Set WS = Sheets.Add
sPath = ActiveWorkbook.Path & "\"
'Value = Dir(sPath, &H1F)'exctract all kind of files, pdf,text,word
Value = Dir(sPath & "*.xls*", &H1F) 'exctract only excel file
WS.Range("A1") = "Filename"
Set StartCell = WS.Range("A2")
Do Until Value = ""
If Value = "." Or Value = ".." Then
Else
If GetAttr(sPath & Value) = 16 Then
Else
If Value <> ActiveWorkbook.Name And Value <> "~$" & ActiveWorkbook.Name Then
StartCell.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=StartCell, Address:= _
Value, TextToDisplay:=Value
Set StartCell = StartCell.Offset(1, 0)
End If
End If
End If
Value = Dir
Loop
End Sub

try this.
VBA Code:
Sub InsertFilesInFolder()
Dim sPath As String, value As String
Dim WS As Worksheet
Set WS = Sheets.Add
    With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
       .Show
        If .SelectedItems.Count > 0 Then
            sPath = .SelectedItems(1) & "\"
        Else
            Exit Sub
        End If
    End With
value = Dir(sPath & "*.xls*", &H1F) 'exctract only excel file
WS.Range("A1") = "Filename"
Set StartCell = WS.Range("A2")
Do Until value = ""
If value = "." Or value = ".." Then
Else
If GetAttr(sPath & value) = 16 Then
Else
If value <> ActiveWorkbook.Name And value <> "~$" & ActiveWorkbook.Name Then
StartCell.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=StartCell, Address:= _
