Hi all,
I am an new to the forum and I have ended up here as so to resolve my need in vba aswell learn good things in vba and my requirement goes as follows
I have a folder and the folder has nearly has 350 text files all the text files are of similar patters
Description of text file :
Text file has at least 11 fields and at the max of 18 fields with a delimiter " " (space)
Now I wanted to load only 10th field from the text file to the excel
Since each and every file has duplicates and also considereing the limitations of excel ( I guess it cant store more than 65000+ records) after importing that field I wanted to remove duplicates and then append with 10th field of next file and remove duplicates for the whole list and on and on till 350 text files
My 10th field can be maximum of 8 bytes but it can be less than that ( but Its sure 10th field will be present in the file)
Please note : total size of the folder is around 450 MB ( Total size of all text file)
If anyone has come across this scenario and the slution used will be helpful for me )
Please let me know if anymore information is needed for the same.
Thanks in advance
