Default Step by Step Macro Help.

Miss Atlanta,
You are not going to have much success automating the process with VBA if
are not able to perform you routine manually.
Think about the Open..Copy/Move..Paste...Save...Close sequence that you will
have to achieve and record that.
See what you have and read about loops.

So start the recording, perform your actions and see the code that is

Hello helpers!

I need to know how to perform a step by step Macro. This is what I

would
like to do:
I have a folder on a shared drive and within that folder I have

several
excel files that need to all go into a master excel file. All the

excel
files have the same format and same headings. The master will look

just
like
the excel files except it will compile all the files into that one
spreadsheet (the master). This is where I need help. Can someone

give me
a
step by step process to use?
For Ex:
1)Go to Tools
2)Go to Macro ---Select Record New Macro
3).....

That is about all that I know. Do I have to select all the files in

that
folder and do something else? I am so confused! I need this info

ASAP as
I
need to implement this first thing in the morning for my boss!!!!
