Default Open files with String prefix

Hi All......

Present problem is, how can I open all the files in the default directory
that have a specific string as the prefix (ie: abcdefg) so that I may
extract data from them? I do not know how many files there will be, and
the directory will have other files in it that I do not wish to open.

Any guidance would be much appreciated,
Vaya con Dios,
Chuck, CABGx3
