Default Combining Excel Files

Make sure that every row contains a header for the information that you want
in the combined row and start cutting and pasting. Not a job for the faint of
heart. Always cut and paste or it will screw up your formulas.

Or you could set it up for a down and dirty database, link everything into
Access and then export a single new file. Hopefully it will export the
correct formulas, unlinked to the other sheets.

Another way would be to save blank spreadsheets to the server in a hidden
location and make sheet1A1 equal to old workbook 1.xls and drag the corner
forever, do the same with sheet 2 and three.

Just depends on what your trying to accomplish.


God Bless

My supervisor wants me to combine many Excel files into one Excel file. These
files have different column headings. How do I combine these files into one
file?

Please help. I have a seriously tight deadline and haven't a clue how to
perform this task. Thank you for your consideration.
