The closest post I've found that does similar to what I'm needing: Import last row of csv to excel answered by @DanteAmor

@DanteAmor I'm looking to do something similar but I have about 650 CSV files that I need to do the following for...
For each CSV file, I need to import the file name as Column A and then import the last row of 5 columns.

They are all in the same directory.

For further e.g. -

I have files named

AA1234.CSV
AA1235.CSV
AA1236.CSV
AA1237.CSV
AA1238.CSV
etc

and then each of the files appear as such -

I would like for my new file to add the name of the excel file to the first column and then pull the last row from each of the files.

Thanks for all of your help in advance!
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.

We ran into an error... When a new device is added to the network and there's only been 1 login (1 row added to CSV), the script breaks. I've attached the error and the highlighted line causing the break.

In those cases, there is no penultimate, so don't copy?

Try this:

VBA Code:
Sub Import_last_row()
  Dim wb As Workbook
  Dim sh As Worksheet
  Dim sPath As String, sFile As Variant
  Dim lr As Long, i As Long
  
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  
  Set sh = Sheets("Sheet1")
  sPath = "C:\trabajo\entrada\"
  sFile = Dir(sPath & "*.csv")
  i = 2
  Do While sFile <> ""
    Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=sPath & sFile, ReadOnly:=True, local:=True)
    lr = wb.Sheets(1).Range("A:E").Find("*", , xlValues, , xlByRows, xlPrevious).Row - 1
    If lr > 1 Then
      sh.Range("A" & i).Value = Replace(sFile, ".csv", "")
      sh.Range("B" & i).Resize(1, 5).Value = wb.Sheets(1).Range("A" & lr).Resize(1, 5).Value
      i = i + 1
    End If
    wb.Close False
    sFile = Dir()
  Loop
  Columns("C:C").NumberFormat = "[$-F400]h:mm:ss AM/PM"
End Sub

I got an error 91 with that but with this modification, I got the error to go away... Proper way of doing it instead?

So you're not looking blindly, this is the part I changed but the full code below as well...

VBA Code:
lr = wb.Sheets(1).Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlByRows, xlPrevious).Row
    If lr > 1 Then
      lr = wb.Sheets(1).Range("A:E").Find("*", , xlValues, , xlByRows, xlPrevious).Row - 1

VBA Code:
Sub Import2ndLast()
  Dim wb As Workbook
  Dim sh As Worksheet
  Dim sPath As String, sFile As Variant
  Dim lr As Long, i As Long
  
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  
  Set sh = Sheets("Sheet1")
  sPath = "C:\trabajo\entrada\"
  sFile = Dir(sPath & "*.csv")
  i = 2
  Do While sFile <> ""
    Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=sPath & sFile, ReadOnly:=True, local:=True)
    lr = wb.Sheets(1).Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlByRows, xlPrevious).Row
    If lr > 1 Then
      lr = wb.Sheets(1).Range("A:E").Find("*", , xlValues, , xlByRows, xlPrevious).Row - 1
      sh.Range("A" & i).Value = Replace(sFile, ".csv", "")
      sh.Range("B" & i).Resize(1, 5).Value = wb.Sheets(1).Range("A" & lr).Resize(1, 5).Value
      i = i + 1
    End If
    wb.Close False
    sFile = Dir()
  Loop
  Columns("D:D").NumberFormat = "[$-F400]h:mm:ss AM/PM"
End Sub

I did not understand.
Do you have a problem or have you already solved it?

NOTE: If the csv file is empty then you will have problems.
