Loop through files in a directory and copy data into a master sheet with VBA code
If you want to copy specified data in range A1:D4 from all sheet1 of workbooks in a certain folder to a master sheet, please do as follows.
1. In the workbook you will create a master worksheet, press the Alt + F11 keys to open the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window.
2. In the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window, click Insert > Module. Then copy below VBA code into the code window.
VBA code: loop through files in a folder and copy data into a master sheet
Sub Merge2MultiSheets()
Dim xRg As Range
Dim xSelItem As Variant
Dim xFileDlg As FileDialog
Dim xFileName, xSheetName, xRgStr As String
Dim xBook, xWorkBook As Workbook
Dim xSheet As Worksheet
On Error Resume Next
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
xSheetName = "Sheet1"
xRgStr = "A1:D4"
Set xFileDlg = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
With xFileDlg
If .Show = -1 Then
xSelItem = .SelectedItems.Item(1)
Set xWorkBook = ThisWorkbook
Set xSheet = xWorkBook.Sheets("New Sheet")
If xSheet Is Nothing Then
xWorkBook.Sheets.Add(after:=xWorkBook.Worksheets(xWorkBook.Worksheets.Count)).Name = "New Sheet"
Set xSheet = xWorkBook.Sheets("New Sheet")
End If
xFileName = Dir(xSelItem & "\*.xlsx", vbNormal)
If xFileName = "" Then Exit Sub
Do Until xFileName = ""
Set xBook = Workbooks.Open(xSelItem & "\" & xFileName)
Set xRg = xBook.Worksheets(xSheetName).Range(xRgStr)
xRg.Copy xSheet.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
xFileName = Dir()
xBook.Close
Loop
End If
End With
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End SubNote:
1. In the code, “A1:D4” and “Sheet1” mean that data in range A1:D4 of all Sheet1 will be copied into the master sheet. And “New Sheet” is the name of the new created master sheet.
2. The Excel files in the specific folder should not open.
3. Press the F5 key to run the code.
4. In the opening Browse window, please select the folder contains the files you will loop through, and then click the OK button. See screenshot:
Then a master worksheet named “New Sheet” is created at the end of current workbook. And data in range A1:D4 of all Sheet1 in selected folder is listed inside the worksheet.
