Hi all!
Tried looking all over but can't figure out why the code isn’t working. I am trying to run a code that, when you open excel, starts running and c/p values from cca. 10 different excel in one folder (the one that you open). But I am always getting error 1004. Help is much appreciated!
VBA Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()

    Dim wkbDest As Workbook
    Dim wkbSource As Workbook
    Set wkbDest = ThisWorkbook
    Dim LastRow As Long
    Dim strPath As String
    Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    ThisWorkbook.UpdateLinks = xlUpdateLinksNever
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False

    polna = 1
    taexcelzadnjavrstica = 0

    strPath = "C:\Users\Me\Desktop\teren"
    ChDir strPath
    strExtension = Dir("C:\Users\Me\Desktop\teren")
    Do While strExtension <> ""
        Set wkbSource = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=strPath & strExtension, UpdateLinks:=False)
        With wkbSource
           zadnjavrstica = wkbSource.Sheets("List1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
            wkbSource.Sheets("List1").Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(zadnjavrstica, 39)).Copy
            wkbDest.Sheets("List1").Range(Cells(polna + 1, 1), Cells(taexcelzadnjavrstica + zadnjavrstica, 39)).PasteSpecial xlValues 'this is the line that throws the error
            taexcelzadnjavrstica = taexcelzadnjavrstica + zadnjavrstica + 1
            polna = wkbDest.Sheets("List1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
            .Close savechanges:=False
        End With
        strExtension = Dir
    Loop
wkbDest.Sheets("List1").Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(taexcelzadnjavrstica + zadnjavrstica, 39)).Sort Key1:=Range("a1"), Order1:=xlAscending

ThisWorkbook.UpdateLinks = xlUpdateLinksAlways
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Hi,
welcome to forum

xlValues is not I think, a valid constant - replace it with xlPasteValues & see if resolves your issue.

Hi,
Thank you for the input but it still shows error.
The code runs when you open the excel and now it shows error 1004, method 'Cells' of object '_Global' failed.

How about
VBA Code:
        With wkbSource.Sheets("List1")
           zadnjavrstica = .Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
            .Range(.Cells(2, 1), .Cells(zadnjavrstica, 39)).Copy
            wkbDest.Sheets("List1").Range(wkbDest.Sheets("List1").Cells(polna + 1, 1), wkbDest.Sheets("List1").Cells(taexcelzadnjavrstica + zadnjavrstica, 39)).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
            taexcelzadnjavrstica = taexcelzadnjavrstica + zadnjavrstica + 1
            polna = wkbDest.Sheets("List1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
            .Parent.Close savechanges:=False
        End With

            .Parent.Close savechanges:=False
        End With
Yes, yes, yes...now it works and doesn't throws erros.
Lots of thanks to both of you!
