I open a workbook with vba, I then wish to copy data from the sheet to the
host workbook. This works fine until I attempt to select a range in the
opened sheet:

Workbooks.Open FileName:=FileName


Windows(FileName).Activate
Range("B7:E18").Select

The range select causes an error 400. Is this because the I am not opening
the file with read write permissions?
Anyone help with this.
Thanks
 
Found the answer.
I was not specifying the sheet. instead of

Range("B7:E18").Select
I should have put:

ActiveSheet.Range("B7:E18").Select
