Do any of you know how I could go about opening one specific file from each of about 100 zipped files?
To clarify a bit - I have about 100 zipped files out on a network drive. Each of those zipped files contains a .dat file called "ABC.dat" (it's ALWAYS the same name). In a nutshell, I'd like to have the contents of all the ABC.dat files in one continuous spreadsheet.
Each ABC.dat file is straightforward... data is only 2 columns wide and consists of between 4,000 and 6,000 lines, so I can import all the data to 1 sheet with no problem (using Excel 2007).
I've tried a solution from Ron De Bruin, but it only opens 1 file at a time. Before I start mucking around with it, I wanted to check with the experts (y'all) to see if you had any tricks up your sleeves that could help make this a little easier.
Thanks
JP
