Hi,

I have lots of word documents in a file structure. They all have the same layout which consists of three text boxes on the first page. I would like to be able to copy the text from the third text box of each word document into excel along with the file name. Alternatively if it is easier it would be fine to just copy all text from the first page along with the file name (all text is in text boxes). Can this be done? Can anyone help?
