[SOLVED] Excel VBA: How to combine specific worksheets from different workbooks?

Excel VBA: How to combine specific worksheets from different workbooks?

I am still very new to VBA and am trying to combine certain worksheets from different workbooks.

For example:

I have a workbook called "One" with multiple worksheets (A,B,C,D).
I have another workbook called "Two" with multiple worksheets (E,F,G,H).

I want to take worksheet A from workbook One and worksheets F and G from workbook Two. I wish to put these different worksheets in a new workbook called "Three."

My fields in worksheets A and F are in the exact same format, so I also wish to combine these two worksheets and put F data in the same fields under the A data, as soon as my cells containing A data finishes.

Could anyone help me with this code??
If anyone also has any links to VBA for beginners that would be highly appreciated.

Solution

Take a look at example:

'enforce declaration of variables 
Option Explicit

Sub CombineWorkbooks()
Dim sWbkOne As String, sWbkTwo As String
Dim wbkOne As Workbook, wbkTwo As Workbook, wbkThree As Workbook
Dim wshSrc As Worksheet, wshDst As Worksheet

On Error GoTo Err_CombineWorkbooks

'get the path
sWbkOne = GetWbkPath("Open workbook 'One'")
sWbkTwo = GetWbkPath("Open workbook 'Two'")
'in case of "Cancel"
If sWbkOne = "" Or sWbkTwo = "" Then
    MsgBox "You have to open two workbooks to be able to continue...", vbInformation, "Information"
    GoTo Exit_CombineWorkbooks
End If

'open workbooks: 'One' and 'Two'
Set wbkOne = Workbooks.Open(sWbkOne)
Set wbkTwo = Workbooks.Open(sWbkTwo)
'create new one - destination workbook
Set wbkThree = Workbooks.Add

'define destination worksheet
Set wshDst = wbkThree.Worksheets(1)

'start copying worksheets
'A
Set wshSrc = wbkOne.Worksheets("A")
wshSrc.UsedRange.Copy wshDst.Range("A1")
'F
Set wshSrc = wbkTwo.Worksheets("F")
wshSrc.UsedRange.Copy wshDst.Range("A1").End(xlDown)
'G
Set wshSrc = wbkTwo.Worksheets("G")
wshSrc.UsedRange.Copy wshDst.Range("A1").End(xlDown)

'done!

Exit_CombineWorkbooks:
    On Error Resume Next
    Set wbkThree = Nothing
    If Not wbkTwo Is Nothing Then wbkTwo.Close SaveChanges:=False
    Set wbkTwo = Nothing
    If Not wbkOne Is Nothing Then wbkOne.Close SaveChanges:=False
    Set wbkOne = Nothing
    Set wshDst = Nothing
    Set wshSrc = Nothing
    Exit Sub

Err_CombineWorkbooks:
    MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation, Err.Number
    Resume Exit_CombineWorkbooks


End Sub


Function GetWbkPath(ByVal initialTitle) As String
Dim retVal As Variant

retVal = Application.GetOpenFilename("Excel files(*.xlsx),*.xlsx", 0, initialTitle, , False)
If CStr(retVal) = CStr(False) Then retVal = ""

GetWbkPath = retVal

End Function

Note: Above code has been written ad-hoc, so it may not be perfect.

[EDIT2] If you would like to copy data into different sheets, please, replace corresponding code with below, but firstly remove these lines:

'define destination worksheet
Set wshDst = wbkThree.Worksheets(1)

later:

'start copying data 
'A
Set wshDst = wbkThree.Worksheets.Add(After:=wbkThree.Worksheets(wbkThree.Worksheets.Count))
wshDst.Name = "A"
Set wshSrc = wbkOne.Worksheets("A")
wshSrc.UsedRange.Copy wshDst.Range("A1")
'F
Set wshSrc = wbkTwo.Worksheets("F")
Set wshDst = wbkThree.Worksheets.Add(After:=wbkThree.Worksheets(wbkThree.Worksheets.Count))
wshDst.Name = "F"
wshSrc.UsedRange.Copy wshDst.Range("A1")
'G
Set wshSrc = wbkTwo.Worksheets("G")
Set wshDst = wbkThree.Worksheets.Add(After:=wbkThree.Worksheets(wbkThree.Worksheets.Count))
wshDst.Name = "G"
wshSrc.UsedRange.Copy wshDst.Range("A1")

Good luck!
