Cheers, Weak Sea. I was under the impression though that one of the main things I want to do (open a whole load of spreadsheets from outside excel and do counts of stuff within them then export said data to another spreadsheet) couldn't be done within excel, but had to be done externally, as I'd have to run a macro individually on each spreadsheet? Or can I write a macro that'll do all that for me? Thinking about it, I guess I could - the Open command's within Excel after all...
