Hi all!

I have a UDF that I utilise when I need to repetitively copy/paste multiple data ranges between two excel workbooks.

Code:
Sub ACopyPasta(CopyBook As Workbook, CopySheet As String, CopyRange As String, PasteBook As Workbook, PasteSheet As String, PasteRange As String, Optional transpose As Boolean = False)

Set CSheet = CopyBook.Sheets(CopySheet)
    CSheet.Activate
    CSheet.Range(CopyRange).Select
    Selection.Copy
    PasteBook.Activate
    PasteBook.Sheets(PasteSheet).Select
    Range(PasteRange).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues, transpose:=transpose
End Sub

The idea being that I can just call the function each time I need to perform a copy/paste, defining the variables as I go. It just keeps my main code from getting too cluttered.

This works perfectly fine with standard excel workbooks, but I cannot for the life of me get this working when the CopyBook is to be a CSV file, I just get a "ByRef argument type mismatch" at compile.

Does anybody know what variable type I should be using instead there? Google as failed me!

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