Excel VBA Open a Folder
If you want to open a windows file explorer, you should call explorer.exe
Call Shell("explorer.exe" & " " & "P:\Engineering", vbNormalFocus)Equivalent syxntax
Shell "explorer.exe" & " " & "P:\Engineering", vbNormalFocus
I use this to open a workbook and then copy that workbook's data to the template.
Private Sub CommandButton24_Click()Set Template = ActiveWorkbook With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogOpen) .InitialFileName = "I:\Group - Finance" ' Yu can select any folder you want .Filters.Clear .Title = "Your Title" If Not .Show Then MsgBox "No file selected.": Exit Sub End If Workbooks.OpenText .SelectedItems(1)'The below is to copy the file into a new sheet in the workbook and paste those values in sheet 1
Set myfile = ActiveWorkbook ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(1).Copy after:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1) myfile.Close Template.Activate ActiveSheet.Cells.Select Selection.Copy Sheets("Sheet1").Select Cells.Select ActiveSheet.PasteEnd With
