    Unhappy Combine data of some cells in multiple excel files into one sheet

    Hi guys,

    I have hundreds of sheets with the same layout and I need to extract data from those sheets into 1 sheet.

    There is a very similar topic I found some days ago in this forum, but my case is a bit different, as I need to extract the info only from some cells. The topic is below and Alf solved the problem:
    http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...worksheet.html

    The sheets are all into the following folder: C:\Users\5 - PRODUCTION\RUN SHEETS\
    The cells it needs the extract the information are: C3, C5, C8, D8, E8, D9, G13, H13, F22, F24, F26, F29, F31, F34, F40, D43, E43, F46, D49, E49, F52, F55, C58, C59, C60, C61, C62

    There is a macro that can extract the info from these cells into a single sheet?
    This can save me some months of manually typing all this info :/

    You can find below 1 of those hundreds (maybe thousands) sheets I need to extract the info:
    2308.E5.xls

    Really hope you guys can help me on that!
    Thank you!

    Hi Naveed Raza,
    Thank you for your reply.

    The idea is every single excel file is a row, and the cells I mentioned are the columns.
    Do you think it is possible?

    Thanks for that.

    Hi lotuxel,
    Thank for your reply as well.

    I had a look in the file and I didn't understand your macro.
    Actually the goal is to get all the data from the mentioned cells from hundreds of excel files and combine them into 1 sheet.
    The files would be the rows and the cells I mentioned would be the columns.
    The sheets are all into C:\Users\5 - PRODUCTION\RUN SHEETS\

    Is it something similar you did in your macro?

    I thank you in advance.

    Re: Combine data of some cells in multiple excel files into one sheet

    Hi Naveed Raza,
    Thank you for your reply.

    Please find attachments below:
    0102.E1.xls
    1282.E2.xls
    2007.E2.xls
    2310.E3.xls
    Goal.xlsx

    The goal sheet show the sheet I am looking for, with this structure, that compile all the other sheets into this one. The letters+number inside the cells are the cell number I need to extract from the other sheets.
    The other sheets I attached, are examples of some of the sheets that I need to extract the information. You can see that the red cells are the cells I want to extract the information.

    Do you think it is possible?

    I thank you in advance.

    Hi lotuxel,
    Thank you for your reply.

    Sorry but I didn't understand very well.
    I thought the macro was going to open each excel file in the folder and copy those cells into the goal sheet.
    Is that happening in the macro? Or how it works? I couldn't understand very well your explanation before the code

    Looking forward to hear from you
