Extract Text File data to worksheet - excel

Question

I want to paste the columns of this text file in my workbook.
USAF-WBAN_ID STATION NAME COUNTRY STATE LATITUDE LONGITUDE ELEVATION
------------ ------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ -------- --------- ---------
404200 99999 AL AHSA SAUDI ARABIA +25.285 +049.485 +0179.2
I want to pull 7 variables (7 columns)
USAF-WBAN_ID; STATION NAME; COUNTRY; STATE; LATITUDE; LONGITUDE; ELEVATION
Below is what I've tried in several variations, and results are not reliable.
Sub A1_StationID()
Dim vFile As Variant
Dim wbCopyTo As Workbook
Dim wsCopyTo As Worksheet
Dim wbCopyFrom As Workbook
Dim wsCopyFrom As Worksheet
Set wbCopyTo = ActiveWorkbook
Set wsCopyTo = ActiveSheet
MsgBox "Please select weather stn.txt document"
Dim vFileName
vFileName = Application.GetOpenFilename("Text Files (*.txt), *.txt")
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:=vFileName, _
Origin:=xlMSDOS, StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlFixedWidth, _
FieldInfo:=Array(Array(0, 1), Array(13, 1), Array(44, 1), _
Array(127, 1), Array(136, 1), Array(147, 1), Array(154, 1)), _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=False, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, _
Other:=False, TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
Set wbCopyFrom = Workbooks.Open(vFileName)
End Sub
Some of the output I get:
If I add a breakpoint on the second to last line of code, I get closer to the output I desire (with messed up columns).

Answer 1

First off - fantastic job posting working code and usable example data.
You were missing the array/field info designation for state and your final 3 columns were ~1/2 characters off. I removed the delimiter options as they don't matter if you're using xlFixedWidth.
Change
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:=vFileName, _
Origin:=xlMSDOS, StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlFixedWidth, _
FieldInfo:=Array(Array(0, 1), Array(13, 1), Array(44, 1), _
Array(127, 1), Array(136, 1), Array(147, 1), Array(154, 1)), _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=False, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, _
Other:=False, TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
to
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:=vFileName, _
Origin:=xlMSDOS, StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlFixedWidth, _
FieldInfo:=Array(Array(0, 1), Array(13, 1), Array(44, 1), _
Array(95, 1), Array(126, 1), Array(135, 1), Array(144, 1), Array(154, 1)), _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
As a side-note Excel has a bad tendency to remember Text to Columns settings so if you were messing with those earlier, make sure they are set to standard settings.
