I am trying to insert content from 1000 text files into a column in excel and
I found this module in another post and am trying to modify it. The word
that needs to be replaced with the correct property is "MsoAlertDefaultType".
I'm not very knowledgable in VB so any help is greatly appreciated! The
module is below:

Sub Test()
Call ListWordFiles("C:\Biology")
End Sub

Sub ListWordFiles(Folder As String)
Dim NextFile As String
Dim L As Long
On Error Resume Next

NextFile = Dir(Folder & "\*")
Do Until NextFile = ""
L = L + 1
Cells(L, 1) = Folder & "\" & NextFile
Cells(L, 2) = FileDateTime(Folder & "\" & NextFile)
Cells(L, 3) = MsoAlertDefaultType(Folder & "\" & NextFile)
NextFile = Dir()
Loop
End Sub


Thanks,

All that does is list the filenames and their datetime.

If your doing 1000 files, then hopefully they are less than 65 rows each (on
average).


Sub Test()
Call ListWordFiles("C:\Biology")
End Sub

Sub ListWordFiles(Folder As String)
Dim NextFile As String
Dim L As Long
On Error Resume Next
set sh = ActiveSheet
NextFile = Dir(Folder & "\*.CSV")
Do Until NextFile = ""
set bk = workbooks.Open(Folder & "\" & nextFile)
bk.worksheets(1).UsedRange.Copy Destination:= _
sh.Cells(rows.count,1).End(xlup)(2)
bk.Close SaveChanges:=False
Loop
End Sub
