How can i import up to 100 files into the same spreadsheet from:

Filename1.txt

Freq [Hz] dBSPL Phase [Deg]
20.00 116.25 -101.80
20.56 115.78 -73.43
21.13 115.11 -46.75
21.71 113.43 -10.13
22.32 111.14 11.57
22.94 107.99 12.61
23.58 104.44 -0.59
24.23 103.51 -17.97

Filename2.txt

Freq [Hz] dBSPL Phase [Deg]
20.00 114.85 -87.46
20.56 114.33 -114.88
21.13 113.59 -138.83

23.58 103.27 138.49
24.23 102.07 127.61

ETC...

when done the final spreadsheet looks like this.

If you want each txt file in another column Try this example
Change the folder in this code line in the macro

'Fill in the path\folder where the files are
MyPath = "C:\Users\Ron\test"

This example copy 2000 cells


Sub Example()
Dim MyPath As String, FilesInPath As String
Dim MyFiles() As String
Dim SourceCcount As Long, Fnum As Long
Dim mybook As Workbook, BaseWks As Worksheet
Dim sourceRange As Range, destrange As Range
Dim Cnum As Long, CalcMode As Long

'Fill in the path\folder where the files are
MyPath = "C:\Users\Ron\test"

'Add a slash at the end if the user forget it
If Right(MyPath, 1) < "\" Then
MyPath = MyPath & "\"
End If

'If there are no txt files in the folder exit the sub
FilesInPath = Dir(MyPath & "*.txt")
If FilesInPath = "" Then
MsgBox "No files found"
Exit Sub
End If

'Fill the array(myFiles)with the list of txt files in the folder
Fnum = 0
Do While FilesInPath < ""
Fnum = Fnum + 1
ReDim Preserve MyFiles(1 To Fnum)
MyFiles(Fnum) = FilesInPath
FilesInPath = Dir()
Loop

'Change ScreenUpdating, Calculation and EnableEvents
With Application
CalcMode = .Calculation
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False
End With

'Add a new workbook with one sheet
Set BaseWks = Workbooks.Add(xlWBATWorksheet).Worksheets(1)
Cnum = 1

'Loop through all files in the array(myFiles)
If Fnum 0 Then
For Fnum = LBound(MyFiles) To UBound(MyFiles)
Set mybook = Nothing
On Error Resume Next

:=1, DataType:=xlDelimited, TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, _
ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=False, Semicolon:=False, Comma:=True, _
Space:=False, Other:=False


Set mybook = ActiveWorkbook
On Error GoTo 0

If Not mybook Is Nothing Then

On Error Resume Next
Set sourceRange = mybook.Worksheets(1).Range("A1:A2000")

If Err.Number 0 Then
Err.Clear
Set sourceRange = Nothing
Else

If sourceRange.Rows.Count = BaseWks.Rows.Count Then
Set sourceRange = Nothing
End If
End If
On Error GoTo 0

If Not sourceRange Is Nothing Then

The code will read every text file (*.txt) in the Folder = "C:\temp\test2\"
(change folder as required). The code creates two worksheets Input, and
Summary. The code uses a Query to input the data t the worksheet Input.
then moves the data to the summary worksheet. then clears the input sheet
and repeats the process until all the files are read.

Then the code performs a sort on the frequency incase not all frequencies
are in each of the files. If you run the code more than once you have to
delete the Input and Summary worksheet or remove the code that adds these two
worksheets. Otherwise you get an error because you can't create two
worksheets with the same name.

This was perfect!! I cutpasted your suggestion directy into a macro and it
worked the 1st time. You saved me hours & I can't thank you enough!
