Excel VBA

Hi guys,

I am having a problem with the below code. What I'm trying to do is copy sheets from one workbook - filter by current month and copy onto another (already opened workbook). My macro falls over when it goes to Set y = ActiveWorkbook.Open

Are you able to advise? All I want to do is switch to the following workbook "L:\ClientInterest\BAD-STATIC DATA\Static Data CHECKS\Serena\MASTER_NA.xlsx") - without the need to reopen it again?


Sub CopySheets()

Dim i As Workbook

Set i = Workbooks.Open("L:\ClientInterest\BAD-STATIC DATA\NA-rates\BAD-NA Interest set-up_ 22_07_2015.xlsm")

Sheets(Array("LBARATEF", "LBAPARIF", "LBAMKTCF")).Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs ("L:\ClientInterest\BAD-STATIC DATA\Static Data CHECKS\Serena\MASTER_NA.xlsx")
Sheets("LBARATEF").Select

i.Close

Sheets("LBARATEF").Range("A1:D300000").AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:=xlFilterThisMonth, Operator:=xlFilterDynamic
Cells.Select
Selection.Copy
Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets("LBAPARIF")).Name = ("LBARATEF2")
Sheets("LBARATEF2").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Sheets("LBARATEF").Delete

Dim x As Workbook
Dim y As Workbook

Set x = Workbooks.Open("L:\ClientInterest\BAD-STATIC DATA\Static Data CHECKS\52 CCY + Market for Static Data Checks.xlsx")
Set y = ActiveWorkbook.Open

x.Sheets("CODINGS").Range("A1:B739").Copy
y.Sheets("LBAMKTCF").Range("C312:D470").PasteSpecial
y.Sheets("LBARATEF2").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1).PasteSpecial

x.Close

Best regards

Freddie

RE: Excel VBA

Hi Freddie,

Thank you for the forum question.

Set y = ActiveWorkbook.Open

This line is not working because you cannot open the active workbook. If you want to jump between open workbooks you need to refer to their names.


Set y=Workbooks("MASTER_NA.xlsx")
y.Sheets("LBAMKTCF").Range("C312:D470").PasteSpecial
y.Sheets("LBARATEF2").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1).PasteSpecial



Kind regards

Excel tip:

Pivot table grouping

If you want to group items in a pivot table together, simply highlight the labels for the fields either with the shift key (if adjacent)or with the contral key if they are not next to each other.
Right click and choose group. Give the cell a name.

When you double click on this cell it will either expamd or collapse your grouped area
