Need help importing a text file
 

Hello everyone,

I am new to this forum as well as VBA. I am doing pretty well with m
macros but I am having two major problem that I can't find an answe
to. At work I have to create a lot of sales reports in excel, wit
imported data from our proprietary system. I import them as tex
files. I have been able to import a text file only if I program in th
name of the text file. The name of the text file is always different.
I want to be able to choose the name of the text file. Is thi
possible with VBA?

Thank you,
Danie

You'd want to do something like this:

Dim FName As Variant
FName = Application.GetOpenFilename("CSV File (*.csv), *.csv")
If FName < False Then
''open code goe here
End If
