Hello,

I got a VBA script from this group to import files with VBA and it has
worked like a charm until yesterday.  Now the processor stays pegged @
100% utilization when running the script and the import takes forever..

I thought it was a samba issue since I was pulling files from a mapped
drive, but I copied them locally and get the same results.

Any ideas?

script for reference:

Public Sub re_import_files()
Dim even As Integer
Dim mod2 As Integer
even = 2
For Each Cell In Selection
'    mod2 = (even - 2) * Int(even / 2)
   mod2 = even Mod 2
   even = even + 1
   If mod2 = 0 Then
       Sheets(Cell.Value).Activate
    '   AddSheet Cell.Value, "Template"
   Else
       ImportTextFile Cell.Value, Chr(9)
   End If
Next
End Sub

Public Sub ImportTextFile(Fname As String, Sep As String)

Dim RowNdx As Integer
Dim ColNdx As Integer
Dim TempVal As Variant
Dim WholeLine As String
Dim Pos As Integer
Dim NextPos As Integer
Dim SaveColNdx As Integer

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'On Error GoTo EndMacro:

'SaveColNdx = ActiveCell.Column
'RowNdx = ActiveCell.Row

SaveColNdx = 1
RowNdx = 1

Open Fname For Input Access Read As #1

While Not EOF(1)
   Line Input #1, WholeLine
   If Right(WholeLine, 1) <> Sep Then
       WholeLine = WholeLine & Sep
   End If
   ColNdx = SaveColNdx
   Pos = 1
   NextPos = InStr(Pos, WholeLine, Sep)
   While NextPos >= 1
       TempVal = Mid(WholeLine, Pos, NextPos - Pos)
       Cells(RowNdx, ColNdx).Value = TempVal
       Pos = NextPos + 1
       ColNdx = ColNdx + 1
       NextPos = InStr(Pos, WholeLine, Sep)
   Wend
   RowNdx = RowNdx + 1
Wend

EndMacro:
On Error GoTo 0
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Close #1

End Sub

Sub AddSheet(Sname As String, Fname As String)
   Sheets.Add After:=Sheets(Fname)
   ActiveSheet.Name = Sname
End Sub

Sub AddSheets()
   For Each Cell In Selection
       'Sheets.Add After:=Sheets("Template")
       'ActiveSheet.Name = Cell.Value
       AddSheet Cell.Value, "Template"
   Next
End Sub
