Excel's Help explains this quite well. (Enter consolidate, you will find
several help articles to help you along.

The other thing you can do is go to you 'totalling' sheet and enter an = in
the top left cell and if you simply want to add them enter SUM and a bracket
(.

Now click on your first sheet in the same cell as your 'totalling sheet',
say A2. and, with the shift key held down, click on your last sheet in the
same cell.. You will end up with a formula like. (Don't forget to close the
bracket)

=SUM(Sheet1Sheet10!A2)

This is effectively what consolidate does. You can use just about any
function, SUM, COUNT, AVERAGE, etc.

Thanks Nick. However, the big operator in my question is "newbie".
DataConsolidate seems likely, of course, but nothing that comes up after
making that selection makes sense.

I'm not an MVP, jsut a newbie. Which function, what source, etc. . .?

Anybody out there willing to be a bit more explicit and thorough?

Sorry for the newbie question, but. . .I have data in a workbook on 10
worksheets. All are formatted identically, and I would like to combine
the
10 worksheets into a master worksheet--number 11. How can I do this
without
having to go in and cut and paste?

thanks for your help.
