I'm wondering if there is an easy Visual Basic program that can do this:

I have multiple spreadsheets (any where from 1 to 300 on any given day). For each of these spreadsheets I need to run the same Macro and then save the result in a specific folder. Is there a way to do this in a batch where I can do this for all spreadsheets at once?

1. Spreadsheet1.xls
2. Run Macro1
3. Save Spreadsheet1.xls in X filepath

1. Spreadsheet2.xls
2. Run Macro1
3. Save Spreadsheet2.xls in X Filepath

So on and so forth.

I'm not sure if this will play a part but Macro1 links to several other macros. The last line of Macro1 states "Application.Run "xxx".
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
It's possible but you need to provide more information. Where is your batch of multiple workbooks (Excel files) located? How will you know which ones you need to process?

It is also important to know how Macro1 is written to ensure it's compatible with ActiveWorkbook. Please post all of the code for Macro1 here, and use code tags:

End Sub

In response to where the workbooks will be it will be all in the same folder on my desktop. I'll put the raw files in the folder and then run the batch from that folder and then save them in a separate folder.
