    Finding external Excel files and crating a dashboard.

    Problem:

    I have a folder where Excel files(.xls) are frequently being added and updated. I need to build a "dashboard" type Excel file that can:

    1) look in this folder
    2) find any Excel files
    3) take a totals row from these files
    4) add the totals rows in a single row on the Excel file I am creating.

    It would be worth recording this sequence to get m ost of the necessary code. Then you can amend this with a section which uses the DIR(Path*.xls) statement to get the list of files. Then just loop the macro around.
