Hello - I have this VBA code which, if I am being honest is a mash up of some simple recorded actions, and a macro that I found online to convert CSVs to XLSX. Independently these work just fine, however when I bring them together I am currently getting a Compile Error: Expected End Sub.

This macro basically has 3 main functions that I am trying to achieve, across a few hundred CSV files exported from another program.

1) Select / Browse to folder where CSV files are located. (These folders change, so the option to select which folder is necessary)
2) Autofit all columns, complete a find & replace, hide columns, and format for printing
3) Convert all CSVs in folder selected, to XLSX using the same file name as the CSV

Here is my current code:

VBA Code:
Sub PrepCallScheduleFiles()
'
' PrepCallScheduleFiles Macro
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+a

'Run macro across muliple workbook files at the same time without opening them.
'A browse window should be displayed to select folder which contains the CSV files to apply this macro

        xFdItem = xFd.SelectedItems(1) & Application.PathSeparator
        xFileName = Dir(xFdItem & "*.xls*")
        Do While xFileName <> ""
            With Workbooks.Open(xFdItem & xFileName)

Hello !​
Yes 'cause you have two consecutive Sub codelines at the beginning of your code ‼ So try to remove one …​
Thanks for your help. I removed one, but am now getting Compile Error: Duplicate declaration in current scope.

It is flagging this : xFd As FileDialog in my code

According to VBA help - easy to read, at kid level - any procedure must start with a Sub codeline​
and must ends with an End Sub codeline before any other Sub codeline.​
But in your code there is no End Sub codeline before the second Sub codeline …​

Obviously according to the error message why did you create such duplicate codeline ?‼​
The reason why any Dim codeline must be at the top of the procedure like VBA help advises, avoiding this kind of coding error …​

As I said - I have mashed up a recorded macro - and one that I found online. I am not very familiar with VBA, obviously.

So, I have commented out the duplicate line. Now, it will run, and prompt me to select the folder. It actually prompts me twice. Presumably the first is to select the folder to convert the CSV files from, the second to select where to put the XLSX?

However, it only converts the first CSV file in the directory, then throws this error:

This line of code is highlighted yellow: Windows(xWsheet).Activate

As Coping / Pasting can't be coding so again an error but without knowing on which codeline the error raises​
it's just a challenge for some mind readers forum ! So check the yellow codeline in debug mode …​

As the workbook is already closed so the error raises ! Logic used needs a great review …​
