I'm automating a workbook for some clients, and the process begins with a
data download from their local Multiple Listing Service (MLS). The code that works is below. What I've been trying to do is find a means for replacing the hard coded file/path -- C:\CMA\CMAData.csv -- with a variable passed from an input box. Building the string is easy, but Excel doesn't accept the string on execution of the code. The error message is : Run Time Error: 1004 Application-Defined or object- defined error. My suspicion is that this can't be done by passing avariable into "QueryTables.Add." My goal is to allow users to specify the path and file name on the fly rather than forcing them into a fixed path and file. Any ideas would be appreciated, and I thank you in advance for reading this. Sub ImportCMAData() Sheets("Data").Select With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;C:\C MA\CMAData.csv", _ Destination:=Range("A1")) .Name = "CMAData_1" .FieldNames = True .RowNumbers = False .FillAdjacentFormulas = False .PreserveFormatting = True .RefreshOnFileOpen = False .RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells .SavePassword = False .SaveData = True .AdjustColumnWidth = True .RefreshPeriod = 0 .TextFilePromptOnRefresh = False '.TextFilePlatform = 437 .TextFileStartRow = 1 .TextFileParseType = xlDelimited .TextFileTextQualifier = xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote .TextFileConsecutiveDelimiter = False .TextFileTabDelimiter = False .TextFileSemicolonDelimiter = False .TextFileCommaDelimiter = True .TextFileSpaceDelimiter = False .TextFileColumnDataTypes = Array(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1) .TextFileTrailingMinusNumbers = True .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False End With End Sub |
