Open All Excel Workbooks in Many Folders One by One
The workbook and code below opens all excel workbooks in many folders one-by-one to pull data from them one-by-one so that you can auto-pull hundreds of files without even looking and stack information daily from hundreds of excel files in hundreds of different folders.
Code:
Sub FolderAndFileMacro()
Dim mypath As String
Dim myfile As String
Dim myfile2
Dim myextension As String
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim FldrPicker As FileDialog
Dim xx As Double
Dim oFSO As Object
Dim folder As Object
Dim subfolders As Object
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set folder = oFSO.GetFolder("C:\Users\18622\OneDrive\Desktop\New folder\")
Set subfolders = folder.subfolders
xx = subfolders.count
Set oFSO = Nothing
Set folder = Nothing
Set subfolders = Nothing
'release memory
Dim x As Double
x = 1
Do Until x > xx
mypath = "C:\Users\18622\OneDrive\Desktop\New folder\" & x & "\"
'pull file names from Module 2 called GrabFilenamesfromFolder. It pulls the file names from the folder you select and set to mypath variable.
GrabFilenamesfromFolder (mypath)
