    how to merge two excel files carries data from outsource

    ChatGPT

    To merge data from two Excel files, you can use various methods depending on your specific
    needs and the complexity of your data. Below are some common methods:

    Method 1: Copy and Paste

    1. Open both Excel files.


    2. Select the data you want to merge in the first file.
    3. Copy the data (Ctrl+C or right-click and select Copy).
    4. Switch to the second file.
    5. Paste the data into the desired location (Ctrl+V or right-click and select Paste).

    Method 2: Use Power Query (Excel 2016 and later)

    1. Open a new Excel workbook.


    2. Go to the Data tab.
    3. Select Get Data > From File > From Workbook.
    4. Import the first Excel file.
    5. Repeat the process to import the second Excel file.
    6. Once both files are loaded into Power Query, use the Append Queries option to combine
    them:
    o Go to the Home tab in Power Query.
    o Select Append Queries.
    o Choose the tables/queries you want to append.
    7. Close and Load the combined data back into Excel.

    Method 3: Using Formulas (e.g., VLOOKUP, INDEX-MATCH)

    1. Open both Excel files.


    2. Identify the key column(s) that will help you merge the data.
    3. In the second file, use VLOOKUP or INDEX-MATCH to pull data from the first file.

    Example using VLOOKUP:

    excel
    Copy code
    =VLOOKUP(A2, [FirstFile.xlsx]Sheet1!$A$2:$B$100, 2, FALSE)

     A2 is the lookup value in the second file.


     [FirstFile.xlsx]Sheet1!$A$2:$B$100 is the range in the first file.
     2 is the column index number to return the value from.
     FALSE indicates an exact match.

    Method 4: Using VBA (for more complex tasks)


    1. Press Alt + F11 to open the VBA editor.
    2. Insert a new module.
    3. Paste and modify the following code:

    vba
    Copy code
    Sub MergeFiles()
    Dim wb1 As Workbook
    Dim wb2 As Workbook
    Dim ws1 As Worksheet
    Dim ws2 As Worksheet
    Dim LastRow As Long

    Set wb1 = Workbooks.Open("C:\Path\To\FirstFile.xlsx")


    Set wb2 = Workbooks.Open("C:\Path\To\SecondFile.xlsx")
    Set ws1 = wb1.Sheets(1) ' Adjust sheet index or name as needed
    Set ws2 = wb2.Sheets(1) ' Adjust sheet index or name as needed

    LastRow = ws1.Cells(ws1.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row


    ws2.Range("A2:B" & LastRow).Copy ws1.Range("A" & LastRow + 1) ' Adjust
    range as needed

    wb2.Close SaveChanges:=False
    wb1.Save
    wb1.Close
    End Sub

    4. Modify the file paths, sheet names, and ranges as needed.


    5. Run the macro.

    Choose the method that best fits your needs and Excel skills. For simple tasks, copying and
    pasting might be sufficient, while Power Query or VBA is more suited for complex data merging
    tasks.
