Hi all

I want to have macro code to do that:

Brown to folder to choose excel file, copy sheet(array("source1","source2","source3","source4")
then paste in active workbook with sheetname changed to sheets(array("A","B","C","D").

Thanks in advance./.
 

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
I guess you mean browse to folder with a open browser window and the 4 first sheets of the selected file

Code:
Sub ImportSheets()
 Dim DestWb As Workbook
 Dim SourceWb As Workbook
  Set DestWb = ActiveWorkbook

[COLOR=#008000]'Let user browse for the source file[/COLOR]
 Dim SourceName As Variant
 SourceName = Application.GetOpenFilename

[COLOR=#008000]'Open It[/COLOR]
 Workbooks.Open fileName:=SourceName
 Set SourceWb = ActiveWorkbook

[COLOR=#008000]'Copy Source 1st sheet and Name it "A"[/COLOR]
  SourceWb.Sheets(1).Copy After:=DestWb.Sheets(DestWb.Sheets.Count)
  ActiveSheet.Name = "A"
[COLOR=#008000]'Copy Source 2nd sheet and Name it "B"[/COLOR]
  SourceWb.Sheets(2).Copy After:=DestWb.Sheets(DestWb.Sheets.Count)
  ActiveSheet.Name = "B"
[COLOR=#008000]'Copy Source 3rd sheet and Name it "C"[/COLOR]
  SourceWb.Sheets(3).Copy After:=DestWb.Sheets(DestWb.Sheets.Count)
  ActiveSheet.Name = "C"
[COLOR=#008000]'Copy Source 4th sheet and Name it "D"[/COLOR]
  SourceWb.Sheets(1).Copy After:=DestWb.Sheets(DestWb.Sheets.Count)
  ActiveSheet.Name = "D"

[COLOR=#008000]'Close Source Workbook[/COLOR]
  SourceWb.Close
End Sub

If the sheets are called source1, source 2, ... simply replace
Code:
SourceWb.Sheets(1)
by
Code:
SourceWb.Sheets("source1")

  ActiveSheet.Name = array("A","B","C","D")
[COLOR=#008000]'Close Source Workbook[/COLOR]
  SourceWb.Close
End Sub
I've just change code shorter like above, but this code only copy sheets and paste but don't rename.
Could you have anothe way to fix this code

THe easiest way is to replace
Code:
[COLOR=#333333] ActiveSheet.Name = array("A","B","C","D")[/COLOR]
by one of those macros
Code:
   Sub ArraySh()
   Dim oldSh()
    Dim NewSh()
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim numSh As Long
    NewSh = Array("A", "B", "C", "D")
    oldSh = Array("source1", "source2", "source3", "source4")
    On Error Resume Next
    For numSh = LBound(oldSh) To UBound(oldSh)
        Set ws = Nothing
        Set ws = Sheets(oldSh(numSh))
        If Not ws Is Nothing Then ws.Name = NewSh(numSh)
    Next numSh
End Sub
or
Code:
Sub ArraySh2()
    Dim ArrSh
    Dim uSh
    Dim shName
    shName = Array("A", "B", "C", "D")
    Set ArrSh = Sheets(Array("source1", "source2", "source3", "source4"))
    For uSh = 1 To ArrSh.Count
        ArrSh(uSh).Name = shName(uSh - 1)
    Next
End Sub
or if you want to keep it short,
Code:
call ArraySh
but I hardly see the point of the effort
