Hi All,
I dont have much expertise in VBA but trying to learn.
I am trying to import multiple csv files into excel. I have a macro
from this forum to import the files one by one. But I want to be able
to select and open the multiple files at once. Also with the macro that
i have, the names of shees are coming like Sheet1, Sheet2 etc. I want
to retain the names of the files for the sheets if possible.
Many thanx for your efforts.
Appending the macro I am using. U can suggest completely different
approach If you think that open dialog box is not best.
Using Excel 2003. Not much expertise in VBA.
Thank You,
Santosh
