    Macros to Organize the Data from multiple files to one file

    BACKGROUND: Every month I run a report that performs calculations related to the equipment I am operating. The third party program performing these calculations then generates an excel output that lists every unit name in column A and the corresponding output data in columns B through W.

    Because Units are grouped by location, I end up with about 7 different excel output files, each containing a list of 1 to 25 units.

    Every month I create a new folder and store these 7 files in that folder.


    PROBLEM: I would like to have the information organized according to unit name instead of by month. Ideally, this would be one file with a sheet for every unit. The sheets would be labelled 'Unit A'...'Unit B'...etc. (The names would be identical to those listed in column A, mentioned in paragraph 1 above).


    QUESTION: What module/macro would prompt me to select a folder (ex. 'June 05'), and then it would individually open all 7 files within that folder, match the names in column A to the unit names listed on each sheet, and paste the corresponding row of data (columns B through W) on the first available row??
