Default User selection of folder and open all .xls files within folder

Hi Barb,

'-----------------
I need to allow the user to select a folder so that .xls files meeting a
specific file naming convention can be opened. I know how to create an
array of workbooks based upon that naming convention, but I've not been
successful in allowing the user to select a folder. How should I code
this?
