Hello!
I have two different spreadsheets.
On Spreadsheet 1, I have subset of data in column A and I need descriptions to populate in column B that match that subset.
On Spreadsheet 2, I have a set of data in column C and matching descriptions in column D.
What I want to do is, open only spreadsheet 1, manually and then have VBA open spreadsheet 2 and execute the following vlookup formula from column B of spreadsheet 1: "=Vlookup(A1,'[Title I provide]!'$C:$D,2,false)"
After that I know I can record a macro that copies and pastes as values but I don't know how to have VBA prompt me to open the second file and continue to execute thereafter.
If anyone can help, it would save me hours of manual manipulation.
Thanks,
