I'm trying to use the following script to copy a variable named range
in an unopened workbook into the active workbook that the code is running in. I have a couple of problems. I got a good part of the script from the MS KB article herehttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/257819) I have two problems with the below code: I get a "Run time error 424; Object required" error for the line "Set Proj_Conn = CurrentProject.Connection" while I can reference the named range in the 2nd file, I can't seem to get it to copy the range into the active sheet. Any ideas would be greately appreciated Code follows: Sub copy_3() 'Declare variables Dim strQuery As String Dim Proj_Conn As ADODB.Connection Set Proj_Conn = CurrentProject.Connection Dim userInput As String Dim rst As New ADODB.Recordset rst.ActiveConnection = Proj_Conn ' Set variable "file_name" to data source file name ' file_name = "Excel ('Excel (*.xls*), *.xls*')" ' ' Prompt user for file name and path for data source ' fileToOpen = Application.GetOpenFilename(file_name) ' ' Get Variable "Current_Month" for use in selecting active sheet in opened file ' userInput = Application.InputBox(prompt:="Enter Month", Type:=2) 'current_month = Application.InputBox(prompt:="Enter Month", Type:=2) current_month = userInput With Proj_Conn ..Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" ..ConnectionString = "Data Source='" & fileToOpen & " '; Extended Properties=HTML Import;" ..Open End With 'copy named range into clipboard strQuery = "SELECT * FROM '" & current_month & "';" ' select active workbook and reference worksheet Windows("PM Schedule 2009.xlsm").Activate Sheets("reference").Select Range("a1").Activate Range("a1").CopyFromRecordset rst Range("a1").Select ' close connection rst.Close conn.Close End Sub |
