paste method is needed. ---------------------------------------------------------- Dim lastrow As Integer Dim lastcol As Integer lastrow = Worksheets("sheet1").UsedRange.Row + _ Worksheets("sheet1").UsedRange.Rows.Count - 1 lastcol = Worksheets("sheet1").UsedRange.Column + _ Worksheets("sheet1").UsedRange.Columns.Count - 1 Worksheets("sheet1").Range("A1", _ Worksheets("sheet1").Cells(lastrow, lastcol)).Copy Worksheets("sheet2").Range("A1").PasteSpecial ---------------------------------------------------------- I hope that this answers your question.

Sorry Tom, but it doesn't work.
Here is what I wrote. I have a UserForm with a textbox and 2 buttons, one that runs parcourir and the other that runs ouvrir. Also, I'm not sure to understand every line, but It seems like you copy the sheet in the workbook I open. (No?) Anyway, only to be sure, I want the sheet I open to be copied in the workbook were I run the macro. I put in comments what I thought I understood... Thank you for your help, we're almost there. Marie ---- Dim FichierAOuvrir As String Sub Ouvrir() Set sh = ActiveSheet 'So sh would be the sheet were I run the macro?

What is the code in the brackets? wkbk.Close Savechanges:=False 'when it closes the workbook, is it the previous sheet (in previous workbook) that is active?
