Display names

[m_ravindran]

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me a way to display all the names of xls files in a
folder in a separate spreadsheet?

Thanks in advance,

M.Ravindran

You can do this manually by using the insert>hyperlink (or Ctrl+K) and
browsing to the files individually.

[Guest]

Bob,
I tried your code and found it didn't (for me) display all the
subfolder names ALTHOUGH it displayed the content. I initialised sfolder as:

sFolder = "C:\Documents and Settings\John\My Documents\"


In the example below, it only displays the C:\Documents and Settings as
folders in columns A & B but displays the contents (of sudoku) in column C; I
was expecting "John" in Column C, "My Documents" in D, "sudoku" in E and
contents in F.

C:\Documents and Settings\John\My Documents\sudoku

In other cases, it will display more levels but never the last subfolder.

Have I done something wrong or do I not understand (more likely!) how it
works?

TIA

This does all subfolders as well, and hyperlinks them

So Toppers is John is he?

I made a last minute change for woksheets only, and missed some I think.

Try this version and let me know if it again misses the last subfolder (do
you mean every last subfolder, or just the last one in the start folder?)

Bob,
Many thanks for the update which now does what I expected. I
haven't checked everything in minute detail but a random sample was 100%
correct so I am sure the whole is 100% OK.

Again, thanks for the correction ... much appreciated.
