List all filenames & tab names
What I would like to do is, within Excel, create a list down one column of
all the file names within a certain folder. Listed with the filename, somehow, I would like to have a list of all the tab names within each of the listed file names. Any ideas? Thanks again! |

Sounds like a question for the excel.programming newsgroup.
It is SHEETS that have names; theses names are on the TABS. -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "Deeds" wrote in message ...

I think you would have to use DIR to get the names of
Sub FindExcelFiles() 'It does work. Application.ScreenUpdating = False Dim FN As String ' For File Name Dim ThisRow As Long Dim FileLocation As String FileLocation = "c:\ahorse\*.xls" FN = Dir(FileLocation) Do Until FN = "" ThisRow = ThisRow + 1 Cells(ThisRow, 1) = FN FN = Dir Loop Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub within the for/loop, LIst the fileopen the file and incorporate something like this to get the sheets For i = 1 To Sheets.Count Cells(i, 1).Value = Sheets(i).Name Next i -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "Deeds" wrote in message ...

Thanks... can you let m e know how to get the sheet names that are in each
file? I don't follow the end of your suggestion about the fileopen. Ultimately this is what I want..... I open an excel file....put my cursor on cell A1...start the macro...it populates column A with all of the files in designated folder...under each filename...indented slightly is a list of all the sheet names within that file....and so on through all the files in that folder. Hope this helps....thanks for your efforts I appreciate it! "Don Guillett" wrote: I think you would have to use DIR to get the names of Sub FindExcelFiles() 'It does work.

Why not have the sheet names going across, in line with the file name
they refer to? Pete |
