Hello, I need code to loop thru all subdirectories open each workbook in the subdirectory that contains as part of the file name "_Sales Order.xls" and open each "_Sales Order.xls" and update worksheet "Sales Order Form" the following values:
C44 new value = "00-440"
D44 new value = " a few words"
H44 new value = "00-440"

Any help is very much appreciated! Directory structure looks like
N:\\Customers\ABC\January_Sales Order.xls
Thank you so much.
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Try...

Code:
Option Explicit

Sub test()

    Dim objFSO As Object
    Dim objFolder As Object
    Dim objSubFolder As Object
    Dim objFile As Object
    Dim MyPath As String
    Dim wkbOpen As Workbook
    Dim Cnt As Long
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    
    MyPath = "N:\\Customers"
    
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    
    Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(MyPath)
    
    For Each objSubFolder In objFolder.SubFolders
        For Each objFile In objSubFolder.Files
            If LCase(objFile.Name) Like "*_sales order.xls" Then
                Set wkbOpen = Workbooks.Open(objFile)
                With wkbOpen.Worksheets("Sales Order Form")
                    .Range("C44").Value = "00-440"
                    .Range("D44").Value = "a few words"
                    .Range("H44").Value = "00-440"
                End With
                wkbOpen.Close savechanges:=True
                Cnt = Cnt + 1
            End If
        Next objFile
    Next objSubFolder
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    
    If Cnt = 0 Then
        MsgBox "No '_sales order.xls' files found...", vbInformation
    Else
        MsgBox "Completed...", vbInformation
    End If
    
End Sub
