Excel Vba Help File
I'm writing a vba code which supposed to delete the data on a selected excel sheet, open a dialog box for text file selection, and then import the data from that text file to the same exact sheet I've deleted the data from. So far I can only open the text file into a new workbook but can't open it to the same sheet I've deleted the data from. Here's what I came with so far, will appreciate your help: Dim Filt As String Dim FilterIndex As Integer Dim Title As String Dim FileName As Variant Filt = 'Cst Files (*.prn),*.prn' Title = 'Select a cst File to Import' FileName = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:=Filt, Title:=Title) If FileName = False Then MsgBox 'No File Was Selected' Exit Sub End If With Application.ActiveSheet Cells.Select Selection.QueryTable.Delete Selection.ClearContents End With Workbooks.Open FileName Thanks!

Another awful decision from the Office team. Having no other choice, I tried the online help for Excel VBA and spent five fruitless minutes trying to find the syntax for a simple VBA function.
