![]() Group, I'm not sure if I should break this up or just ask for the whole enchilada. I'll start with the big picture. I want to launch a macro that will review all text files in a directory. If the file is <= 500 bytes, delete it. If its greater than 500 bytes, starting parsing the file. I want to have a single file, lets call it the master file (Excel) which will take parts of the text file(s) and log what is being copied from the text file. So my questions a 1. Can I delete files from within a spreadsheet? If so, how can I do it? 2. Can I append to an Excel file based on data found in multiple text files, each with a different name and potentially 1000's of text files? We test radios and each radio has a unique data file. The data is saved in text with each file having a unique name to it. I want to combine all the files into a master file. Later we analyize the data. Your thoughts on how I should approach this macro. I want to do this in VBA for Excel.
