Filename array
 

Hi All,
I need to cycle a set of command for each file in a list... the files
do not share folders, or filename structure or anything, so I really
need to hard-code the filenames in, and then define the next name after
each iteration. What's the best way of doing this... presumably define
an array of names and then cycle that?? How do I do that then?! :)

Thanks, as always,

Gareth

An added thought.
If the list of files will change, it might be easier to list them on a
worksheet then you can do

Dim v as Variant
with Worksheets("FileList")
set rng = .Range(.Cells(1,1),.Cells(1,1).End(xldown))
End With
v = rng.Value
for i = lbound(v) to ubound(v)
msgbox v(i,1)
Next

note that this is a 2D array with the second dimension 1 to 1.

Thanks Tom,
Actually, I already have a list of entries from which I could derive
the filenames, so that may be the easiest thing anyway.

Thanks for the follow-up..
