We have multiple workbooks on a network (one per user). When each is opened,
a second (source) XLS file on the same network drive is opened, and a few values are compared to see if the information in the source file is newer than in the individual file. If so, the newer information is copied into the individual file. The following code works for the comparison, but the source file is not closing as expected. I'm trying to figure out if there is something wrong with my syntax related to closing the sourceWB, or possibly something else (for example, if the worksheet in the individual workbook is protected can the paste fail without an error? If so, I'll have to check and potentially unprotect those sheets in code) Thanks for any insights!
