Hello All,

The code listed below (thank you JLatham) works to transfer the last row of
data in Workbook1 (Copreco Reading) to workbook2 (Master Log). This works
great, however, I need to be able to specifically place each piece of data
from Workbook 1 to a specific column in Workbook2. I will have to do this
for approximately 90 columns.

Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
