Hi there I am trying to import a text file from a folder based on FileDialog
from a set path? I have a code that imports a text file but it only opens up a generic C:\\
path, How should I modify the code below in order to open a folder for a specified path?
Sub ImportTextFile()
Dim fName As String, LastRow As Long
fName = Application.GetOpenFilename("Text Files (*.txt), *.txt")
If fName = "False" Then Exit Sub
LastRow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;" & fName, _
Destination:=Range("A" & LastRow))
.Name = "sample"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.TextFilePromptOnRefresh = False
.TextFilePlatform = 437
.TextFileStartRow = 1
.TextFileParseType = xlDelimited
.TextFileTextQualifier = xlTextQualifierNone
.TextFileConsecutiveDelimiter = True
.TextFileTabDelimiter = False
.TextFileSemicolonDelimiter = False
.TextFileCommaDelimiter = True
.TextFileSpaceDelimiter = False
.TextFileOtherDelimiter = "" & Chr(10) & ""
.TextFileColumnDataTypes = Array(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, _
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, _
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, _
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)
.TextFileTrailingMinusNumbers = True
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
End Sub
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I did the following alteration to the beginning of the code, but now I get "1004 Application Defined Error"
Sub ImportTextFile()
Dim fName As FileDialog, LastRow As Long
Set fName = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogOpen)
fName.InitialFileName = "\\olscmesf003\gcm_emea\TCU_REPORTS\APPS\Reports\Regional\Pointsec for PC Web RH\2017\"
If fName = "False" Then Exit Sub
