Import filename of .GetOpenFilename into specific sheet/cell

[Koosbie]

Hey! I'm pretty new to VBA, but I just need to add a code to import the filename of the selected file into A1 of sheet2. Here's what I have currently;

Sub ImportData()
Dim FileLocation As String

FileLocation = Application.GetOpenFilename
If FileLocation = "False" Then
Beep
Exit Sub
End If

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set ImportWorkbook = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=FileLocation)

ImportWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Range("A1:Z1000").Copy ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Range("A1")

ImportWorkbook.Close
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Worksheets("Scan sheet").Activate
Worksheets("Scan sheet").Select

Worksheets("Input data").Visible = xlSheetHidden
End Sub

Sheets(2).Range("A1").Value = FileLocation

 

[Koosbie]

Sheets(2).Range("A1").Value = FileLocation

Thanks for the quick reply!

I tried literally copy/paste that line and did not work, I also tried this and did not work....

Worksheets("Scan sheet").Range("A1").Value = FileLocation

if FileLocation have a value? its too simple not to work.

The FileLocation value would be the file thats selected, then automatically closed onces its data is imported. Ive tried the code in the VBA before the file is closed and its not working.. like i said, your talking to a rookie here hahaha
