    Macro to open, update links, save then close all files in sub folders

    Hi All,

    Was looking for some help with a macro. I found the macro below on this forum. I think its what i want but i dont want it opening files in the subfolders' subfolder. I hope that makes sense. I have my parent folder with a bunch of subfolders. Each subfolder has an xlsm file and another subfolder in it. I just want it to open the xlsm file, update links, save and close then move on to the next subfolder of the parent folder.

    Thank you in advance

    So I am guessing that path in the first LoopStarter is the parent folder, no files are opened there. You need the Looper to go down one more folder to find a file, then NOT go any deeper into that one folder?

    In that case I would recommend 3 macros instead of two.

    LoopStarter - what you currently have

    SubFolderFinder - a new macro that is the second part of the current Looper, just the part that finds SubFolders and calls the Looper.

    Looper - just the first half of your current Looper, only the part that loops through files in the one folder.
