directories and file in text format, then open it in excel.

Take a look at Application.getopenfilename() in VBA's help.

Here's how I do it when I want a toolbar:

====
Heck, try putting this into a general module:

Option Explicit
Public Const ToolBarName As String = "ImportGrantTB"
Sub auto_open()
Call create_menubar
End Sub
Sub auto_close()
Call remove_menubar
End Sub
Sub remove_menubar()
On Error Resume Next
Application.CommandBars(ToolBarName).Delete
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
Sub create_menubar()

Dim i As Long

Dim mac_names As Variant
Dim cap_names As Variant
Dim tip_text As Variant

Call remove_menubar

mac_names = Array("ImportGrant")

cap_names = Array("Import Grant Text File")

tip_text = Array("Click this to import the text file")

With Application.CommandBars.Add
.Name = ToolBarName
.Left = 200
.Top = 200
.Protection = msoBarNoProtection
.Visible = True
.Position = msoBarFloating

For i = LBound(mac_names) To UBound(mac_names)
With .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
.OnAction = ThisWorkbook.Name & "!" & mac_names(i)
.Caption = cap_names(i)
.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
.FaceId = 71 + i
.TooltipText = tip_text(i)
End With
Next i
End With
End Sub
Sub ImportGrant()

Dim myFileName As Variant
Dim wks As Worksheet

myFileName = Application.GetOpenFilename("Text Files, *.txt")

If myFileName = False Then
Exit Sub
End If

Workbooks.OpenText Filename:=myFileName, _
Origin:=437, StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlFixedWidth, _
FieldInfo:=Array(Array(0, 2), Array(3, 2), Array(43, 2), _
Array(45, 2), Array(55, 3), Array(64, 3), _
Array(73, 2), Array(84, 2), Array(91, 2), Array(98, 2))

Set wks = ActiveSheet

With wks
.Rows(1).Insert
.Range("a1").Resize(1, 10).Value _
= Array("State", "Client", "Address", "Phone#", "Start", _
"End", "PO", "Code", "GS", "Description")

.Columns.AutoFit

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
On Error Resume Next
.Parent.SaveAs Filename:="C:\AQ\Excel Add-In\Grant111405SFD.xls", _
FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox "An error occurred--workbook was not saved!"
Err.Clear
End If
On Error GoTo 0
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End With
End Sub
