How to import the entire row(s) containing current (today's) date from a excel file into another excel file automatically without opening with VBA

I am new to VBA programming. I want to import the entire row/(s)(example range from column "A" to "BT")that contains only current (today's) date (example, date is in column "B5") from a source excel sheet into current(backup excel)excel sheet automatically without opening the source excel.So, that I can backup my data regularly at the end of the day from backup excel file.

Actually, the source worksheet is being updated regularly and in a day I have 5-10 new rows with the same date(current/today's) and so I want to copy all the new data(s) to backup excel sheet in rows next to previous day's backup in a backup excel file every day.
Thank you
The below VBA code seems working but it is copying the only column of interest but I need the entire rows to be copied. Do you have any idea to modify the below VBA code so that, it will also copy entire rows?



Option Explicit


Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Call ReadDataFromCloseFile
End Sub




Sub ReadDataFromCloseFile()
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
Application.ScreenUpdating = False



Dim src As Workbook

' OPEN THE SOURCE EXCEL WORKBOOK IN "READ ONLY MODE".
Set src = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\HAMENDRA\Desktop\Equation\Otarry.xlsm", True, True)


' GET THE TOTAL ROWS FROM THE SOURCE WORKBOOK.
Dim iTotalRows As Integer
iTotalRows = src.Worksheets("Records").Range("B1:B" & Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row).Rows.Count

' COPY DATA FROM SOURCE (CLOSE WORKGROUP) TO THE DESTINATION WORKBOOK.
Dim iCnt As Integer ' COUNTER.
For iCnt = 1 To iTotalRows
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B" & iCnt).Formula = src.Worksheets("Records").Range("B" & iCnt).Formula
Next iCnt


' CLOSE THE SOURCE FILE.
src.Close False ' FALSE - DON'T SAVE THE SOURCE FILE.
Set src = Nothing


ErrHandler:
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
