Is there a way to pass file paths from an excel worksheet into a VBA programme from a different application?

Hi folks,

I have an application that is coded in VBA, and an excel worksheet that has (as text strings) the file paths of various files on which I want the application to operate.

Is there a way for me to allow the application to read this information?

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.

It is possible for VBA to open and read data from files, so yes there is likely a way.
