    Copy worksheet from outside workbook using path located in cell

    Hello,

    I have some code here that isn't working and I'm not sure why... I'm trying to copy a worksheet from an outside workbook (the path and filename are located in B2 and B3 of the "Info" tab. I keep getting an "Compile error: Expected: end of statement" message when it gets to the ":=" in the Set CopyFromWbk line.

    Does Range("B3") have a file extension?

    Yep. It's .xlsx and it's located in the cell with the rest of the filename.

    Are you intending to add a workbook? Or does it already exist and your trying to open it?

    Both workbooks already exist. There is the CopyTo workbook (the one with the macro) and the CopyFrom workbook (the one that the macro opens up to take a spreadsheet from).
