The following is code I am using to re-populate a spreadsheet with updated
data. I tested it extensively in the Editor and it runs fine, but when I try
to run the macro, it stops at the same exact spot every time and I don't know
why. Can someone please help me? The line (flagged below) is as follows:

Range("C1").Select '<<<PROGRAM STOPS AT THIS LINE

I must be missing something obvious about the statement that halts the
macro, but why doesn't it stop it from working when I'm manually stepping
through the program in the Visual Basic Editor?

Whoops!

What I meant to write was, is there an error? Or does the IDE window pop up
higlighting the line of code in yellow? If the latter, try Ctrl+Shift+F9 to
clear all breakpoints; failing that copy all the code to a new module and
try to run it again (removing the old module)

If there is an error post the number and message recieved...

Oli,

No, no, and no. That's the part that has me totally stumped. All the
breakpoints are cleared. The IDE window does not pop-up whether its already
open or not. No lines are highlighted if its already open. No error message
appears. The code just jumps to the Timekeepers.csv and stops(?) executing.

Per your suggestion I deleted the original module and pasted the code into a
new one, but that did not help. I've tried adding Wait times into the code,
I've tried three different ways of selecting the desired cell and inserting
the formula, but it always stops at the point that the new document opens.

Could it be because its a CSV file instead of an Excel file? I don't
know...
