I have a workbook that links out to numerous other workbooks for current data. After one of the supporting workbooks gets up dated, I return to the master workbook.
Here, I need to see the updated results. The only way that I can find a way of updating the master is to close and save it and then re-open.
Is there a way of updating the master workbook using a macro?

Here is a project I can’t seem to do on my own if you can point me in the right direction I would be grateful! here is the best suedo code to describe the needs of the script:
In the open workbook named MASTER, on Worksheet named -MASTER- ( Let’s refer to this all as just MASTER)
(In production, the name of this workbook will be an account #_ date, and the worksheet will be a date)
For each numeric value in row 6 (we’ll call these values AD###) of MASTER
'*****Part one of routine*****
Search directory "H:AccountingAdvertising Accounts" for workbook named AD### AX.xls
(Note the AX suffix of the file name)
If match is found open workbook and proceed to Part two
If match is not found, goto Private Sub AD_MISSING
'*****Part two of routine*****

I have multiple excel files from which I would like to copy specific ranges to a master file. The row should add up to the previous rows. From this side I have no problems things work fine. The problem is to copy the header which remains the same data to the top of the master file. Currently the macro I use overwrite the first line of the master file. So I loose the date from one of the excel files.

I'm trying to collect specific data from a collection of different (.xls) files into 1 master file using the following code (which runs in the master file):
Code:
Sub FolderPick()
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
[Code].....
I'm having trouble with the Name-variable in the 'red line'. This variable is set in the 'purple lines' however, the code (which I got online) keeps adding ".pdf" to the name.
I think it has to do with the settings of the 'purple/underlined line' but I don't know if this is true and if so, how to change it.

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 am trying to make my macro more dynamic for a spreadsheet I am working on. I have this code which splits out worksheets (using the specific names of the worksheets-not dynamic) from a main workbook into template workbooks (which are basically just an empty workbook because I didn't know how else to do it) and then saves them using the paths below. I would like to make this more dynamic by splitting the different worksheets into new workbooks based on a key column in the hierarchy worksheet.
Basically I have a list of accounts in column B with the file name they should be exported to in column A. There are about 30 accounts being split into 6 different region files. Also note that the same account might be listed multiple times in column A (needed to add multiple numbers for other lookup formulas in the worksheets) but that account worksheet will still only be going to one of the six region files and not to multiple regions. After these are copied to an individual file I would like to save it to a location on my computer. All files will go to this location.
VB:
Sub Create_Subfiles()
Dim FDMName As String
Dim FBName As String
Dim DIYName As String
Dim WMName As String
[Code] .....

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.
Sub Merge2MultiSheets()
Dim wbDst As Workbook
Dim wbSrc As Workbook

I need a macro that would consolidate all data in multiple worksheets of multiple workbooks in one Master file.
All the workbooks will be in one particular folder. The macro should search for data in all the workbooks and consolidate it in one master excel workbook.
I am currently using both excel 2007 and excel 2010. This macro would really reduce manual work as currently consolidating data from 45 to 50 sheets takes an ample amount of time...

I'm new to Excel Macros and have hit a brick wall on what I would consider
to be my primary workhorse macro! I'm embarrassed to admit that I haven't
mastered coding for movement of data around the spreadsheet much beyond
the macro recorder. I need something tight, efficient, and (instructively commented)!
I've got a spreadsheet consisting of a Master table with 42 rows, (2 rows
per record), and 14 columns of information. To the left of that is another
table consisting of live data from the process. It has anywhere from 1 to
24 rows with 10 columns representing Current/Live/Pre-processed information,
pulled in from the company web location.
Both tables start with an indexing column of 2 character alphanumeric IDs.
They are as follows: C2, D3, D4, E3, E4, F3, F4, G3, G4, H3, H4, I2, I3,
I4, J2, J3, J4, K1, K2, K3, K4.
MASTER TABLE Index Column is B4 to B44 (2 rows per record, in A->Z order)
UPDATE TABLE Index Column is Y4 to Y24 (Could be from 1 to 21 rows (Max),
1 per record, normally in A-Z order.
What I need to do is Key on the Master index column for a particular ID,
against the UPDATE index column. When there's a match I need to take the
updated values from the UPDATE table and assign them to the appropriate
cells locations in the MASTER table.
Example:
Starting with ID "C2" in the MASTER table, check to see if "C2" exists in
the UPDATE Table Index. If there's a match the following cell value
transfers must occur. Z4 -> E4, AB4 -> J4, AC4 -> J5, AD4 -> H4,
AE4 -> K4 and AG4 -> I4. If "C2 is not found in the UPDATE Table then skip
to next ID, (D3).
If ID D3 is found, another cell value transfer must occur. Z5 -> E6,
AB5 -> J6, AC5 -> J7, AD5 -> H6, AE5 -> K6, and AG5 -> I6. If "D3 has no
updates then skip to next ID and so on. Continue checking IDs and updating
until all IDs have been checked.
I'm having difficulty crafting a macro to search 2 columns against one nother,
specify the correct ActiveCell, than offset appropriately to place the desired
value in the correct location.

I have one "master" spreadsheet I utilize per month. Each month my "master" spreadsheet is updated twice a week (so, for a four week month I update my "master" spreadsheet a total of eight times).
To update my "master" spreadsheet I compare it to an "update" spreadsheet that contains the same column headings as my "master" spreadsheet.
What I need updated:
I need to compare account numbers (column A) between the two spreadsheets, once I find a match I need to update each of the costs for the 5 products (columns B thru F) from the "update" spreadsheet to the "master" spreadsheet. I currently have a simple SUM(IF) statement that completes this for the first update.
I am lost at how I can have my "master" continually update for the next seven updates without losing each of the previous updates.Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
I am attaching two sample spreadsheets - "master" and "update".

I'm currently working on a form to fill out in a study on different analyzers; the master form has gone through several revisions. To keep things looking neat, all the "children" forms have had to be altered, too. The amount of data is getting large and having to do this is getting annoying.
Is there a way to create a master form that is modifyable where the changes are spread through the children? i.e. if I insert a row with new information, I'd like the change to occur on multiple sheets. If I move a row to a different spot, similarly, I'd want all my forms with data to move around to follow suit.

I have a workbook with 6 worksheets inside; One of the sheets is a master list; it's simply the other 5 sheets compiled into 1 big one. I need to set it up so that any new data entered into the 5 separate department sheets is automatically entered onto the master sheet, in the first blank row.
The columns are the same across all the sheets. Hopefully this will be easier for the pros here than it's been for me, I've been banging my head against the wall on this one. I'll be checking this thread religiously, so if you need any more information just let me know...

I have a Master workbook that contains the complete sales for the entire business. This is based on input from 12 different departments. These 12departments have their own slave Excel workbook that they enter information into. The 13 files are all located in the same directory on a network folder.
What I want to do is to automatically gather all the entries from the 12 slave workbooks to the master workbook whenever the macro I am trying to create is run. There is no way of knowing how many new entries each workbook will contain and they have to be added so that that they don't overwrite eachother and so that they are put in sequence after the last row in the master workbook.
Now the information to be gathered is located on the first worksheet in all the three workbooks. The destination sheet in the Master workbook is also the first worksheet in the workbook. The structure of the information that I want to copy is equal on all the worksheets. How would I go about doing so?

I have multiple sheets all of which are identical except for the number of rows containing data. I have been trying to create a macro to update these sheets into one 'Master' sheet but I'm having great difficulties due to me needing to leave Column A and Row 1 blank.
I have uploaded example data of what I am after, sheets 2 - 6 need to be automatically updated to the 'Master' sheet when the macro is run.

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 wish to be able to get data from several workbooks (.xls), and gather all the data in one master workbook.
As I said, I've got a number of workbooks with data I wish to copy and merge into one master worksheet. Each workbook contains a sheet called "MILESTONES" (project) in which I want to pick up data. The data ranges from A5:J88, but I think this can be expanded by the users (more rows). There is no guarantee that the users will enter data in all the columns. Columns A and B occur frequently blank, so the users usually starts entering in information in column C (heading = description).
The Master workbook contains of exactly the same headings, except that the columns has been expanded by 1. Column A1 has the heading "Workpack" which is the name of the workbook the information has been gathered from (description is in column D1). This name can be found in a sheet called "REPORT" in all of the workbooks, and I want this to be copied over, row by row so it matches the data. I don't know if it can cause any trouble, but the names are merged through C to J in row 12 in all of the workbooks.
The workbooks (or workpacks) and the master workbook (summary) are placed in the same folder. Let's say C:Project. The workbooks also changes names frequently (each month). Lastly, if there is a way to automatically update the master workbook every time it is opened.

at the moment I'm trying to consolidate four Workbooks to a Master Workbook.
The four Workbooks I want to merge have the same table structure but except the "Project Number" they have almost different data in their columns.
What I want to do is creating a Master Workbook in which all the Projects are listed once with the information of all four Lists.
While consolidating the data should be checked whether it is already in the Master Workbook or not:
If yes the Macro should copy the to adding data in the existing Project row and there in the correct column.
If not the Macro should create a new row for the Project.

I have a folder containing about 56 workbooks each uniquely named with a tab just called "Worksheet". What I'd like to do is make a master file that creates 56 tabs, each tab being from 1 of the 56 workbooks.
I tried creating a macro but it is bugging out on me after the first workbook and I'm not that strong in VBA. Below is the macro I've been working on (I've excluded the folder path for obvious reasons):
Sub Merge()
Path = "--------"
Filename = Dir(Path & "*.xlsx")
Do While Filename ""
Workbooks.Open Filename:=Path & Filename, ReadOnly:=True
For Each Sheet In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
Sheet.Copy After:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1)
Next Sheet
Workbooks(Filename).Close
Filename = Dir()
Loop
End Sub
I could manually do it but this will be a recurring event where the file names will not be similar, so I'd like to build a process to handle that scenario.

I have a folder that contains many workbooks that contain the same layout of information just with different workbook names. Im looking to copy certain customer information from each WB to a master sheet, such as name, adress, city, ect.
-Folder to lookin for all WB's information - D:Documents and SettingsRonMy DocumentsNew Folder (3)
-The sheet to copy the info from in each WB is named "Quote"
-The ranges to copy are B5:D5, B6:D6, F6:I6, K6:M6
-I want to use a command button to trigger the code and copy the info to the open WB on Sheet12.
-The info going into in sheet12 is layed out across each column.
Example of Sheet12:
A1 = B5:D5, B1 = B6:D6, C1= F6:I6, D1 = K6:M6, so each copied WB will used the same layout and just copy to the next line.
Example :
A1 = B5:D5, B1 = B6:D6, C1= F6:I6, D1 = K6:M6 (Ea. WB information)
A2 = B5:D5, B1 = B6:D6, C1= F6:I6, D1 = K6:M6 (Ea. WB information)
A3 = B5:D5, B1 = B6:D6, C1= F6:I6, D1 = K6:M6 (Ea. WB information)

I have 600+ variations of the same workbook. Contained within each workbook is a worksheet, from which I need to copy and paste a range of cells into one "master" workbook. For example, in workbook 1 I need to copy rows 2:5 and paste that into the master workbook in cells 2:5. Then I need to open workbook 2, copy rows 2:5 and paste them into the master workbook starting at row 6. I have fumbled my way through everything except the pasting part into the Master workbook.

I am trying to put together a small rota/hours manager. I would like each employee to have their own workbook file and update it everyday. Then I would like to have a master workbook which reads each workbook and returns the data inside the workbooks when opened or on the press of a button. I have looked at paste special and other linking ways, but couldnt quite get them to work. Is it possible for the master workbook to keep the data retrieved in date order and then perform a calculation for each row/employee to calculate that days wages. (rate of pay stored in Pay_Rate sheet.) Finally, if there is an easy solution would it matter if the employee spreasheets were password protected?

So, I'm setting up an accounting book. There's a master sheet that needs to pull from the other sheets that are made. The problem is, with each new sheet that is made, I have to update the formulas on the master. I would like that if I made a new sheet, the master would automatically pull from it.
Example:
Master pulls renter fee info from May 3rd, May 7th
I create sheet (May 15th)
Master pulls renter info from May 3rd, May 7th, May 15th
