Default feed data in multiple files without opening them

An Excel file containing two columns of information, first column is a
list of .xls filenames (the list is created in DOS: dir -b *.xls
filelist.txt) and the second column is a list of corresponding strings

that need to be fitted into the F2 cell of the corresponding .xls file.
I would like to seek for help for accomplish it using VBA, and without
opening the list of .xls files.

Why can't you open the files?

Hi Tim,
The list of files would be 150, and I remember that the feeding could
be done without keeping opening and closing the files by stating the
complete path of the files, but I just don't know the proper syntax to
do it. Please help.
