Default Ideas Welcome for finding values in external Workbook


Hi, i have a workbook that is dependent on values sent to me by
external source. I would like to set up a procedure that would open u
this received book, search for the correct value and then return it t
my worksheet, then return the values to my original spreadsheet, befor
finding the next value to look for!

Can anyone point me in the correct direction? At present my ide
consists of this

find my first value to look for, save it as var1
start loop

open up external spreadsheet,
use find to locate var1,
look at the rows directly beneath var1, create a dynamic range and cop
this,
make original sheet active and paste in relevant cell,
select var 1, drop down to cell directly beneath it, declare as ne
var1
loop until var1 = ""

Is this a suitable path to take? The format of the received SS is no
very user friendly or in the most logical of orders.

If anyone else has created a procedure like this then feel free t
suggest other methods
