Hello
I want to import multiple text files in singe workbook but each text file will be on new sheet.
i have following code which does the same but there is an issue with that. the issue is that my delimiter used is "|" but is the text file contains "," then the data after that is missing.
For example
Text File data -> XX,YY,ZZ
Excel data -> XX

Sub CombineTextFiles()
'updateby Extendoffice 20151015
Dim xFilesToOpen As Variant
Dim I As Integer
Dim xWb As Workbook
Dim xTempWb As Workbook
Dim xDelimiter As String
Dim xScreen As Boolean
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
xScreen = Application.ScreenUpdating
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
xDelimiter = "|"
xFilesToOpen = Application.GetOpenFilename("Text Files (*.txt), *.txt", , "MF Tool", , True)
If TypeName(xFilesToOpen) = "Boolean" Then
MsgBox "No files were selected", , "MF Tool"
GoTo ExitHandler
End If
I = 1
Set xTempWb = Workbooks.Open(xFilesToOpen(I))
xTempWb.Sheets(1).Copy
Set xWb = Application.ActiveWorkbook
xTempWb.Close False
