Merging Workbooks: So All The Information I Have About These Contacts Is In The Same Book
Jul 15, 2007
I have 2 books right now. Each book has 2 colums of data (See attached jpg.):
Book 1 has a column for "phone number" and another for "street"
Book 2 has a column for "phone number" and another for "house number"
I would like to merge these books together so that all the information I have about these contacts is in the same book. Column A will be the phone numbers, column B will be the street name, and column C will be the house number. As you can see by looking at book 2, I only have house numbers for some of the phone numbers in book 1. My goal here is to have book 2 "look at" book 1, and add any information book 1 does not have (such as house number) to the relevant row (the row where the phone numbers match). This new book will by my book 3. I've attached a jpg. with how book 1 looks, book 2 looks, and how I want book 3 to look.

We have a master worksheet, and I cant let staff see it, but I want them to update 'their bits' themselves, rather than email the admin staff and let them update the master sheet..
every job is on its own row and contains a unique ID.
is there a way i can merge their data in to the correct row and column(s) on the master sheet?
i've been playing with datasources etc

I am trying to merge my boss's contacts. He has one enormous set of contacts in GMail (5000+) and one enormous set of contacts in Excel (5000+) I've exported both sets into excel but how to I merge them?
The headers for each set are in a slightly different order (Home Address, Office Address, Email ...vs.....Office Address, Home Address, Email) Do I need to make sure the order of the headers match in both the GMail Sheet and the Outlook Sheet and is there a faster way to do that than just rearranging them manually?
My second question is how do I merge them? There are a lot of over-laps of people but some info might be different in Outlook than in GMail. For example I might have John Smith as a contact in both Gmail and Outlook but two different email addresses for him under the header "Email 1" how do I make sure one email doesn't eliminate the other? I just want to merge both sets of contact info for each person into one super contact.

I have two very long columns of client names. The columns represent reports that were run at different times on the same information.
What I want to do is merge the two clomuns. The issue is that there are many names that are the same but some that are different. Is there a way that you can merge the info. So it ignores the client names that are the same but auto adds the ones that are new. There are financials in other columns that I want to have come along during the merger.

I want to take Book 1 & Book 2 then combine them into one new book (Book 1 & 2 combined) only if data matches. So in the this example if columns A,B,C,D match Columns H,I,J,K then append the matching row from Book2 to the end of the matching row in Book1 and then save in Book 1 & 2 combined. So if I opened Book 1 & 2 combined and then started a macro that did it automatically. i have tried several times but got know where.

How to copy a formula (16 columns) from a workbook to another, without referencing the source workbook.
Some people are using tricks such as replacing the equal sign "=" for another character such as "^" then using replace all to put the equal sign back again... but this is too much trouble.

I have an excel spreadsheet supplied by a client, let's call this the master sheet, with about 500 URLs and I've been asked to gather information from Google Analytics and place in a spreadsheet. This spreadsheet can't be changed as it goes into their CRM system.
On the master sheet, we have a list of URLS, what I need to do is go through each URL and place the number of visits to each URL on a weekly basis.
Google Analytics excel spreadsheet, will spit out a list of URLs and the page visit numbers.
My question is:
If I have both spreadsheets open, the master spreadsheet and the information from Google Analytics spreadsheet. Is there a way of having both sheets open and doing an exact match on the URLs between both spreadsheets, so we can copy and paste the information directly.
Or even a formula that says something like:
If the master sheet spread has the same URL in the Google Analytics spreadsheet, paste the relevant information into the correct cells?
As you can see, doing this manually will take a long time. I'm just looking for a productive method to save time.

I have a series of duplicate workbooks to allow for distribution to multiple users. The workbooks have a userform which allows the user to save records into a worksheet. I would like to have a standalone workbook which is a merge of all of the worksheets.
Since data will be contiuosly entered, I want the master workbook to have a "constant" link and alway but current without need to run anything.

Is it a good idea to merge xls workbooks in to one master workbook?
I have read online that some say it is ok and nothing will happen and others say it isn't a good idea because macros and formulas will not work right once merge in to one workbook.
So I have many workbooks with 2 - 4 worksheets in them. All have formulas as well as macro's and everything is working fine just as it is. But I would like to have 1 Master workbook with all workbook/worksheets combined in to 1, so that I can stop opening so many workbooks.

I have a few hundred workbooks that I am merging into a single file. I found the following vba code that performed this task very well.
Sub simpleXlsMerger()
Dim bookList As Workbook
Dim mergeObj As Object, dirObj As Object, filesObj As Object, everyObj As Object[code]....
After I merged the data, I realized that I needed to know the source file that each row of information comes from.
How can I modify the above script to copy the filename and add it as an additional column of information when each sheet is copied into the master file?
For Example:
Currently If I have 3 files:
File 1:
1 2 3
4 5 6
File 2:
a b c
d e f
File 3:
v w x
y a b
Running what I currently have will give me:
1 2 3
4 5 6
a b c
d e f
v w x
y a b

I will have about 100 files to merge together that are in one directory. Is it possible to merge all workSHEETS named "Bob" from each workBOOK and end up with just one master file?
I found this code on this web site (no proper reference!). It doesn't work for me. Yes, I changed the directory and it still didn't work. I will have 12 columns (A:L) and differing # of rows in each "Bob" worksheet.
VB:
Sub g_CombineMultWB_AllXLSFiles() ' This Will combine all EMALL XLS files located in the

' into a single worksheet in a newly created (or previously existing) workbook

I'm trying to take a single worksheet from a workbook and merge them all into one workbook. In that master workbook I'm looking to have each of the worksheets on different tabs and the tab names as the original workbook name.
So if I have Workbook1, Workbook2, Workbook3, Workbook4 in a folder. I want to open a new spreadsheet, run this macro, select the folder with the Workbooks in, and have it take the range selected from the worksheet 'other' from each of the workbooks and generate a 'master' Spreasheet where each tab would be called Workbook1, Workbook2, Workbook3, Workbook4 and the contents would be from the 'other' tab
I found some of Ron de Bruin's code online which I've tried to customise.
Currently this takes a range from the tab specified, puts it into an array and then pastes it all into different columns on one worksheet. change this so that it creates a new worksheet for each original workbook, and names it after that workbook.

I have two workbooks, Quotes and Invoices. They have a common field (column) between them called "QuoteID". Since not all quotes turn into invoices, there are more rows in the Quotes workbook than the Invoices one. Is it possible to match the "QuoteID" cell values in Invoices to just the ones in Quotes that match up, and then merge them into a new worksheet? If not, is there an add-on that will accomplish this?

I am attempting to write code for a macro that can cycle through about 30 excel workbooks and merge the data. getting the raw data on one sheet is not a problem, but I also need to sort similar data into corresponding columns while merging such that all data from the workbooks with a certain column heading will be in a single column with a single heading on the summary sheet. The problem is that the column headings on the source workbooks are not always standardized, i.e. "F high", "high F". Each sheet has several columns that look like the one below, with a header at the top and a series of numbers. (please ignore the dashes, I just used them to line up the columns in this post, in excel each value is in a different cell)
F Low---F High---V Low
721-----999---804
721-----999---0
721-----999---0
711-----720---786
711-----720---713
My vba skills are very basic, so I have been approaching this problem with a mountain of if..else and InStr commands, which doesn't seem like the best method and isn't working.

I have 30 xlsx files in a folder and I want the first sheet of all that files to be merged to a new workbook. The thing is I don't want the macro to copy paste the value in to the same sheet of the new master sheet like Ron's excel merge tool does. I want a macro to create new 30 sheets on the master file and copy the data from source files. And I want the newly added sheets to be renamed as the source file name. This works well except the sheet renaming thing.

I have a workbook with two different tabs. On one tab, I have a spreadsheet that lists business names on first column, address # on second column, address street on third column.
On the second spreadsheet, I have address # on first column, address street on second column.
What I want to do is create a column before the first on the second spreadsheet, titled business names, and then have Excel find and match the address # and address names that are the same on the first and second workbook, and for those that are common, insert the business name into the new column on the second spreadsheet.
EX:
Spreadsheet 1 -
Joe's Pizza | 67 | Smith Street
I want it to find 67 Smith Street, and insert Joe's Pizza in second spreadsheet.

I made the following code to merge 2 workbooks together.
The code is to be executed when the user has Workbook A opened. (All sheets in workbook KPISWD are supposed to be moved after all worksheets in workbook KPICustomers).
I keep getting a debug error on the code that is supposed to do the actual move and loop until it is finished with all of the sheets in Workbook B.
Code:
Dim KPICustomers, KPISWD As String
KPICustomers = ActiveWorkbook.Name
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"W:FacturatieKPI per periode SWD.xls"
KPISWD = ActiveWorkbook.Name

I have the below code, which now looks to see if a file is open or not, if it is, then copy and past 'Data' and if not open the book and copy 'Data'.
I think the code is sort of right, but im missing something, as i keep getting runtime error when i try and copy. Here is the
Sub PrintSaveKPIUpdate()
Dim sFilName As String
sFilName = "C: estCashSales_KPI.xls"
Set Main = ThisWorkbook
If IsOpen(sFilName) Then

Is it possible to VLookUp Data between multiple workbooks (12 different workbooks to be exact) in one master sheet?
I would like the master sheet to find the empty data for the item number. Basically, how can I automatically populate the empty data for each item number in the master sheet. Every item will be different. The 12 workbooks are invoices throughout the year (Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, etc) and these workbooks have the data needed to fill the master sheet. How is this possible? Or is it not?
Master sheet.xlsx
-Contains item number
-Purchase Date
-Sell Date
-Purchase Price
-Sell Price
-Profit Price
The 12 workbooks are the 12 months out of the year, which are invoices.
- Contain the data needed in the master sheet such as sell date, sold price, and profit.
The reason I would like to keep the 12 invoices as workbooks instead of worksheets in 1 big file, is due to the high capacity of item numbers each monthly invoice would have. For example (approximately 500 items in each workbook)
I have for hours and weeks, actually months, But I haven't found any sources on the internet, although I have seen the VLook Up how to's on youtube between 2 workbooks, but not the 12 I would like.

What I have is a master file that needs to pull info from other sources (a simple copy and paste)
those files are called Inventory_xxxx.xlsm . Inside the master file, there are cells with the number of the inventory.
What i need is a way to tell excel to check what number is in the cell, open the files with that number, get the info from the files and paste it back in the master file... and the part that i consider the trickiest, a way to loop it.
For example, lets say i have 2248 in cell A10, it should open Inventory_2248.xlsm copy the contents from cell N4, O4, P4, Q4, R4 and S4(Inventory File) into N10,R10,S10,T10 and U10 (Master file) respectively then in A11, there could be a 2250 so it should open the 2250 file get the info, paste it and so on.....
Now I don't even know if this is do-able or just impossible, been fiddling with various codes to no avail.

i have done a search on this topic and found many similar answers to many similar questions. All specify using Application.Run "workbookname.xls!macroname".
In my code, the filename has an assigned value as the master code goes out to many secondary files - the user selects the particular one they want at the start of the macro. The variable assigned is called "UpdateKAMsFile".
how do i get the macro called KAMsRandomColour to run in the workbook designated by UpdateKAMsFile?

so to start off im not able to attach things due to security reasons, what i need is either 1 of 2 macros. if its possible, both are related. one possible is as follows: i need it to go through a certain column (say I for example) and look at the information in it, this information can vary from peoples names along with dates and other stuff, i want it to look through these and if anything has a date today and prior i need the cell to be highlighted. problem is sometimes it might have 2 dates, or no dates. it should have todays date, their name, other information, and future date of something. but not everyone does, this is the macro i dont think that can exists.
2nd macro possibility the other macro uses the first sheet, AFTER been highlighted, normally by hand, and takes it to another workbook and puts in in certain spots. so the first sheet has names of everyone in column K. what i need is it to look at column I and if its highlighted take entire row to other book, and put into sheet under the person name in their tab. the second book has a tab for each person (at this time 18 tabs) which can fluxuate, and each tab is the persons first and last name, without spaces. since when i put sums on main page it didnt want to work with the spaces i had to omit them. again im not sure this is possible.

I am trying to calculate the number of unique contacts that each client has made. So in the example above Client No. 111123 has made 3 unique contacts - numbers 12,34 and 5.
However I'm not having any luck - as I suspect it will be a fiendish array formulae. Alternatively I'd settle for some VBA.
