Exporting & Importing with macros

[CAUÃ]

It's possible to write a macro that copy a value that is locate always
in the same position but in different files, this files follow a
nomeclature with logic. And after that paste it in other file.

Example:
In "file1.xls" I want to copy the value in cell "B6" and copy in the
file "all.xls" in cell "B1"
In "file2.xls" I want to copy the value in cell "B6" and copy in the
file "all.xls" in cell "B2"
In "file3.xls"...
And then towards...
Thanks

Option Explicit

Sub getdata()

Dim fn As String
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim index As Long

Const filepath As String = "H:\excel\test\"

fn = Dir(filepath & "*.xls")

Do Until fn = ""
index = Mid(fn, 5, Len(fn) - 8)

Set wb = Workbooks.Open(filepath & fn)
ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Cells(index, "B") =
wb.ActiveSheet.Range("B6").Value
wb.Close False
fn = Dir()
Loop


End Sub

my files were BOOK1.xls, BOOK2.xls and so on
so the index started at the 5th character and the number of characters was
the len() of the file name less 8 characters (BOOK + .XLS)

yours will be the same if th efiles all start with the word 'file'
