    Consolidation of workbooks in the same file to a single sheet in a master

    Hi, I have just developed an automated purchase order form that the users save in a daily folder, with a different file name of each new purchase order. What I need to do is to put certain information from selected cells of these forms into a summary workbook to provide the owner with a daily summary of orders made. I know it can be done, but the consolidation program I have is for a much more complex consolidation. Does anyone have a simple consolidation program that will just take information from certain cells and put in in a summary?

    Thanks Pike, I think I have found what I need. Just need to customise, which I think is not a friday job! Brain dead from 2 weeks of designing, developing and training users....

    Still batteling on. The 4 options don't seem to quite do it. Very frustrating! All I need it to do is to go to each file, select a certain sheet and copy 1 line to be pasted into a master sheet in the consolodation spreadsheet to create a list that will be totaled on the bottom line of the sheet. I must be missing something somewhere!

    Hi Pike, I have it almost working with one tiny problem, that defeats the whole purpose of the spreadheets! What I need it to do is to find the next row without data and select the cell in columnA and paste the values. Currently it just pastes in row 2 (I know it will be something to do with the "Range ("A2:A" & LR):

    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Sheets("Form accS2").Select
    Range("B2").Select
    Selection.Copy
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
    :=False, Transpose:=False
    Date = Range("B2").Value
    PO = Range("B9").Value


    Sheets("Form accS2").saveas Filename:="C:\Documents and Settings\Julie Anderson\My Documents\Dropbox\Beecham\Audi Central Coast WIP\Automation\" & Year(Now) & "-" & Month(Now) & "-" & Day(Now) & "_" & PO & ".xls"


    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1

    Sheets("Purchases").Select
    Range("A2:I2").Copy

    Workbooks.Open ("Draft Daily Tracking Spreadsheet.xlsm")
    Sheets("purchases").Select
    LR = Cells.Find("*", Cells(Rows.Count, Columns.Count), _
    SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
    Range("A2:A" & LR).EntireRow.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
    :=False, Transpose:=False

    Workbooks("Draft Daily Tracking Spreadsheet.xlsm").Save

    Very pleased to say I have finally solved my problem. Just had a total blank about it, and it was a fairly easy fix in the end (I hope this can help others out there). Both files need to be in the same folder:

    Sub dailyreport()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Sheets("Form accS2").Select
    Range("B2").Select
    Selection.Copy
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
    :=False, Transpose:=False
    Date = Range("B2").Value
    PO = Range("B9").Value


    Sheets("Form accS2").saveas Filename:="C:\(File Path)" & Year(Now) & "-" & Month(Now) & "-" & Day(Now) & "_" & PO & ".xls"


    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1

    Sheets("Purchases").Select
    Range("A2:I2").Copy

    Workbooks.Open ("Draft Daily Tracking Spreadsheet.xlsm")
    Sheets("purchases").Select
    NextRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row + 1
    Cells(NextRow, 1).Select
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
    :=False, Transpose:=False
    Workbooks("Draft Daily Tracking Spreadsheet.xlsm").Save

    End Sub
