I have a whole slew of excel files that contain data that I want to
compile into a single excel sheet. I've been able to automatically
grab the values in each file, but am having a terrible time trying to
figure out how to grab the values of form controls. To be precise a
few option buttons groups and drop down controls. I know you could do
a cell link then just get the value from there, but unfortunately the
designer didn't do that and I have over a hundred files. I'm pretty
much lost. Is there any way to reference the value something like...

excelfile.worksheet.dropdown1.value

I've looked forever trying to find something, but I can't find
anything. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be
much appreciated.
Thanks
