Pull data from a defined list of files and summarise on a single sheet

Hello,

I have a workbook which has a named ranged which contains the full path to a number of Excel workbooks. I'm trying to put a macro together that can pull data (either by opening in each of the files in the background, copying and pasting and then closing the file OR using the OLEBD or ADO) from each of these external workbooks in turn, however I'm failing miserably.

There are three named ranges in each of the target workbooks that I would like to bring back to the master workbook (which contains the links).

Source data is in a dynamically sized named range starting in cell C8 on a worksheet called Links. The contents of each cell is the full path and name of an Excel workbook.

Target for the data is the same work book on a sheet called Summaries. I'd like to have the first named range (SiteName) in A1, the second (SiteType) in A2 and the third, which is a fixed size table / range (8 rows by 7 columns) into the A3. I'd then like to leave a space before repeating with the data from the other sheets.

Can anyone please help?

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
