Hi,
the macro I wrote saves several files to a particular folder, but this folder should be empty before the new files are saved to it. So basically the macro should always delete the contents of that folder before it saves the new files.

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Max,

You can use following snippet code whic delete all files in a folder:

Kill "c:Dennis*.*"

Use it with care :)
