Hi, I have excel 2003 and i use macro to copy data from a file that ends in .xlsx. the data file is coming from a department other than mine and i used macro to automatically copy the data from the .xlsx file to my excel file. However i cannot open .xlsx file using macro, and am wondering if I need to use some special code to do; i.e.,
Workbooks.Open Filename:=MRfile, UpdateLinks:=0, WriteResPassword:="4701", converter:=true?

I never used converter before and please let me know how to approach this to automatically open .xlsx file. Thank you for your help ;)

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
Hi Sektor, I have and my code is

Workbooks.Open Filename:=SIMSfile, UpdateLinks:=0, WriteResPassword:="1111", Password:="1111"

But it won't do it still I am not so sure why :confused:

yea but it won't work because recording macro did not result in any code writing.
Somehow it work at my co-workers computer but not mine. I am not sure why.
