Default repetitive text imports

I'm importing many files into excel using text import wizard. I delineate
them all exactly the same but it takes time to do it. I was wandering if
there was a way to do it automatically with a macro, etc? thank you for any
help

Hi,
Go to Tools Macro Record New Macro...
Then go through your import wizrd routine and, when you're finished, click
the stop recording button.
Post back if you need help from there.
