Using ADO Connection to Copy Data From Multiple Workbooks Help

Hi All -

I am using an ADO connection to copy data from multiple workbooks in to a separate summary workbook. There are a total of five workbooks in a folder (source). There are four workbook (each name is different) that I want to combine the data into one sheet called 'Summary' in my destination workbook. The fifth workbook, I want to copy the data into a different sheet called 'QC' in the same destination workbook. There is an array that keeps the inventory of all the files in the source folder. I made a couple of changes in the code to copy the data to the correct sheets and it's not working properly. Hoping someone can take a quick look to see what I am doing wrong.

Code:

---

Sub GetSheetsDir()
    Dim MyPath As String
    Dim FilesInPath As String
    Dim sh As Worksheet, sh1 As Worksheet
    Dim MyFiles() As String
    Dim Fnum As Long, Fnum1 As Long
    Dim rnum As Long, rnum1 As Long
    Dim destrange As Range, destrange1 As Range
    MyPath = "C:\LindaReports"    ' <<<<  Change
    'Add a slash at the end if the user forget it
    If Right(MyPath, 1) <> "\" Then
        MyPath = MyPath & "\"
    End If
    'If there are no Excel files in the folder exit the sub
    FilesInPath = Dir(MyPath & "*.xl*")
    If FilesInPath = "" Then
        MsgBox "No files found"
        Exit Sub
    End If
    On Error GoTo CleanUp
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    'Add worksheet to the Activeworkbook and use the Date/Time as name
    Set sh = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
    sh.Name = "Summary" '& Format(Now, "mm-dd-yy")
   
    Set sh1 = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
    sh1.Name = "QC"
    'Fill the array(myFiles)with the list of Excel files in the folder
    Fnum = 0
    Do While FilesInPath <> ""
        Fnum = Fnum + 1
        ReDim Preserve MyFiles(1 To Fnum)
        MyFiles(Fnum) = FilesInPath
        FilesInPath = Dir()
    Loop
    'Loop through all files in the array(myFiles)
    If Fnum > 0 Then
        For Fnum = LBound(MyFiles) To UBound(MyFiles)
            'Find the last row with data
            rnum = LastRow(sh)
            rnum1 = LastRow(sh1)
            'create the destination cell address
            Set destrange = sh.Cells(rnum + 1, "B")
            Set destrange1 = sh1.Cells(rnum1 + 1, "A")
            ' Copy the workbook name in Column E
            sh.Cells(rnum + 1, "A").Value = Left(MyFiles(Fnum), InStrRev(MyFiles(Fnum), ".") - 1)
'            sh.Cells(rnum + 1, "A").Value = MyFiles(Fnum)
            'Get the cell values and copy it in the destrange
            'Change the Sheet name and range as you like
            GetData MyPath & MyFiles(Fnum), "Summary", "A1:J500", destrange, False, False
            GetData MyPath & MyFiles("QC"), "Sheet1", "A1:AD5000", destrange1, False, False
'            sh.Range("A" & Lastrow(sh)).Value = MyFiles(Fnum)
        Next
    End If
'Range("A:A").Replace What:=".xls*", Replacement:="", Lookat:=xlPart
CleanUp:
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Isn't the GetData routine the one we'd need to trouble-shoot this?

The more I think about, I don't think it is possible to select a specific file form a group of files to copy and paste from using ADO connection. Maybe someone can confirm.

yes you can, you use :
Select * From [Sheet1$]

Sorry, I meant with the current code I am using. The code I posted will take all the files in the directory and copy the data range from the first sheet from each file and paste that data range into another worksheet in another workbook. With the current set up, I don't think there is a way to copy the data from the first sheet from files X, Y, Z and paste and for file A copy and paste to another sheet.

OK, misunderstood.
You can still do it. You need to do a conditional check, I am throwing mud

Code:

---

select case MyFiles(Fnum)
case "fileA"
do your SQLA
do your copy to workbookA

case "fileB
do your SQLB
do your copy to workbookB
end select

Thanks for all your help. I found a simple solution. I am going to the keep one of the files in a different folder and call it from there.
