Default Inserting a Filename

Yeah, not worded the best, but you got the answer perfect! That's exactly
what I was looking for. Thanks!

I'm not exactly sure what your question is, but you can insert the file name
into a cell with code like

Range("A1").Value = ActiveWorkbook.FullName

I need to write a macro that will consolidate data from a bunch of
different
files, but the files are pretty badly formatted, so I want to insert the
original filename into an extra column before I copy the data out of the
spreadsheet and paste it into the new, large spreadsheet. I was going to
just
use the Cell function to get the filename, then paste values so it didn't
change when I pasted them into the new spreadsheet, but that produces
errors
in my code.

Any suggestions?
