Merge Excel Documents

27-Aug-07



I am trying to merge multiple excel spreadsheets in regular or CSV format so

I don't have to copy and paste each and every file into one document. The

problem I am experiencing is that the "compare and merge workbooks" is not

highlighted and I cannot access that feature in Excel 2003. Does anybody

know how I can get access to that feature or recommend an altnerative

solution. Thanks.

If the CSV files all have exactly the same fields and no headers, you

can do a "copy file1.csv + file2.csv + file3.csv allfiles.csv" at the

command prompt to concatenate them.



COPY /? to see usage particulars.

Hi Bob,

thanks for the info. I take it you are talking about using DOS or

something similar since you mentioned command prompts.

Do you have any idea how I can use the command within excel? I find it odd

that I cannot access the ability.

No, not "within Excel". I gave you the simple way to do it at a command

prompt. If you want to do it from inside Excel, take a look at Data,

Import external data. Or you could record a Macro, or you could do it in

VBA. If that's the case, pose your question ove in the Excel group, and

be prepared to explain in detail what you want to do and the files you

want to do it with.
