Default Is this possible with Excel alone?

I am looking to enhance my current quote system and make it Excel based.
What I want to do is extract the information from the quotes and summarise it
in an overall quote summary workbook. Can this be done automatically from
all quotes in a folder?

Thanks,

KeithJ

That is possible. While my prefernce for doing that kind of thing is a
database what you are asking is possible. Check out this link and look for
Merge Data from All Workbooks...

Yes, it can be done in Excel, with macros.........to facilitate, each
individual quote should be done to a master template, thereby Excel will know
where to find each answer it seeks........
