Hello all, I'm attempting to run a macro to open all files in a
directory however, the directory changes from month to month (i.e. from Apr to May and so on throughout the year. How can I point to the new directory each month? This is the code I'm using now, but I want to allow different users to run this monthly and they are not savy on going in and editing my macro to change the directory path, and I'm happy that thay can't. Appreciate any assistance with this macro. Thank you, Ron Sub Open_Files_In_A_Directory() Dim fileList() As String Dim fName As String Dim fPath As String Dim i As Integer 'define the directory to be searched for files fPath = "T:\Budget Reports\NAPO\National Parts Operations\01 Apr\" 'build a list of the files fName = Dir(fPath & "*.xls") While fName < "" 'add fname to the list i = i + 1 ReDim Preserve fileList(1 To i) fileList(i) = fName 'get next filename fName = Dir() Wend 'see if any files were found If i = 0 Then MsgBox "No files found" Exit Sub End If 'cycle through the list and open 'just those with the letter DP in the filename 'instr the following way is a case insensitive test For i = 1 To UBound(fileList) If InStr(1, fileList(i), "DP", 1) 0 Then Workbooks.Open fPath & fileList(i) End If Next End Sub |
