how do i open ALL the excel files one by one and run a macro

I need to write a macro in VBA that will open every file in a given directory one by one and run a macro on them.

so far i have something like

for i = 1 to number_of_files
    open Dir("C:\yourPath\*.*", vbNormal)开发者_开发问答
    call some_macro
    close file
next i

By calling the Dir() function with an appropriate filter, such as "c:\folder\*.xls", you start enumeration and get the first file name.
After that, repeatedly calling the Dir() function without any parameters, you will get all *.xls file names, one for each call.

You open a workbook by calling Workbooks.Open(full_path). This gives you a Workbook object, against which you can run a macro.

The .Close() method of this Workbook object closes the workbook. You can use .Close(SaveChanges:=True) to save changes, .Close(SaveChanges:=False) to discard changes, or omit the parameter to have the user decide.

Here's the easy VBA object way to do it:

Dim fs As FileSearch
Dim i As Integer
Dim wbk As Workbook

Set fs = Application.FileSearch

With fs
    .LookIn = ThisWorkbook.Path
    .FileName = "*.xls"
    For i = 1 to .Execute()
        Set wbk = Workbooks.Open(.FoundFiles(i))
        ''//RUN MACRO HERE
        wbk.Close(SaveChanges:=True)
    Next i
End With
