I need to load a month of CSV files into Excel for analysis via VBA. Each day of the month is a separate file with the date name (YYYYMMDD).
Currently, I can load two f
OK yes I am providing an answer to my own question....will work on getting the program for the suggested method.
Here is the code that is working (important bits only):
Dim all kinds of stuff
' Get the year and month of interest [User inputs the year and month they want the data analyzed YYYYMM
YY_MM = InputBox("Enter year and month of the daily cycles you want to analyze eg YYYYMM, no day, A_, B_ or _TC needed", target = D4, AI4)
'separate the YYYYMM date to YYYY and MM
F_year = Left(YY_MM, Len(YY_MM) - 2)
F_month = Right(YY_MM, Len(YY_MM) - 4)
'Determine # of days in the month 'The code below is from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa227538(v=vs.60).aspx and it saved me from an If than nest from hell
mMax = DateSerial(CInt(F_year), (CInt(F_month) + 1), 1) - DateSerial(CInt(F_year), CInt(F_month), 1)
'The user must say where their data is by listing the path on the worksheet. in this case it is a set template
sDataPath = Worksheets("Data").Cells(1, 4).Value ' value located in 1st sheet of workbook
For i = 1 To mMax 'OK this is the file insertion For the A
set of data files
If i < 10 Then ' Need to add a zero to get the correct file name
Z_singdig = "0" + CStr(i)
Else
Z_singdig = CStr(i)
End If
sDate = "A_" + YY_MM + Z_singdig + ".csv" ' looping through list of dates ..
'Label the data column with several file names so one can read it
Label_F_Name = sDate + "........................."
F_name = sDataPath + sDate
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;" + F_name, Destination:=Range("D1048576").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)) 'insert the next file at the bottom of the first

'report out the number of rows in each data file so I can use those as cell ref's later
numofrows = Application.CountA(Range("D:D"))
rownumout = numofrows - Corrtrow ' num of rows just added by the last file
rowprtinc = 30 + i
Numrowprt = "'data'!" + "DE" + CStr(rowprtinc)
Range(Numrowprt) = rownumout ' entring the number of rows into a table on sheet 2
Corrtrow = numofrows ' must track the current row num so the next row num can be corrected ...yeah that worked
Next i
' do the same for the B set of data files..not shown here
