Seeking help with MACRO or VBA??? Open all files of type in directory and parse
I'm sure something like this must already have been done by someone -
can you help, this would save me a lot of time - and no, this is not some kind of school homework, it's to help with preparing patient lists in oncology. You can email me at my work email @leedsth.nhs.uk if required (first part of address is first name dot surname) I have a load of RTP files in a directory, I just want to have an Excel macro or VBA to look in a specific folder (can be browsed, but at the moment, am happy to have a hardcoded path T:\RTP), open all the RTP files it finds, each one contains a load of comma separated values enclosed in double quotes eg "item", "item", "", "item" (some are empty) I need to read the first few items for each RTP file in the folder, and store the first few items in a column for each patient record in a new excel file any help appreciated regards Lee |
