I am trying to design a macro to automate importing a csv file. I currently put the filename without the extension in column A.

I currently have the macro so it lets you choose the file first, then loops through column A to find that file name without extension. I want to offset by one column (to column B) and import the information starting there.

The macro runs, however, column A is is moved to column U and the import happens at A1? Just can't seem to figure out what I am doing wrong.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Code:
Sub CSVauto()
'
' CSVauto Macro
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Option+Cmd+x
'
'   Declaring and setting variables for choosing CSV to import
    Dim csvFileName As Variant
    
    
'Prompt window to choose csv file
csvFileName = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="")
If csvFileName = False Then Exit Sub


'Setting a variable to find Experimental form name in Data Summary
Dim whatToFind As String




'Declaring that variable
csvNoExt = Replace(csvFileName, ".csv", "")
whatToFind = csvNoExt


'Looping through A column to find csvFileName without .csv extension
    Columns("A:A").Select
        Set cell = Selection.Find(What:=whatToFind, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, _
        LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
        MatchCase:=False)
        
'Selecting cell in column B for csv input
    If Not cell Is Nothing Then
        cell.Select
    End If
    
Dim newRange As Range
Set newRange = Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1))
    
    
'Formatting for CSV and input
With newRange.Parent.QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;" & csvFileName, Destination:=newRange)
        .FieldNames = True
        .RowNumbers = False
        .FillAdjacentFormulas = False
        .RefreshOnFileOpen = False
        .BackgroundQuery = True
        .RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
        .SavePassword = False
        .SaveData = True
        .AdjustColumnWidth = True
        .TextFilePromptOnRefresh = False
        .TextFilePlatform = xlMacintosh
        .TextFileStartRow = 1
        .TextFileParseType = xlDelimited
        .TextFileTextQualifier = xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote
        .TextFileConsecutiveDelimiter = True
        .TextFileTabDelimiter = True
        .TextFileSemicolonDelimiter = False
        .TextFileCommaDelimiter = True
        .TextFileSpaceDelimiter = True
        .TextFileColumnDataTypes = Array(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)
        .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
        .UseListObject = False
    End With
 
 'Formatting DataSummary sheet to fit "requirements" :)
    Cells.Replace What:=">=", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, MatchCase:=False
    Cells.Replace What:="C121", Replacement:="C2", LookAt:=xlPart, _
        SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, MatchCase:=False
    Cells.Replace What:="P1211", Replacement:="P21", LookAt:=xlPart, _
        SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, MatchCase:=False
        


End Sub
