Hi, Usually, I'm only able to record some macros and manipulate them a little to get what I want. However, this time I need to manipulate one so that it will allow me to choose any text file any where on my PC and import it into my worksheet. Right now, the way my macro is set up it will choose only the one that I recorded and bring it in and set up my fixed width columns. Here's a sample of what I mean below:
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _ "TEXT;C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\ERICSTEXTFILE.txt", Destination:=Range("A1")) .Name = "ERICSTEXTFILE" .FieldNames = True .RowNumbers = False .FillAdjacentFormulas = False .PreserveFormatting = True .RefreshOnFileOpen = False .RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells .SavePassword = False .SaveData = True .AdjustColumnWidth = True .RefreshPeriod = 0 .TextFilePromptOnRefresh = False .TextFilePlatform = 437 .TextFileStartRow = 1 .TextFileParseType = xlFixedWidth .TextFileTextQualifier = xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote .TextFileConsecutiveDelimiter = False .TextFileTabDelimiter = True .TextFileSemicolonDelimiter = False .TextFileCommaDelimiter = False .TextFileSpaceDelimiter = False .TextFileColumnDataTypes = Array(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1) .TextFileFixedColumnWidths = Array(20, 88, 60, 6, 2, 60, 30, 12, 1, 20, 4, 9, 6, 12, 10, _ 10, 12) .TextFileTrailingMinusNumbers = True .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False End With End Sub Any help would be greatly appreciated.
