Hi Soly_90,

Can I recommend that you read the 'What is multiposting' of the below link:
http://www.vbaexpress.com/forum/faq.php?faq=new_faq_item#faq_new_faq_item3

It is a rule of most (if not all) Excel forums that if you post the same question on more than one forum, you should post a link to the other forums. The below link will explain why you should do this in more detail:

Advise you zip files with Windows Compression and attach to post.

Maybe this could work



Sub MergeCSVs()
Dim FilePath1 As String
Dim FilePath2 As String
Dim DestSheet As Worksheet
Dim FSO As Object
' FileSystemObject
Dim TextStream1 As Object
' TextStream for first file
Dim TextStream2 As Object
' TextStream for second file
Dim DataArray1 As Variant
Dim DataArray2 As Variant
Dim RowCounter As Long
Dim ColCounter As Long
Dim OutputRow As Long
' Get the file paths from the user

If FilePath1 = False Then Exit Sub

Set DestSheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets.Add(After:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(ThisWorkbook.Sheets.Coun t))
DestSheet.Name = "MergedData"

' Create FileSystemObject

' Process the first CSV file (semicolon delimited)
On Error Resume Next
' In case the file doesn't exist
Set TextStream1 = FSO.OpenTextFile(FilePath1, 1)

On Error GoTo 0
If Not TextStream1 Is Nothing Then
Do Until TextStream1.AtEndOfStream

For ColCounter = LBound(DataArray1) To UBound(DataArray1)
DestSheet.Cells(OutputRow, ColCounter + 1).Value = Trim(DataArray1(ColCounter))

' Clean up the FileSystemObject
Set TextStream1 = Nothing
Set TextStream2 = Nothing
Set FSO = Nothing
MsgBox "CSV files merged successfully into sheet '" & DestSheet.Name & "'.", vbInformation
End Sub

Assuming both csv files and the workbook are in the same folder.
Both csv files have header in the 1st row, should have nothing above the header.


Sub test()
Dim myDir$, s$, cn As Object, rs As Object, i&
[a1].CurrentRegion.ClearContents
myDir = ThisWorkbook.Path
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
With cn
.Provider = "Microsoft.Ace.OLEDB.12.0"
.Properties("Extended Properties") = "Text;HDR=Yes;"
.Open myDir
End With
Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
s = "Select A.Index, B.type, B.result As art, Null As `part`, Null As `full`, " & _
"Null As `end/type`, A.x, A.y, A.z From [Data.csv] A Left Join " & _
"[source.csv] B On A.target = B.target Where A.Index Is Not Null;"
rs.Open s, cn
With [a1]
For i = 0 To rs.Fields.Count - 1
.Offset(, i) = rs.Fields(i).Name
Next
.Cells(2, 1).CopyFromRecordset rs
.CurrentRegion.Offset(1).Columns("c").TextToColumns [c2], 1, Semicolon:=True
Columns("g:i").Replace ",", ".", 2
End With
Set rs = Nothing: Set cn = Nothing
End Sub
