    How to loop through an entire directory or folder using VBA & Macros for Excel.
    This allows you to go through every file in a directory and to do something with it, including open it, check it, delete it, update it, or whatever else you need to do with it.
    I also show you how to limit the files that you go though:
    - Limit file types that you loop through.
    - Limit file names that you loop through.
    - Use wildcard characters to go through files with certain names and types.
    This tutorial serves as the basis for many more complex things that I show you how to do in my full vba course - check the link for it at the top of this description.
    Make sure to download the file for this tutorial to get all of the code for it! [Link Above]

    Thanks, this was exactly what I needed to know. The "Dir" function was completely new to me. I watched this video and was able to build my code with no problems at all. Thanks again.

    Great tutorial, brilliantly explained going step by step through. This part of the code is something I was looking for to append workbooks (containing one sheets each) on top of each other something similar to power query. Thank you for the video. 👍🍀

    @TeachExcel - we had a macro that was working perfectly. Then updated to Windows 11 and it didn't even open. We did the unblocking etc., and now it will only read one file inside the folder where all them are. What could be wrong with it?

    @TeachExcel - I had a macros that was working perfectly, then updated to Windows 11 and it all went crazy. After I was finally able to unblock the security issues, it started to work but it's only capturing the data in one file inside the directory/folder where it's supposed to pull all the data from (there are 9 total files there). What could the problem be?

    Very good explanation, thank you very much.
    I offen use FileSystemObject method instead of Dir one because it provides more flexiblity for me. Also, when I use FSO, I can learn more things for example windows file directory info like hard disc size, name or file paths including extentions, modification dates, establishing dates etc.
    Can you make an handy video about File System Object usage?

    Like the videos. How about looping through another workbook to find a value. Kind of like a vlookup or xlookup with a press of a button.
