Hello all,

I've got some code that opens a number of speadsheetsand copies and pastes the data to a master list. Currently the code needs the files in a specific folder. How do I change it so it doesn't matter where they're stored, but just needs the files to be open?

Ceers,

Jed

Code:
Sub Combine()

Dim LRow As Variant
Dim SRow As Variant
Dim Partners As Range
Dim AWB As Workbook
Dim NWB As Workbook
'Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Set Partners = Sheets("All Data Headcount").Range("p2:p6")
Set AWB = ActiveWorkbook
For Each Name In Partners
    Sheets("All Data Headcount").Select

    With ActiveSheet
        LRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
    End With

Workbooks.Open "H:\My Documents\Partner Management\Data Source SOW\" & Name & ".xlsx"
Set NWB = ActiveWorkbook
'Workbooks("" & AWB).Activate
Sheets("Headcount").Select
    With ActiveSheet
         SRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
    End With
    
    ActiveSheet.Range("$A$2:$M" & SRow).SpecialCells _
        (xlCellTypeVisible).Copy
    AWB.Activate
    
    Sheets("All Data Headcount").Range("A" & LRow + 1).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
        Application.CutCopyMode = False 'Doesn't add data to clipboard

NWB.Close
Next
    Columns("D:E").Select
    Selection.NumberFormat = "m/d/yyyy"
    Columns("M:M").Select
    Selection.NumberFormat = "0.00%"
    Selection.NumberFormat = "0.0%"

End Sub

Re: I need help modifying code to look at open workbooks rather than in a location.

Thanks for the pointer but I'm struggling to add it in correctly... any ideas?

Code:
Sub Combine()
Dim LRow As Variant
Dim SRow As Variant
Dim Partners As Range
Dim AWB As Workbook
Dim NWB As Workbook
Dim OWB As Workbook

Set AWB = ActiveWorkbook

Sheets("All Data Headcount").Select
    With ActiveSheet
        LRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
    End With

For Each OWB In Application.Workbooks

Set OWB = ActiveWorkbook
Sheets("Headcount").Select
With ActiveSheet
    SRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
End With
    
    ActiveSheet.Range("$A$2:$M" & SRow).SpecialCells _
        (xlCellTypeVisible).Copy
    
AWB.Activate
Sheets("All Data Headcount").Range("A" & LRow + 1).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
    Application.CutCopyMode = False 'Doesn't add data to clipboard
Next OWB
    Columns("D:E").Select
    Selection.NumberFormat = "m/d/yyyy"
    
    Columns("M:M").Select
    Selection.NumberFormat = "0.00%"
    Selection.NumberFormat = "0.0%"
End Sub
