VBA to perform 'click' function

[R2ah1ze1l]

Good day all,

Struggling with this 'click' functionality. I have seen some instances where vba can be used to call a click function to occur. I am currently struggling with it. Mimicing lines of code is not working and I am curious if this is due to a naming issue, or that I have too much else taking place with the other vba routine that there is generated conflict.

I am recieving a Run-time error '424':
Object required

This occurs when the searched for information is not appearing in the requested file. It is hung up when trying to close the document. Here is the code:

  If ia > 16382 Then
   MsgBox "SN was not found in the document(s), ensure the SN and Issue# match output file(s)."
   Application.ScreenUpdating = True
   Range("A3").Select
   SRC_Workbook.Save 'need to store when import_click functionality is present
   SCR_Workbook.Close
    GoTo Leave
  End If

Here is the code that looks like it should perform the click function but clearly is not:

Worksheets("DATA").Select
Worksheets("DATA").Activate
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Data").Import.Value = True ' Import_Click from Tabulated Data sheets

I have tried everything I can think of to get this switch to function correctly. I can import data from the original file with other instances of Excel open. I can also have 1 instance and other workbooks open. So that doesn't seem to be my hardship, I'm hoping someone may have another idea. FYI the buttons name is 'Import' and in the same case as referenced. Is 'Import' and illegal term to use for a button name?

Solution FOUND!!!

Thank you all for your support. This was a foolish error on my behalf where I did not reset a pathline that ultimately determines where to pull the data from. (I have everything moved to my local for testing and the main info is all in a server)
I was able to learn a lot from the support you all gave and below is my final project!

I've left in the samples provided to help others see options should this be searched in future: (I removed information '###' that should not be shared for varying reasons)

The data won't be retained in what file? Tabulated Data file

Also, why would the CSV be deleted? CSV is killed off within code to help limit used storage space.

Even if the original code did the above couldn't you copy it and adjust it so it doesn't.

I wanted to limit any additional modifications possible. If this *new* file needs to be updated, it now can without concern in relation to the master file *Tabulated Data*. Well, it's closer..I still need to figure out a couple small items to ensure ALL the data is copied and pasted properly. I have those area's hard coded currently. With a little time, I will learn the how to fix for that.
