Excel Facts

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
Hi i am not expert in Coding but Try with the below code

Conditions:
Cell "A2" should contain Source Path and Cell "B2" should contain Destination Path and Column C should contain File Names
and by your question i understood that you need to copy only .emd files so only i have hard-coded that

Code:
Option Explicit


Sub MoveFiles()
    Dim FSO As Object
    Dim SourceFileName, SourceFileName1 As String, DestinFileName, DestinFileName1, Filename As String
    Dim lr, x As Long
    
    Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.Filesystemobject")
    SourceFileName1 = Range("A2").Value
    DestinFileName1 = Range("B2").Value
    lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
    
    For x = 2 To lr
        Filename = Range("C" & x).Value
        SourceFileName = SourceFileName1 & "\" & Filename & ".emd"
        DestinFileName = DestinFileName1 & "\" & Filename & ".emd"
        If Not FSO.FileExists(SourceFileName) Then
            MsgBox ("File Not Found in " & SourceFileName)
        Else
            FSO.MoveFile Source:=SourceFileName, Destination:=DestinFileName
            MsgBox (SourceFileName + " Moved to " + DestinFileName)
        End If
    Next x
    
End Sub

Hi @sprs248,

Try with the below code

Code:
Option Explicit


Sub MoveFiles()
    Dim FSO As Object
    Dim PATH, sourcefile As String, dest, DestinationFolderName, SourceFileName, Filename As String
    Dim lr, x As Long
    
    Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.Filesystemobject")
    PATH = Range("D2").Value
    lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
    
    If PATH <> "" Then
        For x = 2 To lr
            SourceFileName = Range("A" & x).Value
            DestinationFolderName = Range("B" & x).Value
            sourcefile = PATH & "\" & SourceFileName & ".emd"
            dest = PATH & "\" & DestinationFolderName & "\" & SourceFileName & ".emd"
            If Not FSO.FileExists(sourcefile) Then
                MsgBox ("File Not Found in " & sourcefile)
            Else
                FSO.MoveFile source:=sourcefile, Destination:=dest
                MsgBox (sourcefile + " Moved to " + dest)
            End If
        Next x
    Else
        MsgBox ("Please Insert PATH in cell 'D2'")
        Exit Sub
    End If
End Sub
