Copy Data From Closed Workbook And Append In Active Workbook?
Feb 6, 2013I have some vba that opens a closed workbook, copies data from a named range and then pastes it to the active workbook.
However, what is happening is that the closed workbook is opened and only part of the data is pasted. What I would prefer to happen is this:

Nov 20, 2006I have a workbook that is a formatted report that I need to insert data from a name variable "CSV" file. I have created a macro in this workbook that calls an "Open" dialog for CSV files that I can use to browse to and open the source file. The macro then is supposed to "select all" copy and close the workbook then make the original workbook active and paste the data starting at row 2. The macro "seems" to be working perfectly except when I do the open the macro then makes the original workbook active, selects all copies then wants to close the original workbook. How can I tell the macro that the csv file that I just opened should be the active workbook, baring in mind that the name won't be known before the time it's opened so I can't hardcode the "active. workbook (NAME) "route.

Name Of Active Workbook From Add-in
Feb 21, 2008I have an add-in (MyAddin.xla) that is called from my open_workbook event in my workbook (MyBook.xls):
Private Sub workbook_open()
AddIns("MyAddin").Installed = False
AddIns("MyAddin").Installed = True
ThisWorkbook.Activate
Run "MyAddIn.xla!WbookOpen"
End Sub
I put this in my WbookOpen procedure:
Sub WbookOpen(pWorkbook As Workbook)
MsgBox "Wbook Open Active workbook is " & ActiveWorkbook. Name
End Sub
The message displayed is:
Wbook Open Active workbook is MyAddin.xla
I thought this would be:
Wbook Open Active workbook is MyBook.xls.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRemoves All Code From The Active Workbook..
May 19, 2009I have this script below that removes all code from the active workbook. The reason I am removing all the code is because I am running code from my personal library and the code changes the worksheet I am working with.So while stepping through I noticed it moves over to the sheet change sub routine from the active workbook that I am working on.
So I tried to remove all the code from the Active workbook but after I remove all the code it returns a expected end of sub error, where the old worksheet change sub was? but no code is in the entire workbook? So I tried to enter something in the blank sheet mod and it returns a (Cant Edit Module) error.
Activating A Workbook That Was Previously Active
Dec 21, 2009An Excel file is e-mailed to my company for all the credit card transactions in a given day. Because we manage many stores and each store is a different legal entity and a different fiscal year ending, I need my macro to sort the information and separate the transaction by store and by fiscal year end. I just hit my first block.
I need to open a workbook off the server to grab information for a vlookup formula. I can get the workbook open, but I can't get back to the original workbook or find a way to reactivate it. Because the macro is going to be saved in the "personal" workbook, I can't use the "thisworkbook.activate" code. Also the workbook name and tab name that is emailed to me will always be different so I can't use other solutions that I've seen posted.
VBA Script Stops When The Workbook Is Not Active.

1. Is there any way to correct these codes?
2. Does the bolded codes applied to ActiveWindow (Worksheet) only (eg. With ActiveWindow ...)? Can I change it to ActiveWorkbook (perhaps)?
3. Can the command menus (File Edit View Insert Format ...) be hidden also?
4. Does looping method for each worksheet
Active Workbook Refreshall Security
Nov 4, 2008I have a function that is called in Access vba code that refreshes all sheets in a given workbook. We use it all the time for workbooks containing any number of tabs to be refreshed. The code has a key line: ActiveWroksheet.Refreshall. I need to now start to secure the pivot so the user can not refresh it. Another post pointed me towards: .PivotCache.EnableRefresh = False.
This apparently can only be used for a particular sheet; ie it can not be applied to ALL sheets in the workbook. The trouble is the function is generically used to refresh any workbook, and the number of sheets may vary.
Any thoughts on how I can disable the ability to refresh a pivot for ALL sheets. I'd prefer not to turn off the pivot wizard since the user should be allowed to manipulate it...just not refresh it.
Save As And Close Active Workbook
May 13, 2009I am trying to create a form button that will save as and close the active workbook. I have the Save As code working but I can't find any code to close the workbook that will work. A couple of issues: I don't have control of what the workbook is called - the user will name it - so I can't do a simple Workbooks (" ").Close. Also, I don't want to quit the application. I don't know if the user will have other worksheets open. I also tried ActiveWorkbook.Close and that didn't seem to work either. Not sure what I am doing wrong.
