Hi. I'm trying to get the code below to run when the workbook is
opened. It runs just fine when I step through the code, but when I put the code into the workbook to run when it's opened, it messes up. This macro is supposed to open another workbook on our network (QueryBuster 5.21.15b.xlsm), and then do a couple processes to update the local workbook (QB Launcher), and then close the network workbook. It does open the network workbook just fine, but it's supposed to copy column H from the local workbook and insert it into the network workbook. But it's just copying the column from the local workbook and inserting it into itself. The macro is also supposed to then copy cells from the network workbook and paste them into the local workbook, and then close the network workbook. But it's closing the local workbook instead. Why would this macro run just fine when stepped through or as a stand alone macro, but then mess up when put inside the Workbook Open routine? Thanks for any advice. Sub UpdateQB() ' ' UpdateQB Macro ' Dim LastRow As Long ' Turn display alerts off temporarily Application.DisplayAlerts = False ' Unfilter data in Personal QB file and rename sheet to QueryBuster1. Sheet will ' be deleted later after updated QB data is imported. Sheets("QueryBuster").Select On Error Resume Next ActiveSheet.ShowAllData ' Open main QB, copy ProView column from local QB file to main QB file. This will leave the sheet macro alone. Workbooks.Open Filename:= _ "QueryBuster 5.21.15b.xlsm" _ , UpdateLinks:=0 Windows("QB Launcher.xlsm").Activate Sheets("QueryBuster").Select Columns("H:H").Copy Windows("QueryBuster 5.21.15b.xlsm").Activate Columns("H:H").Insert Shift:=xlToRight ' Finds the last row and copies the formula in column H down from row 2 to the last row LastRow = Range("H" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row Range("H2:H" & LastRow).Formula = "=I2" Range("A1").Select ' Copies all cells from main QB to local QB Cells.Copy Windows("QB Launcher.xlsm").Activate Cells.Select ActiveSheet.Paste ' Close main QB Windows("QueryBuster 5.21.15b.xlsm").Activate Sheets("QueryBuster").Select ActiveWindow.Close ' Turn display alerts back on Application.DisplayAlerts = True End Sub |
