Good day all,

I'm new to Google sheets and excel in general. I have a little problem, which I think might be too complex to automate, so it might be a long shot, but if someone has a solution to it, I would greatly appreciate it.

Currently, I have daily auto generated reports that is uploaded to a drive and named in the format "ddmyy_orders". So for example, on 24 november 2020, it would be named "241120_orders" and if it were the following day, it would be named "251120_orders".

What I want to do is have a program or macro help automatically extract data daily from these sheets and compile it into a master sheet.
So basically, on 24 Nov 2020, the program will search for "241120_orders" and extract the data and paste it on the next active row in the master sheet, and on 25 Nov 2020, it will search for "251120_orders" and do the same. Hopefully this will repeat daily and the entire process is automated.

Can this be done? Or is it too complex?

Regards,
Jacob
