Default HELP: Import several TXT files into Excel

Dear all,

I need to import 100 TXT files into a single excel file for my Ph. D.
Dissertation.
All the files have the same structu only 1 column with 60 rows each,
like this:

01 - I
02 - C
03 - C
60 - I

I'd need to end up with an excel file that included 250 columns, one
for each file, and the name of the corresponding file on top of each
column, like this:

File1 File2 File100
01 - I 01 - C 01 - C
02 - C 02 - I 02 - I
03 - C 03 - C 03 - I
60 - I 60 - C 60 - I

I have little Excel experience, but I know how to paste code into a
module in the Visual Basic Editor. Please find below the code I get if
I import 1 single file into my Excel Workbook, in case it helps.

YOUR HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-D
