How to create a list from same cells across multiple sheets in Excel?

Author Kelly Last modified

Supposing we deploy every monthly sales table in a separated worksheet as below screen shot shown, and all sales tables have the same layout. Now we want to create a list from all sum values (Cell E6) across multiple worksheets. How to get it done? And what if create a dynamic list from sum values of each worksheet? There are two ways for you:

Create a list from same cells across multiple sheets with VBA

With the following VBA code, you can create a list from the specified cells across multiple worksheets easily. You can do as follows:

Step 1: Select the specified cell that you will create your list from. In our case, we select the Cell E6.

Step 2: Press Alt + F11 keys simultaneously to open the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window, click Insert > Module, and then paste the following code into the module window.

VBA: Create a list from same cells across multiple sheets

Sub CreateList()
Dim xAddWs As Worksheet
Dim xWs As Worksheet
Dim RngAddress As String
xTitleId = "KutoolsforExcel"
RngAddress = Application.ActiveCell.Address
Set xAddWs = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Add
xAddWs.Name = xTitleId
i = 1
For Each xWs In Application.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If xWs.Name <> xTitleId Then
xAddWs.Cells(i, 1).Value = xWs.Range(RngAddress).Value
i = i + 1
End If
Next
End Sub

Step 3: Press F5 key or click the Run button to run this VBA.

Then all values from the specified cell on all worksheets are copied to a new worksheet named KutoolsforExcel. See screen shot:

This VBA will fill the list into a new worksheet, and the values in the list are static which won’t change with the original values.

However, sometimes you may want to fill the list into specified range, and require the list values always be correspondence with the original values in specified cells all the time. To meet these needs, you should try the following method.
