I have multiple files in excel and each Excel file has the same Tab name with "Overall Results" I need the data from only Overall Results tabs from multiple files from range A1 to D60 with the same format to mention the Screenshot of excel in each sheet. can anyone help me wiht this..

Below is the screenshot of the data file.

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Sort by date Sort by votes
Try this, it will let you select workbooks and save each workbook's Overall Results sheet A1:D60 to a separate worksheet on the active workbook:

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Debug.Print fso.GetBaseName(ActiveWorkbook.Name)
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ThisWorkbook

fDialog.Filters.Add "All files", "*.*"
 
'Show the dialog. -1 means success!
If fDialog.Show = -1 Then
     'loop through each file
     For Each it In fDialog.SelectedItems
        'get the filename to make a new tab
        SourceName = fso.GetBaseName(it)
        'check to see if this tabname exists
        For i = 1 To ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Count
            'if the tabname exists
            If wb.Sheets(i).Name = SourceName Then
                'if it does, set a counter and go to then next file

                'so Excel won't ask if you want to save it on exit.
                .Range("A1").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy

        End If
    Next

    'if the cancel button is selected

If Len(DupWS) > 0 Then
    x = MsgBox("These Worksheets already exist in" & vbCrLf & "this workbook and were not imported:" & DupWS, vbExclamation)

    app.Quit

End Sub

I did not put in error checking to see if the "Overall Results" exists on every workbook.
