Gather data from multiple excel files into one master excel file
One way is to open each file and MOVE the sheets there to the master file -
Right Click on the sheet to MOVE and then select the BOOK (your master file) to move it to and the location in that BOOK. If you want to add the corresponding cells from all sheets to your master then that can also be done.

Ron,
I have now completely lost myself... I have managed to fetch some data back but may be I have not explained correctly what I am looking to do: All the following files are in a folder "c:\OP Funnel" I have one master file called "Funnel OP Master.xls" I have six additional files called "Funnel OP 1.xls, 2.xls, 3.xls, 4.xls, 5.xls, 6.xls" I need to merge the data from "A36:E36" through to "A300:E300" if there is data there from the above six files I need to merge all this data in the file "Funnel OP Master.xls" into the range "A36:E36" through to "A10000:E10000". I am really not sure how to do this looking at your formulas in Visual basic.. I would very much appreciate your help on this subject Regards Mark "Ron de Bruin" wrote: Hi Mark See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc837974.aspx Or check out my website -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl/tips.htm "Mark Allen" wrote in message ...
