I have found this code that allows the user to select multiple xls files from a single folder and import them to individual sheets of a workbook. This code works perfect, except I need it to import the files into the Workbook that contains this macro. The way it works now is it opens a new workbook and then imports the xls files into the new workbook. Can this be modified so that the files will be imported to the sheets of the active workbook?
The reason is that I want to import into the active workbook is because I'm using a "template" that has an exsisting sheet in it.
Sub CombineTextFiles()
Dim FilesToOpen
Dim x As Integer
Dim wkbAll As Workbook
Dim wkbTemp As Workbook
Dim sDelimiter As String

MultiSelect:=True, Title:="Text Files to Open")
If TypeName(FilesToOpen) = "Boolean" Then
MsgBox "No Files were selected"
GoTo ExitHandler
End If
x = 1
