Merge files in one folder to a master worksheet and update

[silenthaxx]

Hello Everyone,

I need help with pulling some data and was trying to figure out a more efficient way of doing it. I currently have a folder with about 20 workbooks from different agents. They go in and update a specific worksheet weekly. I'm trying to create a master worksheet that would merge all the specific worksheet into one file. I found one code that I've been using but I wasn't sure if there is a better way. I would like for the sheet to update if there has been any changes made to the agents worksheet. The problem I'm having with this code is that I can't reuse it for updating the master worksheet without having to delete that worksheet before running the module again.

I'm not sure what I can add at the end that would allow me to maybe copy and all the date from the master to another worksheet and then delete the master sheet so I can rinse and re-use. Any help is greatly appreciated.


Currently I'm using this code I found on this site:

Sub Mergetracker()


Dim MyPath As String
Dim SourceRcount As Long, FNum As Long
Dim mybook As Workbook, BaseWks As Worksheet
Dim sourceRange As Range, destrange As Range
Dim rnum As Long, CalcMode As Long
Dim SaveDriveDir As String
Dim FName As Variant


'Change ScreenUpdating, Calculation and EnableEvents
With Application
CalcMode = .Calculation
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False
End With


' SaveDriveDir = CurDir
' ChDirNet "K:\Excel\Tracker"


FName = Application.GetOpenFilename(filefilter:="Excel Files (*.xl*), *.xl*", _
MultiSelect:=True)
If IsArray(FName) Then
'Add a new workbook with one sheet
'Set BaseWks = Workbooks.Add(xlWBATWorksheet).Worksheets(1)
Set BaseWks = Worksheets.Add
BaseWks.Name = "Master"
rnum = 2


'Loop through all files in the array(myFiles)
For FNum = LBound(FName) To UBound(FName)
Set mybook = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set mybook = Workbooks.Open(FName(FNum))
On Error GoTo 0
If Not mybook Is Nothing Then
On Error Resume Next
With mybook.Worksheets("Tracker")
.Unprotect
LC = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
Set sourceRange = .Range("A2:T" & LC)
End With
If Err.Number > 0 Then
Err.Clear
Set sourceRange = Nothing
Else
'if SourceRange use all columns then skip this file
If sourceRange.Columns.Count >= BaseWks.Columns.Count Then
Set sourceRange = Nothing
End If
End If
On Error GoTo 0
If Not sourceRange Is Nothing Then
SourceRcount = sourceRange.Rows.Count
If rnum + SourceRcount >= BaseWks.Rows.Count Then
MsgBox "Sorry there are not enough rows in the sheet"
BaseWks.Columns.AutoFit
mybook.Close savechanges:=False
GoTo ExitTheSub
Else
'Copy the file name in column A
With sourceRange
BaseWks.Cells(rnum, "A"). _
Resize(.Rows.Count).Value = FName(FNum)
End With
'Set the destrange
Set destrange = BaseWks.Range("B" & rnum)
'we copy the values from the sourceRange to the destrange
With sourceRange
Set destrange = destrange. _
Resize(.Rows.Count, .Columns.Count)
End With
destrange.Value = sourceRange.Value
rnum = rnum + SourceRcount
End If
End If
mybook.Close savechanges:=False
End If
Next FNum
BaseWks.Columns.AutoFit
End If
ExitTheSub:

You can create a Querytable for every file in the 'integration' file.

Sub M_snb()
  c00 = "G:\OF\"
  c01 = Dir(c00 & "consolidate*.xlsx")
  Do Until c01 = ""
    c02 = c02 & "|" & c01
    c01 = Dir
  Loop
  sn = Split(Mid(c02, 2), "|")
   
  For j = 0 To UBound(sn)
    c03 = Replace(sn(j), ".xlsx", "")
    If Evaluate("not(isref(" & c00 & "))") Then
      With Sheets.Add(, Sheets(Sheets.Count))
        .Name = c03
        .QueryTables.Add("ODBC;DSN=Excel_xlsb;DBQ=" & c00 & sn(j), .Range("A1"), "SELECT * FROM `Sheet1$`").Refresh False
      End With
    End If
  Next
End Sub

NB. Make sure the filepath nor the file name contains any spaces.

Thank you, Where would I put this code and what changes should I make?

Why quoting a post that's just above ?

Another, perhaps easier method, is to use Data, New Query, From File, From Folder (assuming this is Excel 2016)

Master.xlsmMaster.xlsm

I tried this but it didn't return the desired result. I might not have explained it that well in my original post. The VBA I have above works great it was just missing a few things. the code originally just merged all workbooks into one but removed the header from the table, I was able to tweak the above code and to do exactly what I needed by creating a worksheet that had an empty table with the header I needed and added to the code to copy the generated "DATA" sheet to the "Master" sheet and then delete the "DATA" worksheet so I can re-run whenever to update.
I would like to know if it's possible for the file name that is returned to be shortened? Currently it returns "C:\Excel\Files\Test 1.xlsm" and would prefer just "Test 1". I've attached a test file. If there is a more efficient way of accomplishing all this, I would like to know. Thank you
