    Importing Multiple individual txt files into one single spreadsheet using 2003 Excel

    I have numberial raw data taken from a monitoring stations. Currently when I import the data utilizing the excel 2003 importing feature which sets the delimiters within for the data which is 145 rows and up tothe V column. And that is successful however I was wondering if there is a way within the Excel spreadsheet that multiple files could be imported instead of doing it one by one.

    Am a little frusted and thinking maybe Excel is the wrong way to go... oh well if someone has a brillian and
    even better idea, I am open to it.

    appreciate the help.

    look and try the...

    Data menu ->Get External Data -> it will display "Text Import Wizard" -> follow steps there.
    then you can consolidate if you want the text converted to xl data into one sheet or what ever purpose it may serve you.
    I think people forget the word "THANK YOU!!!!" Do you still know it???

    There is a little star ( ADD REPUTATION ) below those person who helped you. Click it to say your "PRIVATE APPRECIATION TO THEIR EFFORT ON THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS "

    I went to the Data menu/Get External Data-> NO Import Wizard, but only Import which takes me to where I select the file.
    Then the Text Delimiter Wizard dialog box pops up. Which is how I was importing it to begin with....however how do I get more
    then one file to be brought in instead of one.... only because i have 200 to import and wanted to to it all at one time....maybe a
    macro i think.... :-)

    is there another way.....

    appreciate it.
