Without seeing your actual workbook, I'm only guessing.
What do you mean by the code "not giving desired output"?
I created a workbook with two sheets called "Sheet1" and "Sheet2".
In Sheet1 I put several column headings and made three of them equivalent 
to:Part NumberQtyValue
I noticed that in your description, you said you had columns:"Part No", "Qty", 
"Value"
but in your code, you used:desc = WorksheetFunction.Match("Part Number", 
Rows("1:1"), 0)
If your data actually has "Part No" instead of "Part Number", then this will 
produce an error.
When I created a sample with "Part Number" in the heading,the code worked 
properly.
What is yours doing?

 Does anyone help me to fix the VB code (I'm not a VB guru either)for  an Open 
spreadsheet - Purpose : when looking in a spreadsheet, I to look for a couple 
of column header names, and then copy those columns only (in a predefined 
order) into a clean separate worksheet.


For example,
On Sheet 1 - 
Out of say 30 column headers (with data underneath), look for column headers 
called "Part No", "Qty", "Value" 
Then copy value to Sheet 2 -"Part No", "Qty", "Value". 

Below codes (copied from web) are not giving desired output and i don't have 
clue to fix the error.

Sub Getvalues()    Sheets("sheet1").Select    desc = 
WorksheetFunction.Match("Part Number", Rows("1:1"), 0)    QTY = 
WorksheetFunction.Match("Qty", Rows("1:1"), 0)    Value1 = 
WorksheetFunction.Match("Value", Rows("1:1"), 0)             
Sheets("sheet1").Columns(desc).Copy Destination:=Sheets("sheet2").Range("A1")   
 Sheets("sheet1").Columns(QTY).Copy Destination:=Sheets("sheet2").Range("B1")   
 Sheets("sheet1").Columns(Value1).Copy 
Destination:=Sheets("sheet2").Range("C1")    End Sub

Any help and VB examples would be much appreciated.

Best regards
