    Import a Zip file into an excel sheet

    Hi

    I cant work out how to import the contents of a Zip file into an excel sheet, I can do it if I save the data that is contained in the zip file of as a csv but it is easier for me to pull the data with in the Zip file and would save a lot of time if I could just import from the Zip.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    You need to extract the files before you can open/import them through VBA. The extraction, opening and importing can all be done within VBA, but there is not direct way to pull info from within an archived file without first extracting it.

    This is how to get the zip saved down.
