Hi All,
First off I'd like to say it's awesome joining such a knowledgeable board.
I'm doing some basic Arabic text manipulation, but before I begin I have to input all the text files in a sub-folder on my OSX desktop to a single column in Excel, one file per cell in the column (i.e. .txt1 = A1; .txt2 = A2; .txt3 = A3).
Before I started I had to convert the document encoding from UTF8, to UTF16 so Arabic characters were properly rendered (I used UTFCast Pro -awesome for these kind of batch encoding conversions).
I have essentially zero VBA knowledge. I've got a recorded macro, but I need one that will loop through the entire sub-directory and print each txt file to each cell in column A:
Any suggestions??? I'm at an impasse and would greatly, greatly appreciate any assistance. M0037 is the first file in the folder, which proceed in ascending numeric order.
Thanks so much!!!
