HI all,
I have an interesting issue. I get an Excel sheet with a list of 10 different Excel files (in 10 different folders).
The list is very simple - 3 columns.
Column 1 = the path to the Excel file (C";\\networkpath\xxxxx.xlsx)
Column 2 = the sheet name in the Excel File that I want (ie. ReportMe) since each workbook has multiple sheetsand I have to know which one is the one for the report
Column 3 = an identifier field - call it ListID
I have been experimenting with Functions and Parameters and am not quite getting what I need from this initial input.
What I want to get next is 10 separate queries (I am able to get to a point where they all append, but that is not quite right).
I want something like:
Query 1 = if ListID is "1" then go to the path and the named sheet in the original list and bring that sheet's results back
Query 2 = if ListID is "2" then go to the path and the named sheet in the original list and bring that sheet's results back
Query 3 = if ListID is "3" then go to the path and the named sheet in the original list and bring that sheet's results back
and so on up to query 10
So 3 variables in my mind - ListID, Path and SheetName
And some sort of invoke function to get that list.
I can't just hard code the 10 queries as the files, paths and sheet names will change.
Thanks for any help!
