Hi Ron,

If the blank rows are within the data is it possible to skip those rows?

Hi Heliocracy

1: Yes that is possible, which macro do you use ?

If you use one from the Dir page then chnage

'Add a new workbook with one sheet
Set BaseWks = Workbooks.Add(xlWBATWorksheet).Worksheets(1)
rnum = 1

To

Set BaseWks = Worksheets("Yoursheet")
rnum = 2


2: Are the blank rows in the data or below the data ?

I'm using your macros as well, but each of the files I'm trying to combine
will have many blank rows on them...is there a way to modify your macros so
that:

1. The combined data can be placed on a worksheet of my choosing, that
already exists, starting on Row 2?
2. Blank rows are ignored when combining, so they don't end up in the
combined worksheet?

Great code BTW, and thanks in advance for your help!

Hello-

I have used this code (trying to do my homework first!) and changed the
path- it looks as though when it runs it opens all of the files and closes
them but does not copy any data into the book1 file that I have opened - what
am I doing wrong here?

Landa,

Assumptions a data starts in cell A1, the table is contiguous, is on the first sheet of the
workbook, and all 100 files are in one folder. Also, the total in all files is less than 65536 rows
of data.

Copy the macro below into a codemodule of a new workbook, change the path where indicated, and run
it. When it is done, save the workbook.

Let say there is 3 excel files. Each file has one sheet and the same columns,
e.g. column A: product name
column B: description
Column C: Price

How can I combine all the 3 sheets in different files into one sheet of a
new file?
I don't want to copy and paste, because in reality, I have more than 100
files like this.

Thank you!
