Merging Worksheets in Excel
 

I can merge the worksheets with no problem, but on the worksheet I'm
updating from the others, there's a column at the end that gets
overwritten every time and I want it to remain static. Any ideas?
Here's the code I'm using for the merge which was gratefully clipped
from http://www.rondebruin.nl/copy2.htm

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim DestSh As Worksheet
Dim Last As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set DestSh = Worksheets("Merged")
Worksheets("Merged").UsedRange.Offset(4,0).ClearCo ntents
For Each sh In Sheets(Array("Sheet2", "Sheet3"))
LastR = LastRow(DestSh)
sh.UsedRange.Offset(4, 0).Copy DestSh.Cells(LastR + 1, 1)
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Function LastRow(sh As Worksheet)
On Error Resume Next
LastRow = sh.Cells.Find(What:="*", _
After:=sh.Range("A1"), _
Lookat:=xlPart, _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
MatchCase:=False).Row
On Error GoTo 0
End Function

Function LastCol(sh As Worksheet)
On Error Resume Next
LastCol = sh.Cells.Find(What:="*", _
After:=sh.Range("A1"), _
Lookat:=xlPart, _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
MatchCase:=False).Column
On Error GoTo 0
End Function

Merging Worksheets in Excel
 

is the column in the sheet before any copying? If so, you woulr clear it
with

Worksheets("Merged").UsedRange.Offset(4,0).ClearCo ntents


You would need to use

set rng = worksheets("Merged").UsedRange.Offset(4,0)
Intersect(rng,worksheets("Merged").Columns(1).Resi ze(10)).Clearcontents

Change the 10 to reflect the number of columns you want cleared starting
from column A.
