Dim sh as ***, bk as Workbook
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
set sh = Active***
set bk = workbooks.Open("C:\MyFolder\Book1.xls")
sh.Range("A1:Z1000").Value = _
bk.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:Z1000").Value
bk.Close SaveChanges:=False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Untested, but see if this is acceptable/works.

I am using the macro1 to grab values from a closed workbook. Column Z
contains text cells, many of which have text strings of approximately 1000
characters...so I am running into problems with the 255 character limit.
Is
there a way to modify the "Looper" macro at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/213841/ or some different macro in order
to
pull in the full text length of those cells in column z? Thanks! -Noah

Sub Macro1()
With Range("A1:Z1000")
.FormulaR1C1 = "='[Book1.xls]Sheet1!RC"
.Formula = Range("A1:Z1000").Value
End With
