creating regional summary data
I have a series of spreadsheets with state data. These need to be
aggregated into 4 regional sheets. I'm new to excel and not sure how to proceed. In a programming language I would simply have a list and sum the regional data. It seems this should be possible in excel. I would need to identify which spreadsheets (ie states) are in each region and have it consolidate these regions. Each state is contained in a workbook. Is consolidation the way to go? Consolidating each of about 25 workbooks into the regional information. Is there a way to have an array of state names and simply have excel loop through them, or do I need to hard code this. Thanks from someone new to excel. Tom |

How to proceed depends a lot on what the source workbooks look like. Here is
an excelent link on consolidating multiple wo0rkbboks into a single workbook. http://www.rondebruin.nl/tips.htm Most likely you want the section on Copy/Paste/Merge examples... -- HTH...
