I have about 20 folders with similar names such as ABC00, ABC01, ABC02,
ABC04, and so on. Most of them are consinuous. Each folder consists of an
excel file with the same name as the folder: ABC00.xls, ABC01.xls, and so on.
I need to print out the first worksheet of each file. Is there a way to do
that using macro?
Thanks in advance,
Lisa
