I would like to copy every file named "data.xls" from every subfolder found in the folder c:\test\ and want to save in "dest" folder with file name "data_1.xls","data_2.xls"....so on so. Each sub folder is named as 01022013,02022013,03022013.....and all are contain the file "data.xls"
 
Code:
Sub a()
   Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
   oldpath = "c:\test\"
   newpath = "c:\dest\"
   Set mainFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(oldpath)
   For Each mySubFolder In mainFolder.subfolders
     Name = "data.xls"
     p=instrrev(mySubFolder,"\")
     Name1 = "data_" & right(mySubFolder, len(mySubFolder)-p) & ".xls"

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Code:
Name C:\Test\File.xls As C:\Test\File_1.xls

FileCopy C:\Test\Data.xls, C:\Done\Data.xls
