What I'm doing is looping through all excel files in a folder and then
copying the list in sheet 1 in each file onto a "consolidate" worksheet
Below is my code to date, I'm missing something somewhere, any help would be
great:


Sub SubGetMyData()


Dim objFSO As Scripting.FileSystemObject
Dim objFolder As Scripting.Folder
Dim objSubfolder As Scripting.Folder
Dim objFile As Scripting.File
Dim iRow As Long


iRow = 3
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("c:\My Documents\Career\")
For Each objFile In objFolder.Files
If objFile.Type = "Microsoft Excel Worksheet" Then

Workbooks.Open Filename:=objFolder.Path & "\" & objFile.Name
j = 1
For Each Workbook In Workbooks
Workbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 2).EntireRow.Copy Destination =
Worksheets("consolidate").Cells(j, 1)
ActiveWorkbook.Close savechanges:=True
iRow = iRow + 1
End If
Next
Next
End Sub

Teresa,

Does this work any better?

I was not sure where i and j came from so I have made some assumptions

Sub SubGetMyData()
Dim objFSO As Object
Dim objFolder As Object
Dim objFile As Object
Dim owb As Workbook
Dim j As Long

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("c:\MyTest\")
j = 1
For Each objFile In objFolder.Files
If objFile.Type = "Microsoft Excel Worksheet" Then

Set owb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=objFolder.Path & "\" &
objFile.Name)
owb.orksheets("Sheet1").Cells(1, 2).EntireRow.Copy
Destination:=Worksheets("consolidate").Cells(j, 1)
j = Worksheets("consolidate").Cells(Rows.Count,
"A").End(xlUp).Row + 1
ActiveWorkbook.Close savechanges:=True
End If
Next
End Sub

Teresa,

This should get you a little closer...
