Hi all,
I'm currently working on my first excel application and i'm kinda stuc
at the moment. I have a form wich will get imput from the user feedin
it manufactured products and it will spit out the parts used fo
billing. I have an excel sheet setup for this purpose wich includes
template so to speak that wil do the actual conversion. This templat
will be saved to a new file by date. BUT there can be many suc
conversions in 1 day so i need to be able to insert the column with t
data for that bill included in an already saved file. I have a scrip
setup for this purpose wich wil open the file if it exists and insert
a new column where i want it to. My problem at the moment is that
can't figure out how to paste the needed column from the file create
with the macro to the file opened if the filename exists. Below is som
heavily commented code wich should be self explanatory.
I hope that someone can help me because i'm getting a bit crazy fro
this problem

Sincerely,

GJB

Application.EnableEvents = False

'\\the template wich is already filled out is copied to a new workbook

This might need a little tweak but should put on the right path:
< your code
ActiveCell.EntireColumn.Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight
*'need code to paste sh1.range("c1:c120") into inserted column here*

'=========== my code

COL = ActiveCell.Column
Cells(1, COL).Select
Filename = "File Name to open??"
ThisSheet = ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Name
Set BaseBook = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Name
Set SourceBook = Workbooks.Open(Filename)
SourceTab = SourceBook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Index
Set SourceRange =
SourceBook.Worksheets("Sheets1").Range("C1:C120")
SourceRcount = SourceRange.Rows.Count
Set DestRange = BaseBook.Worksheets(ThisSheet).Cells(1, COL)

SourceRange.Copy DestRange
SourceBook.Close False

Hope this helps

Glen

Thanks Glen this works like a charm, but now i've run into anothe
problem wich wich you could maybe help me. Within the folowing piece o
code i'd like to save the formula's for column D, is this possible?

Windows(varThiswb).Activate
Set sh = Blad6
sh.Cells.Copy
Windows(varNewwb).Activate
Set sh1 = Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count) )
ActiveSheet.Name = "dagoverzicht" & j
sh1.Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues
sh1.Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlFormats
sh1.Range("c1:c120").Copy
Names.Add Name:="totaal", RefersTo:=Range("D1:D120")
