Hey guys, not sure if anyone can help me with this or not. I have been trying to make an excel macro that when run will look at all files in the folder that it resides in and copy a specific range within every spreadsheet in the folder to certain regions in worksheet. Basically I have a master workbook that compiles a bunch of data that is located in the same region of every spreadsheet placed in the folder. I can figure out the logistics of placing the given data, but I cannot for the life of me get the macro to even open each individual file within the folder. this is what I have come up with so far as a test to see if the macro will even open any of the files within the folder, but it does not seem to work.

Sub ultimatemacro()
Dim i As Integer, wb As Workbook
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.LookIn = ActiveWorkbook.path
.SearchSubFolders = False
.Filename = "*.xls"
.Execute
For i = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
'Open each workbook
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=.FoundFiles(i))
'Perform the operation on the open workbook
wb.Sheets(1).Range("A1").Select
Range("A1") = "hi!"
'Save and close the workbook
wb.Save
wb.Close
'On to the next workbook
Next i
End With
End Sub

Any help would be appreciated!
