I have 30 files, each in a different folder on a network drive. I need to be able to copy the top 100 rows from the first sheet of each file and paste them into a single sheet in a master file on a monthly basis. (If that is not possible, I guess I could copy them to separate sheets and link all of the sheets to a "master" sheet in my master workbook.)

There are other Excel files in these directories, but the files I need to copy this range from share the word "Source" in the workbook name.The sheet name of the first sheet in every file is "CASH".

The copy and paste from the first file would fill rows 1 - 100 on the master sheet. The data from the second file would paste on rows 101 - 200 in the master sheet, and so forth. After all the data has been copied and pasted the file would automatically save. Some directory examples:

S:\Accounting\Film\WOLB\WOLB Source File.xls

S:\Accounting\Film\WITX\WITX Source File.xls

S:\Accounting\Film\WBBB\WBBB Source File.xls

If you can help me I would REALLY appreciate it. I've been unable to find a solution to this anywhere.

Thanks!

Without testing the idea is to have a looping macro
for each f in range("mylistoffilenames"
fileopen
sheets(1).rows("1:100").copy _ destinationfile.cells(rows.count,1).end(xlup)(2)
filecloce
next f

Thank you, Bruno. I will try this when I return to work Thursday.

Bruno, my apologies for taking so long to try your code. If you do not wish to pursue this after all this time has passed, I understand.

The code on the second line "Dim FS As New FileSystemObject"
is giving me a "user defined type not defined" error:

These two lines under "CheckFileName" are showing in red when I paste the code:

Set SourceRange =

and

TargetRange(n + NumRow * (h - 1), m) = SourceRange(n,
m)

The code on the second line "Dim FS As New FileSystemObject"

You need the reference:

These two lines under "CheckFileName" are showing in red when I paste
the code:

Set SourceRange = SourceFile.Worksheets("CASH").Range("A1:H100")
To be written all in one line!

TargetRange(n + NumRow * (h - 1), m) = SourceRange(n, m)
To be written all in one line!

Thank you for your help, Bruno. I made the changes you suggested and now the code runs until it gets to this line in the CheckFileName section:

SourceFile.Worksheets("CASH").Range ("A1:H100")

It gives the error: "Object doesn't support this property or method"
