Hello,

I've read a fewof the threads on how to do this but I think they are more involved in what Iam trying to do… I have a current XLSMfile. When the user opens it, I want to importa particular worksheet copied into the current file where I have formulas inplace to interrogate the new data.

Thank you!

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    Set WB_CopySource = Workbooks.Open("C:\Support\Test.xlsx")   ' Workbook to copy FROM
    WB_CopySource.Sheets("Sheet1").Select  ' Sheet to copy
    Sheets("Sheet1").Copy Before:=Workbooks(ThisWorkbook.Name).Sheets(1) ' Where to copy the sheet TO
    WB_CopySource.Close ' Close the other WB
End Sub

That should get you started

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm now working with your version as well as another and they both fail trying to paste to the open file, so I'm close... I'm working in Excel 2016 if that helps?
