This is my first post so please bear with me. I have only a little experience with VBA coding.
I have no coding done so far because I do not know where to start.
I have workbooks containing one sheet of data only. I will be opening these one by one and performing the extract before moving to the next one.
All the worksheets are laid out the same way but, the number of columns varies from one to the next. The first 2 title columns contain store number and name in rows. The intermediate columns contain a varying number of "sizes" and some "sizes" may repeat with the quantities per store as data below that. The last columns are totals. The number of totals columns can vary from 1 to ?? depending on unique values in the intermediate column headers. The totals columns group together all columns with the same "sizes" and the data in those columns is the sum of all the columns with the same sizes.
I need to extract the totals columns one at a time into a separate workbook (let's call this workbook the "Summary"). The "Summary" workbook is arranged "transposed" meaning that each column's data from the source workbook will add a row to the "Summary" workbook.
First I need to find the position of each Totals column and copy. Then I need to paste "transposed" into the destination row.

I understand this is a big ask but any examples to guide me would be of help.
Thank you

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
Hello @Boomer1962.
Welcome to the MrExcel forum. Please accept my warmest greetings and sincere hope that all is well.

To help you with a macro, it is necessary that you give examples of how the structure of your data is in the sheets of your books.
And, very important, the result you want.

Look at the example of this post, the poster put examples of how the data is in his sheets and put 2 examples of the results he wants.
He was so precise in his examples that the macro worked first time.

It is not necessary that your examples contain real data, they can be fictitious data, the important thing is to see the real location of the data, in which row it starts, in which column it starts. If a title must be searched, then that title how do I find it on the sheet, with lower case, with upper case, etc.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks for the example and for doing it with the XL2BB tool, but unfortunately it's not complete.

And, very important, the result you want.
Just like commenting on post#2, it is very important that you post the results. The sheet you put with results is empty.
You must put the results, and I am going to ask you something else, explain how to obtain those results.

An example is too little, considering that you mention that the sheets in the books contain different sizes.
So put at least 3 examples and the results of each example.

I have workbooks containing one sheet of data only.
I have other questions:
Please answer each question very briefly.

1. Do you want the macro to work only for one file?
2. If it's only for one file, will the file already be open?
3. If the file is not open, do you want the macro to open the file?
4. How do you want me to open the file, is it a fixed name?
5. Do you want the macro to open windows explorer and you select the file?
6. If there are several files, in which folder are the files?
7. If you are going to process all the files in the folder, where should you put the output for each file?

All these data are necessary to help you.
