This should do the job you need to modify the selection criteria and the get
data lines.

Sub getdata()
' directory where the data is with the trailing \
Const cszDir As String = "C:\data\"
' prefix for the file name
Const cszFilePrefix As String = "file"
' extension for the file name
Const cszFileExtension As String = ".xls"

Dim wsd As Worksheet
Dim wbc As Workbook
Dim lRowDst As Long
Dim szFileCur As String
Dim szDir As String

Set wsd = ActiveSheet
lRowDst = 2
szFileCur = Dir(cszDir & cszFilePrefix & _
"*" & cszFileExtension)
Do While szFileCur < ""
Set wbc = Workbooks.Open(szFileCur, , True)
'get data
wsd.Cells(lRowDst, 1) = wbc.Worksheets(1).Range("A1")
wsd.Cells(lRowDst, 2) = wbc.Worksheets(1).Range("C1")
wsd.Cells(lRowDst, 3) = wbc.Worksheets(1).Range("D1")
'....
wbc.Close False
szFileCur = Dir
lRowDst = lRowDst + 1
Loop
End Sub

I need to find a solution to the folowing problem:

There is a network folder with an Exel workbook for every week in the year.
Each Friday it is updated with one new sheet for that week. All the data
contained is in the same format. I need to create a single file that when
one presses a button, will go through all of the workbooks in the network
drive and pull specific information and populate it into the one file. Is
this possible? Any help would be appreciated.
