Hi and thanks for your interest in my post. I'm using in MSExcel 2007 and using code I've found in various forums and published by MVPs, to perform some column copying . Some of the code were macros, and one is an add-in. All fail, but with different faults.
I used a macro from Microsoft 'MergeHorizontally' which crashes Excel when trying to open spreadsheets identified with an array: Set mybook = Workbooks.Open(MyPath & MyFiles(FNum)) I used macros developed by Ron de Bruin, Microsoft MVP - Excel including 'CopyRange' and 'CopyRangeValues'. These halt with run-time error 445 - Object doesn't support this action on the line: With Application.FileSearch In my troubleshooting, I founda a wonderful add-in utility that Ron de Bruin created, 'RDBMerge'. This produces a different automation error (Error 440) Run-time error '-2147417848 (80010108)': Automation error The object invoked has disconnected from its clients. Object doesn't support this action (Error 445) I suspected my Exccel installation, yet I have installed Office 2007 on another computer and get the same results. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. (If it matters, I have perhaps 200 .xlsx workbooks with various names having mostly twenty or so rows (but as many as 1500) in the first 13 columns that I wish to copy-append into one spreadsheet. I desire some functioning code because my VBA skills are many years out of date.)
