Extract Excel workbook filename
- 6 years ago
Hi Anonymous ,
I believe that you don't wnat to merge but append all workbooks, the best option is to use the From Folder option that creates a list of all your files in the folder and a function for you to use a file as a demo to make the treatment of the data, when you finalize the treatement you will have a column wiht the name of the file that you can then delete or keep.

Hi, thanks for that.
Initially that didn't work but it was because the sheets in each workbook had different names. It brings the data in now.
Is it possible to apply the same tranformations to each workbook before they are combined?
Cheers
Hi Anonymous ,
The concept behind this way of treat the data is exactly that, to have one file as standard transofrmation and all of the transformation will be applied to all files.
