I want Excel 2010 to check a bunch of non-excel files in a folder without opening them for specific texts contained within, if each file contains the text then return a value to a specific cell in a worksheet
Example: there are 5 files in a folder each of which may contain the text 2009, 2010, 2011 or 2012. When each file is searched, return the matching text as a value to a cell on a worksheet. That is to say list the match down a column on a worksheet for each file.
application file.search was probably the solution to this prior to 2007, how is it possible to accomplish the above in 2010? I need full code please
