Referencing Closed workbooks...Help!
 

Hi all...

I have a macro to archive some daily sales. What i want to do for th
procedure below is send the info to a closed workbook rather than th
active one. The reason for this is just to keep the active workboo
faster.

So if i wanted say, to append to Workbook "Archive", "Sheet1" which i
held in a folder called "Folder" in the C drive, how would i write th
reference?

Answers on a postcard.....

Thanks for help inadvance,

Chris
