You don't need to copy & paste. You can use code along the lines of the
following, where you want to copy the data into Sheet1 of Target.xls

With workbooks("target.xls").worksheets("Sheet1")
.range("A1")=activesheet.range("A1")
.range("B1")=activesheet.range("B1")
etc
End With

automatically using a macro while both are open, there are only 10 cells
involved and i am
already using a macro to call up a worksheet from the first workbook via
button control. Any suggestions or would i have to use copy and paste which
i dont really want to do.
