Hey All,
I’m having some trouble with a macro I’m using to import a text file. Currently, the data is imported starting at the selected cell of the active worksheet. My goal is to import into a different worksheet in the same workbook. I’ve searched the forum in hopes of figuring this out on my own but haven’t had any luck. Here’s what I’m using now:
Public Sub ImportTextFile(FName As String, Sep As String)
Dim RowNdx As Long
Dim ColNdx As Integer
Dim TempVal As Variant
Dim WholeLine As String
Dim Pos As Integer
Dim NextPos As Integer
Dim SaveColNdx As Integer
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'On Error GoTo EndMacro:
SaveColNdx = ActiveCell.Row
RowNdx = ActiveCell.Row
Open FName For Input Access Read As #1
While Not EOF(1)
Line Input #1, WholeLine
If Right(WholeLine, 1) <> Sep Then
WholeLine = WholeLine & Sep
End If
ColNdx = SaveColNdx
Pos = 1
NextPos = InStr(Pos, WholeLine, Sep)
While NextPos >= 1
TempVal = Mid(WholeLine, Pos, NextPos - Pos)
Cells(RowNdx, ColNdx).Value = TempVal
Pos = NextPos + 1
ColNdx = ColNdx + 1
NextPos = InStr(Pos, WholeLine, Sep)
Wend
RowNdx = RowNdx + 1
Wend
EndMacro:
On Error GoTo 0
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Close #1
End Sub
Public Sub DoTheImport()
Dim FName As Variant
Dim Sep As String
FName = Application.GetOpenFilename _
(filefilter:="Text Files(*.txt),*.txt,All Files (*.*),*.*")
If FName = False Then
MsgBox "You didn't select a file"
Exit Sub
End If
Sep = Chr(9)
ImportTextFile CStr(FName), Sep
End Sub
