using the "ActiveWorkbook.Name" Visual Basic function in Excel you can get your file name, you sould be able to extract the date from the text.

I live in Holland and am using a program so I get my data with 15 min delay, but that's not the problem. This program (OASE) writes the data to a textfile. For conversion a bought a conversion program, but that doesn't work at all. I have complaint about this, but they didn't respond to it. I am trying to get my data another way, because I am going nowhere with this. But now comes my real question ;-)
In order to use the data in MS I want to convert that data through Excel (97) in the proper ASCII layout, so I can import it via The Downloader. But for that I need to have the date included. The filename of the TXT-files is xxxYMMDD.txt and I want to use that for (automaticly) inserting in the Excel sheet. I can then save the sheet as an ASCII file and convert it in The Downloader. Does anyone know how to create a macro that that can do it for me (manually is waaayyyy to much work). The data in the files are divided by semicolumns and have the following format: Tickersymbol;Open;High;Low;Close;Volume. Any help would be VERY appriciated.
