Here is what I would like to be able to do;
Using excel I want to be able to import certain data fields, from certain text files, inside a certain folder, into certain cells on an ongoing updated spreadsheet, adding rows as I go. There maybe anywhere from two to 100 text files in the folder at any time. Let’s say my folder is on the desktop of “C” drive and named, “Import This Data”. My excel spreadsheet is titled “Imported Data”.
Example of my spreadsheet;

The text file name would be changing but have this in common at the end of the name, “_Summ”.
Here is an example of what the text file looks like when imported into excel;
