Hello Friends,

Requesting your help with VBA code to loop through a directory (simple folder holding a group of .txt files) to perform the below function on each .txt file. I was able to get the code to perform the function (shown below), but no idea how to create the code which will open each .txt file and have the contents copied and formatted onto an excel sheet. There may be 30+ files, hence, the loop is welcome.

FUNCTION TO BE PERFORMED--

Sub CopyFromNotePad()


'Copy .txt file into Excel


Dim wbI As Workbook, wbO As Workbook

Dim wsI As Worksheet


Set wbI = Workbooks.Open("INSERT EXCEL FILE PATH")

Set wsI = wbI.Sheets("Sheet2")


Set wbO = Workbooks.Open("INSERT.TXT FILE PATH")


wbO.Sheets(1).Cells.Copy wsI.Cells


wbO.Close SaveChanges:=False


Columns("A:A").Select

Selection.TexttoColumns Destination:=Range("A1"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _

TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, Tab:=True, _

Other:=True, OtherChar _

:="|", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 1), Array(3, 1), Array(4, 1), Array(5, _

1), Array(6, 1), Array(7, 1), Array(8, 1), Array(9, 1), Array(10, 1), Array(11, 1), Array(12 _

, 1), Array(13, 1), Array(14, 1), Array(15, 1), Array(16, 1), Array(17, 1), Array(18, 1)), _

TrailingMinusNumbers:=True

Cells.Select

Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit

Range("A1").Select


End Sub
