Hi All,

I have c. 200 spreadsheets in a folder, I need to quickly copy sheet 1 of each of these and paste them into one workbook. I would also like to name each sheet in the new workbook as the last 9 characters of the original filename.

Can anyway help with an easy way to do this.

Thanks,

Marshybid

Sub LoopFiles()
Dim FSO As Object
Dim Folder As Object
Dim file As Object
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim wbNew As Workbook

Set wbNew = Workbooks.Add
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set Folder = FSO.GetFolder("c:\Test")

For Each file In Folder.Files

If file.Type Like "Microsoft*Excel*Worksheet*" Then

Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=file.Path)
wb.Worksheets(1).Copy after:=wbNew.Worksheets(wbNew.Worksheets.Count)
wbNew.Worksheets(wbNew.Worksheets.Count).Name = Left$(wb.Name, 9)
wb.Close savechanges:=False
End If
Next file

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
wbNew.Worksheets(3).Delete
wbNew.Worksheets(2).Delete
wbNew.Worksheets(1).Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True

Set wb = Nothing
Set wbNew = Nothing
Set file = Nothing
Set Folder = Nothing
Set FSO = Nothing

End Sub
