Microsoft Office Excel Macro

Combine Multiple Workbooks into One

Bookmark and Share
This macro for Microsoft Excel allows you to combine multiple workbooks and worksheets into one new workbook and worksheet. When the macro runs, it prompts you to select which excel files from your computer you would like to combine and, once you select them and press ok, this macro will pull data from pre-specified worksheets in the selected workbooks and then combine the data onto one worksheet within a new excel workbook. This works quickly and easily and does not require the hard-coding of file names into the macro.

Note: This macro goes into a Module. Also, you will need to change some cell references and worksheet references if you want the macro to work for your specific needs.

Change the number in this line of code With mybook.Worksheets(1) to choose which worksheet you want data to be copied from in the workbook. 1 means the first sheet and 2 the second sheet etc.

Change the cell references in this line of code Set sourceRange = .Range("A1:A25") to the cells you want to be copied from the old worksheet onto the new worksheet.

Change the column reference in this line of code Set destrange = BaseWks.Range("A" & rnum) which is now "A" to whatever column you would like the cells to be imported.

Change this line of code to point to a specific directory where you want the macro to point by default ChDirNet "C:\".
