How to count # of .xls files in a directory - I NEED HELP PLEASE

Hello

Can someone help me with a Macro that reads and counts the number of .xls files in a directory, list them on an Excel sheet and count the number of records (rows) that each file has?

Please please please please

I really need help.

Hello

1. These files have multiple sheets... but the info we need always comes from sheet "NPI Spreadsheet"
2. There should not be any blank rows. Records (rows) that need to be counted start from (including) row 11. If there are any blanks they should be ignored.
3. Path and then only filename.
4. Ideally user should be prompted to select the folder.

I was able to find a code that helped me a lot. Now I'm looking to add to this also the last date the files were modify, the last date they were accessed , also the # of columns the file has based on row 2 data....and last how to run the macro and have the results listed in the ActiveSheet and do not open a new workbook for this.

Below the code I'm using right now

Option Explicit
Sub SKUs_Counter()
Dim MyPath As String, FilesInPath As String
Dim MyFiles() As String
Dim SourceRcount As Long, FNum As Long
Dim mybook As Workbook, BaseWks As Worksheet
Dim sourceRange As Range, destRange As Range
Dim rnum As Long, CalcMode As Long
Dim NumOfRecordsInSourceFile As Long
Const FirstDataRowInSourceFile As Long = 11 '#### change this if necessary

'Fill in the path\folder where the files are
' MyPath = "C:\Documents and Settings\xaxc091\My Documents\Work\Work2"
MyPath = "C:\Documents and Settings\xaxc091\My Documents\Work\Work2"
'Add a slash at the end if the user forget it
If Right(MyPath, 1) <> "\" Then
MyPath = MyPath & "\"
End If

'If there are no Excel files in the folder exit the sub
FilesInPath = Dir(MyPath & "*.xl*")
If FilesInPath = "" Then
MsgBox "No spreadsheets found"
Exit Sub
End If

'Fill the array(myFiles)with the list of Excel files in the folder
FNum = 0
Do While FilesInPath <> ""
FNum = FNum + 1

ReDim Preserve MyFiles(1 To FNum)
MyFiles(FNum) = FilesInPath
FilesInPath = Dir()

Loop

End With

Thanks, two more things if you could help me with that. Is it possible to get information from a specific cell and throw the results in the same sheet? I will like to get information from cell B1 (Header = Product Manager), Cell B4 (Header = PTIS), Cell F1 (Header = Batch Description), Cell F8 (Header = Batch #).

Also is it possible to count the number of different records in the category column (Column W). There might be 10 records there, but I need to know the count of different ones. ie: 5 records are 2345_DIV1 and other 5 are 2346_DIV1, meaning that the result should be 2. That result can be listed under the header # of Categories.

Please let me know if that makes sense. I'm from Panama and probably I can't explain myself well enough in English

Thanks

Ana
