Default Copy and paste in VBA

Look in the Data menu as the consolidation function.

Is there a way to copy and paste data from one file to
another WITHOUT opening the source data file?

In addition, is it possible to do this from multiple files.

I am trying to design a financial consolidation tool to
add up the same worksheet from multiple versions of the
same file.

Default Copy and paste in VBA

I have about 20 files with about 9 columns and 400 rows of
data - this function will take ages to set up...is there
any other way?

I was thinking of trying to write some code that will
paste - special - values the entire sheet from each
workbook (without opening it) into the Consolidation file
and then running a sum through each of the pasted
worksheets. Am just struggling with the code to get the
sheets into the Consolidation file...any ideas?
