Default Creation of Import Files

I'm trying to take data from 74 Excel files, 8 worksheets and import it into
an Access database. I'm fairly fluent in Access, and I can accomplish this,
but the import process is extremely slow (5 hours) due to the fact all the
Excel files are linked. If I use Copy/Paste Special/Values, the links are
broken and the import time drops to about an hour, which is acceptable.

I'm looking for an automated means in Excel to loop through all 74 files, 8
worksheets per file, and apply a Copy/Paste Special/Values command within
each worksheet. Help?
