I'm trying to loop through files in a folder and I'd like to allow the user to select the folder that they would like to loop through. What am I doing wrong here:

Code:
Sub GetSummaryData()

Dim wb As Workbook, ws As Worksheet
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
SelectFolder = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker).Show
Set fldr = fso.GetFolder("SelectFolder")
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
I'm not sure about your syntax. You may simply need to remove the quote marks around SelectFolder in the GetFolder argument. Alternatively, I think this will get you where you want to go:
Code:
Sub GetSummaryData()
Dim wb As Workbook, ws As Worksheet
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
    .Show
    Set Fldr = fso.GetFolder(.SelectedItems(1))
End With
