Thanks to Ron De Bruin for this wonderful code. I copy/pasted it and have been hacking at it here and there to try and make it fit my situation. I have limited experience with VBA so please forgive my butchering of this.
I would like to set the source cells (which are non-contiguos) and paste them in the worksheet (in a location differening from the cell address in the source).
I would also like the pasted values to be pasted across the row rather than down the column.
I changed RDB's code to paste directly to active worksheet rather than create a new one. I have also changed source cells.
Any help much appreciated.

'The example macro below you can use to merge a fixed range or
'all cells from one or all worksheets from each workbook in a folder
'First we call the Function "Get_File_Names" to fill a array with all file names
'There are three arguments in this Function that we can change
'1) MyPath = the folder where the files are
'2) Subfolders = True if you want to include subfolders
'3) ExtStr = file extension of the files you want to merge
' ExtStr examples are: "*.xls" , "*.csv" , "*.xlsx"
' "*.xlsm" ,"*.xlsb" , for all Excel file formats use "*.xl*"
' Do not change myReturnedFiles:=myFiles
'Then if there are files in the folder we call the macro "Get_Data"
'There are six arguments in this macro that we can change
'1) FileNameInA = True to add the path/file name in the A column
'2) PasteAsValues = True to paste as values (recommend)
'3) SourceShName = sheet name, if "" it will use the SourceShIndex and if "all" it copy from all worksheets
'4) SourceShIndex = to avoid problems with different sheet names use the index (1 is the first worksheet)
'5) SourceRng = Range you want to copy. Tip: "A:F" will copy all cells with data in this six columns
'6) StartCell = Enter the first cell and the macro will copy from that cell till the last cell on the worksheet
' If StartCell = "" then it use the SourceRng
' Do not change myReturnedFiles:=myFiles
'The example below will merge A1:G1 from the first worksheet of each file
'It will use a fixed range on the first worksheet because SourceShName and StartCell are ""
