I after a VBA code which would do the following tasks in a separate workbook called Summery.xlsm

Task 1
Copy all data of Sheet D from Workbook1->and paste it to Sheet1of Summery
Copy all data of Sheet D from Workbook 2->and paste it to Sheet1of Summery
Copy all data of Sheet D from Workbook 3->and paste it to Sheet1of Summery
And so on till last workbook

Task2
Copy all data of Sheet A from Workbook1->and paste it to Sheet2of Summery
Copy all data of Sheet A from Workbook2->and paste it to Sheet2of Summery
Copy all data of Sheet A from Workbook3->and paste it to Sheet2of Summery
And so on till last workbook

Any help on the matter will be highly appreciated.

Links of the workbooks are given below, please
Summery
Book1
Book2
 
I followed your instructions. The codes doesn't show any error. But nothing happened. Just a blank workbook opened. The picture of which is as under
this happened because you placed Summery workbook in same folder with 2 target files, when macro open file in selected folder, it will open summery workbook and close it after done, so i change code like this:
VBA Code:
Sub MergeData()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Dim sFiles As Variant
    Dim wb As Workbook, ws As Worksheet
    Dim i As Long, j As Long, Fnum As Integer
    sFiles = Application.GetOpenFilename(Filefilter:="Excel File (*.xls*),*xlsx*", MultiSelect:=True)
    If VarType(sFiles) = vbBoolean Then Exit Sub
    For Fnum = LBound(sFiles) To UBound(sFiles)
        Set wb = Workbooks.Open(sFiles(Fnum))
        For Each ws In wb.Sheets
            If ws.Name = "A" Then
                If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("B3")) Then
                    Debug.Print ws.Range("A3:O" & lr(ws, 1)).Address
                    ws.Range("A3:O" & lr(ws, 1)).Copy Destination:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Range("A" & lr(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2), 1) + 1)
                End If
            ElseIf ws.Name = "D" Then
                If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("A6")) Or Not IsEmpty("J6") Then
                    If lr(ws, 2) > lr(ws, 10) Then
                        i = lr(ws, 2)
                    Else
                        i = lr(ws, 10)
                    End If
                    If lr(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1), 1) > lr(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1), 9) Then 'change this
                        j = lr(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1), 1)
                    Else
                        j = lr(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1), 9)
                    End If
                    ws.Range("B6:Q" & i).Copy Destination:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range("A" & j + 1)
                End If
            End If
        Next ws
        wb.Close (False)
    Next Fnum
    MsgBox "Completed"
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
with this code, you need run code and select all files that need to get data from but don't select summery workbook if that workbook in same folder with those files

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
I am really thankful for the patience and kind guidance. The codes are working very well except one thing.

The “Sheet2” of the “Summery” have many blank rows. In the given example, the data has been successfully copied from Book1 and Book2 but pasted in Summery.Sheet2. range(A1:O13 and A200:O207). The problem is ---Row14 to Row 199 are blank.

IMHO, it is (not sure about it due to my poor knowledge)
VBA Code:
lr = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, col).End(xlUp).Row
And i am trying to solve it my self since because i have bothered you a lot. but no luck

Is it possible to have the continues data. I mean no blank rows.

TIA

Power Query alternative: Get Data --> From File --> From Folder. Once for each of the two sheets.

Solution
Thanks a ton! Its really a blessing for me. I really appreciate your patience. I just deleted/copy paste some lines and its working.

VBA Code:
Sub MergeData()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Dim sFiles As Variant
    Dim wb As Workbook, ws As Worksheet
    Dim i As Long, j As Long, Fnum As Integer
    sFiles = Application.GetOpenFilename(Filefilter:="Excel File (*.xls*),*xlsx*", MultiSelect:=True)
    If VarType(sFiles) = vbBoolean Then Exit Sub
    For Fnum = LBound(sFiles) To UBound(sFiles)
        Set wb = Workbooks.Open(sFiles(Fnum))
        For Each ws In wb.Sheets
            If ws.Name = "A" Then
                If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("B3")) Then
                    ws.Range("A3:O" & lr(ws, 2)).Copy Destination:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Range("A" & lr(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2), 2) + 1) 'change this to find last row of sheet A, column 2 because column 1 contains formula
                End If
           
           ElseIf ws.Name = "D" Then
                If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("B6")) Then
                    ws.Range("B5:I" & lr(ws, 2)).Copy Destination:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range("A" & lr(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1), 2) + 1) 'change this to find last row of sheet A, column 2 because column 1 contains formula
                End If
                If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("J6")) Then
                    ws.Range("J5:P" & lr1(ws, 2)).Copy Destination:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range("J" & lr1(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1), 2) + 1) 'change this to find last row of sheet A, column 2 because column 1 contains formula
                End If

Private Function lr(ByVal ws As Worksheet, ByVal col As Integer) As Long
    lr = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
     
End Function
Private Function lr1(ByVal ws As Worksheet, ByVal col As Integer) As Long
  
    lr1 = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, "J").End(xlUp).Row
   
End Function

Private Function lr1(ByVal ws As Worksheet, ByVal col As Integer) As Long
 
    lr1 = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, "J").End(xlUp).Row
  
End Function
just need 1 last row function bro, the "col" variable in my "lr" function is column number, if you need to find last row of column B, just change [ lr("your worksheet",2) ], if you need to find last row of column J, just change [ lr("your worksheet",10) ]

Thanks for the input. Now i am able to understand the meaning of 2 and 10.
My bad, i could not explain my problem properly. Although i tried my best to expain it in the notes inserted in the Book 1 and Book 2.
Let me explain it again.
If the data under column B > data under column J Then
lr("your worksheet",2
If the data under column B < data under column J Then
lr("your worksheet",10
You gave me the strength of knowledge with kindness and patience. For which i am really thankful to you from the bottom of my heart.
