Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
something like this:
Code:
....
    Dim objFolder As Object 
    Set objFolder = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").getfolder(strDirectory) '[I]strDirectory - this argument you get from your folder picker dialog[/I]
    Dim objFile As Object
    Dim wbk As Workbook


    For Each objFile In objFolder.Files
        Set wbk = Workbooks.Open(objFile.Path)
 [I]   ............. do whatever you need to do ....................
[/I]        wbk.close
    Next objFile
...
set objFile=Nothing
set objFolder=Nothing
set wbk=nothing
