Hi all,

i have multiple similar files from different countries to be consolidated by me, i want a VBA to consolidate the data from single files to a consolidated file. below are the basic requirements.

Source File name:- file1 to file 15.
Destination file name:- consol File.
Source sheet name(sample):- IT P&L by bucket

1. All files have same headers.
2. All files have multiple worksheets(all worksheet to be consolidated).
3. All files would be located in the same folder(month wise separate folder).
4. there may be row breakers in source sheets.


Thanks in advance.

Regards
Debraj Patra

Set wbApp = ActiveWorkbook
If Right(pvSrcDir, 1) <> "\" Then pvSrcDir = pvSrcDir & "\"


Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFolder = FSO.GetFolder(pvSrcDir)


Sheets.Add
Set wsTarg = ActiveSheet
For Each oFile In oFolder.Files
  If InStr(oFile.Name, ".xls") > 0 Then            'open file here
         iCnt = iCnt + 1
         sFile = pvSrcDir & oFile.Name
         Workbooks.Open sFile
         Set wbFile = ActiveWorkbook
         Sheets("IT P&L by bucket").Select
           'copy the data

if you want to run this code for ANY file, then the module must be in your PERSONAL.xlsb
in any excel sheet,
click record macro
