Hi...

Can anyone help me out here...initial help has been patchy. I'm beginning to
think this is impossible...

I have 4000 files all randomly saved with random file names, all in
the same folder called AA. The only thing the 4000 files have in common is
that each file contains a sheet called 'summary' and in cell D3 on that sheet
there is a number string sitting amongst random text eg:

Yellow Diggers 56673 Lincoln
Big Buses London 5566678 London Jan

I need code to open each file, extract the number from cell D3 and then to
rename the file with the extracted number. I need to do this for all files in
the folder. eg:

56673.xls
5566678.xls

Basically I need the code all linked to a macro button that will intiate the
entire process?

Big ask and I'm desperate. Thanks in advance.
