Importing Text File
 

Hi Guys,

has anyone got a macro where I can import a text file saved on my
computer into a new sheet named yesterdays or todays date in format
"ddmmyy" and then the sheet gets hidden.

Thanks in advance for your help

Gunny

Importing Text File
 

Sub ImportData()
ThisWorkbook.Sheets.Add after:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
ActiveSheet.Name = Format(Date, "ddmmyy")
Workbooks.Open FileName:="C:\text.txt", Format:=2
Cells.Copy ThisWorkbook.Sheets(Format(Date, "ddmmyy")).[a1]
Workbooks("text.txt").Close savechganges:=False
Sheets(Format(Date, "ddmmyy")).Visible = False
End Sub

Change "C:\text.txt" to refer to your file. I've assumed that the file
is comma-delimited. If it's not, change the "Format:=2" to whatever you
need it to be (check Help for the Open method for the options).

Hi Gunny,

use macro recorder. In case you will need to modify the recorded code,
post it in the forum.

Regards,
Ivan
