Hello. I am new to macros and such. I am trying to make an excel
spreadsheet that will convert files (with known names) into more
descriptively named derived from some cells in excel..I have no idea
where to start :(

nima,
assuming you have you all your data on a worksheet, something like:
Dim FileName As Range
For Each FileName In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Data").Range("FileNames")
Name FileName.Value As FileName.Offset(0, 1).Value
Next

You should error checking to ensure the the files exist, names valid, etc.
