Copy Paste between Different Workbook - vba

Hi I want to copy and paste the range to mainworkbook, however, the range is pasted at babyworkook8 instead. Please help
Option Explicit
Dim mainworkbook As Workbook
Dim babyworkbook8 As Workbook
Sub Copypaste()
Set babyworkbook8 = Workbooks.Open("\\C:\IT Charges\IT Charges August.xlsx")
babyworkbook8.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("D4:F27").Copy
Set mainworkbook = Workbooks.Open("\\C:\Users\ivan\Desktop\IT Charges\IT
Summary Charges.xlsm")
mainworkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("R1").PasteSpecial
End Sub

This is a bit long winded, but it clearly defines the source and destination ranges:
Sub CopyPaste()
Dim SourceBook As Workbook
Dim DestBook As Workbook
Dim SourceSheet As Worksheet
Dim DestSheet As Worksheet
Dim SourceRange As Range
Dim DestRange As Range
Set SourceBook = Workbooks.Open("\\C:\IT Charges\IT Charges August.xlsx")
Set DestBook = Workbooks.Open("\\C:\Users\ivan\Desktop\IT Charges\IT Summary Charges.xlsm")
Set SourceSheet = SourceBook.Sheets("Sheet1")
Set DestSheet = DestBook.Sheets("Sheet1")
Set SourceRange = SourceSheet.Range("D4:F27")
Set DestRange = DestSheet.Range("R1")
SourceRange.Copy DestRange
End Sub

copying range end xl down pasting different Wb

I've got a macro recorder code (with select and activate) that I'm trying to simplify. It currently looks like this:
Windows("Stambestand.xlsm").Activate
Range("AA2").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.Copy
Windows("Ijking document.xlsm").Activate
Range("B3").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
As of recently I've started using variables and want to trim down the code. I'm thinking along these lines:
WbStambestand.WsStam.Range("AA2", Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Copy WbIjk.WsIjk.range("A1").paste
Workbooks("WbStambestand").Worksheets("WsStam").Range("AA2", Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Copy
However, these don't function. I'm hoping you guys can help me along. Much appreciated.
FYI, these are my variables (they are declared). The Ijk ones are the paste destination.
Dim WbStambestand, WbIjk As Workbook
Dim WsIjk, WsStam As Worksheet
Set WsIjk = ActiveSheet
Set WbIjk = ActiveWorkbook
Set WsIjk = ActiveSheet
Set WbIjk = ActiveWorkbook
Set WbStambestand = Workbooks.Open(stam)
Set WsStam = WbStambestand.Worksheets("stambestand")
Try this
Sub abc()
Dim WbStambestand As Workbook
Dim WbIjk As Workbook
Dim WsIjk As Worksheet
Dim WsStam As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim stam As String
stam = "C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\Stambestand.xlsm" ' path with complete file name with extension.
Set WsIjk = ActiveSheet
Set WbIjk = ThisWorkbook ' workbook which has current code
Set WbStambestand = Workbooks.Open(stam)
Set WsStam = WbStambestand.Worksheets("stambestand")
LastRow = WsStam.Range("AA2").End(xlDown).Row
WsStam.Range("AA2:AA" & LastRow).Copy WsIjk.Range("B3")
End Sub

Looping through all files in a folder (encountering run time error '-2147221080 (800401a8)')

I am running a code that aims to pull in data from all workbooks within a specific folder. I have written the code for the loop separate from the code for the pulling in of data.
Sub FixedIncomeLoop()
Dim file As Variant
Dim wb1 As Workbook
Dim wb2 As Workbook
Dim folderpath As String
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
Set wb1 = ActiveWorkbook
Set ws = ActiveSheet
folderpath = "C:\Users\Wei Hong\Documents\Trade Tickets\"
file = Dir(folderpath)
While (file <> "")
Set wb2 = Workbooks.Open(file)
Set ws2 = wb2.Worksheets("Trade Ticket")
Call FixedIncome(wb1, ws, ws2)
wb2.Close SaveChanges:=False
Set wb2 = Nothing
Wend
End Sub
Private Sub FixedIncome(wb1 As Workbook, ws As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet)
Dim ws3 As Worksheet
Set ws3 = wb1.Worksheets("Constants") <-- facing error
ws.Activate
...
End Sub
I am facing the runtime error above. Not sure why!

1004 error for using usedrange

I am trying to copy over values from one workbook to another using the usedrange function (there are some blanks in certain rows and it is fine to copy over the blank as well), but I am getting the 1004 error:
Sub ActiveInactiveVendors()
Dim ActiveWkb As Workbook, Wkb As Workbook, InactiveWkb As Workbook
Dim ActiveWkst As Worksheet, Wkst As Worksheet, InactiveWkst As Worksheet
Dim aCell As Range
Dim targetRng As Range
Set ActiveWkb = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\clara\Desktop\active vendors.xlsx")
Set Wkb = ThisWorkbook
Set Wkst = Wkb.Sheets("Vendors")
Set ActiveWkst = ActiveWkb.Worksheets("aqlc7da48e7")
'set column A starting from A7
Set targetRng = Wkst.Range("A7" & Wkst.Rows.Count)
'get the values starting from a32 to the last row used and set it in wkst
targetRng.Value = ActiveWkst.Range("A32" & ActiveWkst.UsedRange.Rows.Count).Value
End Sub
I appreciate any feedback! Thank you
This line:
Set targetRng = Wkst.Range("A7" & Wkst.Rows.Count)
is not correct. You are not getting A7:A1048576 but a concatenating of the two. So it is looking for A71048576 which does not exist
Then you should use similar sized ranges when setting values.
Sub ActiveInactiveVendors()
Dim ActiveWkb As Workbook, Wkb As Workbook, InactiveWkb As Workbook
Dim ActiveWkst As Worksheet, Wkst As Worksheet, InactiveWkst As Worksheet
Dim aCell As Range
Dim targetRng As Range, origRng As Range
Set ActiveWkb = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\clara\Desktop\active vendors.xlsx")
Set Wkb = ThisWorkbook
Set Wkst = Wkb.Sheets("Vendors")
Set ActiveWkst = ActiveWkb.Worksheets("aqlc7da48e7")
'set column A starting from A7
Set origRng = ActiveWkst.Range("A32", ActiveWkst.Cells(ActiveWkst.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp))
Set targetRng = Wkst.Range("A7", Wkst.Cells(origRng.Rows.Count + 6, 1))
'get the values starting from a32 to the last row used and set it in wkst
targetRng.Value = origRng.Value
End Sub

Copy specific entire column from file 1 to 2

Hello I'm trying to copy columns C, R, W,X from file 1 to file 2 with below code but keep getting an error. My VBA knowledge isn't that good yet but probably has to do with the range setting? I've tried multiple ways but can't get it to work.
Am I using the right setting or should I use another action to get the specific columns?
Sub PFS()
Dim wbCopy As Workbook
Dim wsCopy As Worksheet
Dim rngCopy As Range
Dim wbPaste As Workbook
Dim wsPaste As Worksheet
Dim rngPaste As Range
Set wbPaste = ActiveWorkbook
Set wbCopy = Workbooks.Open("path to copy")
Set wsCopy = wbCopy.Worksheets("Blad1")
Set rngCopy = wsCopy.Range("d, e").EntireColumn
Set wsPaste = wbPaste.Worksheets("PFS")
Set rngPaste = wsPaste.Range("a1")
rngCopy.Copy
rngPaste.PasteSpecial
Workbooks.Application.CutCopyMode = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
wbCopy.Save
wbCopy.Close
End Sub

Copy form External Workbook XLDOWN into Current workbook

I am trying to copy all the results from cell "A9" tell the end of the data using XLDOWN from the the file named "DDR" & tab named "everett" and paste it back into the workbook im currently using.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Sub XLDOWN1()

Dim wbSource As Workbook, wbDest As Workbook
Dim wsSource As Worksheet, wsDest As Worksheet
Dim rngSource As Range, rngDest As Range
Set wbSource = Workbooks.Open("G:\GAGC\Accounting\Payroll\Payroll\Analysis Macro Upload\DDR.xlsx", , True)
Set wsSource = wbSource.Worksheets("Everett")
ws.Range("A9", Range("A9").End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.Copy
Set rngSource = wsSource.Range("A9").Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown))
Set wbDest = ThisWorkbook
Set wsDest = wbDest.Worksheets("2016")
Set rngDest = wsDest.Range("A4") 'Destination Cell
rngDest.Value = rngSource.Value 'Copies values over only
wbSource.Close (False) 'Close without saving changes
End Sub
Give this a shot. There were a few issues in the code you provided that should be clear after seeing the refactored code below.
Dim wbSource As Workbook, wbDest As Workbook
Dim wsSource As Worksheet, wsDest As Worksheet
Dim rngSource As Range, rngDest As Range
'set up source workbook, sheet, range
Set wbSource = Workbooks.Open("G:\GAGC\Accounting\Payroll\Payroll\Analysis Macro Upload\DDR.xlsx", , True)
Set wsSource = wbSource.Worksheets("Everett")
Set rngSource = wsSource.Range(wsSource.Range("A9"), wsSource.Range("A9").End(xlDown))
'set up destination workbook, sheet, range
Set wbDest = ThisWorkbook
Set wsDest = wbDest.Worksheets("2016")
Set rngDest = wsDest.Range("A4") 'Destination Cell
rngSource.Copy Destination:=rngDest
wbSource.Close False
