Hi, I need a function/Macro that allows me to import data from files with a specific file name.

More background:
I am downloading a large amount of excel files from an webpage containing Agricultural data for different countries (all files have the same structure in terms of rows and columns). This is done with an Python code that names the files according to a standard of: Country + Crop + Irrigation level + Management level. For instance: GhanaMaizeIrrigationLow.

I have created a excel with drop down menus to select each of these parameters and through the TEXTJOIN function merges it in accordance with the naming of the files.I now need some function/Macro that will import data from specific cells in the file that has the corresponding name. Is there a not too complicated way of doing this?

Thank you so much in advance!
