Hello all,

I've been searching the web and posts for almost 4 weeks and can't
seem to find what I need. Please forgive me I'm new to programming
with VBA/VBS.

Basically I have file #1 <file1.csv> which contains a result set
created by another application. What I'd like to do is use a script
to copy the values from sheet1 (or the whole sheet would be fine) into
file #2 <file2.xls> so users can run formulas, vlookups, etc. without
having to access a separate file (and leave the original data
untouched).

Is there an efficient way to do this with vba or vbs? It seems easy
enough but I can't put my finger on it.

Thanks,
-ab

Hi Anthony

Here's a very basic version of what you're looking to do.
With File2.xls open, tt opens the CSV file and copies the data sheet to the
end of the XLS file.

'Change file names and directory name accordingly
Sub CopyCSVdata()
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"C:\File1.csv"
Sheets("File1sheet").Copy After:=Workbooks("File2").Sheets.Count
End Sub
