Hey everyone,

I would like to make a macro that searches every folder within a folder that has a folder with the current weeknumber in it (let me explain).

- I currently have a folder with the names of each of my colleagues as seperate folders and 1 folder that is titled "archive".

- Every colleagues folder has folders in it with the week numbers. For example my folder had 3 folders called: "week 6" "week 7" "week 8", but more will be added down the line

- I want to extract information from all excel files that are in the current week number for every colleague (week 7 in the example). The folder "archive" should be excluded and new colleague will be added down the line.
I want to do this for every colleague at the same time

Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks a lot in advance and if my explanation wasnt clear I can always answer questions.
