VBA retrieving data from closed workbooks

I am attempting to copy sheets named "Lockbox" from various closed workbooks (source workbooks) into one Master workbook (destination workbook). I have found a macro that allows the user to select the files that I want to copy from, and supposedly paste the data into the new Master workbook. It then names the new sheet in the Master workbook extract1. The Macro seems to work, because I see the source books opening, but there is no data on the newly created sheet in the destination workbook. I want the macro to copy the entire sheet and into the destination workbook. The macro allows the user to keep selecting workbooks until they cancel, each time creating a new sheet in the destination workbook, naming it extract2, etc. I think the part of the code that's missing is the actual "copy" piece, where it knows what to copy and paste. I am new to VBA. Can someone please advise. Thanks. Here is the code:

Sub ValuesfromClosedWorkbook()
Dim filetoopen As String
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet

filetoopen = Application _
.GetOpenFilename("XL Files (*.xlsx), *.xlsx")
On Error Resume Next

Set wb = Workbooks.Open(filetoopen, True, True)
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Add

With ws
.Cells.Value = wb.Worksheets("Lockbox").Cells.Value
End With
ws.Name = "extract1"

wb.Close False

filetoopen = Application _
.GetOpenFilename("XL Files (*.xls), *.xls")
On Error Resume Next

Set wb = Workbooks.Open(filetoopen, True, True)
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Add

With ws
.Cells.Value = wb.Worksheets("Lockbox").Cells.Value
End With
ws.Name = "extract2"
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Before even thinking about this, can I ask that you remove the On Error Resume Next to see if any errors are occuring?

Glenn, Thanks for your reply. I have since modified the code to the following: (row numbers are for posting references only)

My questions at this point are:
1. How do I get the cycle to repeat itself without having to repeat the code (rows 27-42)?
2. How do I get the cycle to repeat itself until the user selects "cancel" from the Open file dialogue box?
3. The source workbooks have names that I don't want to copy over, so I'm deleting them after each copy. Is there a way to not copy them over in the first place?
4. I did remove the On Error resume next, and it still ran fine.

You have On Error Resume Next in more than one place. Did you remove both of them when testing?

If you step through the macro one row at a time, do you see a new sheet appear in Lockbox Project macros.xlsm when the sheet Copy command is performed?

Hi & Welcome to the Board!
See the answers on your questions 1, 2 in the code below:
Rich (BB code):

Sub RetrieveData1()
  Dim FileToOpen As Variant, File As Variant, MasterWb As Workbook, Wb As Workbook
  On Error GoTo exit_
  Set MasterWb = ThisWorkbook ' or = Workbooks("Lockbox Project macros.xlsm")
  Do
    ' Use Ctrl to select more than 1 file - see MultiSelect parameter
    FileToOpen = Application.GetOpenFilename("XL Files (*.xlsx), *.xlsx", MultiSelect:=True)
    If Application.ScreenUpdating Then Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    ' Exit loop if user exits dialog
    If FileToOpen = False Then Exit Do
    ' Copy sheet to MasterWb
    With MasterWb
      For Each File In FileToOpen
        ' Open file (Wb), copy its LOCKBOX sheet to MasterWb
        Set Wb = Workbooks.Open(File, True, True)
        Wb.Sheets("LOCKBOX").Copy .Sheets(1)
        ' Delete names added to MasterWb
        .Names("Date_Corrected").Delete
        .Names("Facility").Delete
        .Names("FacilityIN").Delete
        .Names("Payer").Delete
        .Names("PTGL").Delete
        Wb.Close False
      Next
    End With
  Loop  ' <-- Do-Loop is for the case the user dosn't use MultiSelect option
exit_:
  Application.CutCopyMode = False
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
  If Err Then MsgBox Err.Description
End Sub

3. Seems that deleting names is not hard work.
But alternatively you can use PasteSpecial. This copies all but the cells heights:
Rich (BB code):

  Set Wb = Workbooks.Open(FileToOpen, True, True)
  Wb.Sheets("LOCKBOX").UsedRange.Copy
  With MasterWb.Sheets.Add(MasterWb.Sheets(1)).Cells(1, 1)
    .PasteSpecial xlPasteAll
    .PasteSpecial xlPasteColumnWidths
  End With

Glen, I copied the code as you had it into a module and tried to run it. After selectiing a file from the Open Dialogue box I got a Message box that said Type mismatch. I don't know what this means. The macro didn't error out anywhere, just popped up with the message box and that was it.

Please replace: If FileToOpen = False Then Exit Do
by: If VarType(FileToOpen) = vbBoolean Then Exit Do
