Default copying from one file paste in another


Here is a slightly modified version of your code which should take care
of the error you were getting (see comments for changes made).


Code:
--------------------
Sub CombineFiles()

Range("A1").Select

MyBook = ActiveWorkbook.Name
MyTargetCell = ActiveCell.Address
MySource = Application.GetOpenFilename

Workbooks.Open Filename:=MySource

Range("A1").Select
Set myRange = Range(Selection, ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell)) '<-Solution : Take out the select here because you are setting the myRange with this line

myRange.Copy
Application.DisplayAlerts = False '<-- This will save you from having Excel notify you that you placed a large amount of info on the clipboard before closing the source file
ActiveWorkbook.Close
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Workbooks(MyBook).Activate
Range(MyTargetCell).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
ActiveWorkbook.Save 'SaveAs MySource <-- this is saving the Activeworkbook as the Source workbook (I don't think that is what you want to do?)
End Sub
--------------------
