Consolidate data

How can I combine worksheets

RE: Consolidate data

Hello Julia

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

You can combine worksheets together to produce a summary of data using the Consolidate feature in Excel.

Go to Data - Consolidate.

Select the function you wish to use (normally Sum).

In the Reference box, select the data range you wish to include in the summary, including headings for the data, from one sheet. Then click Add.

Repeat the above until you have selected all the data ranges you wish to combine together.

Tick the Use labels in Top Row and First Column options; and tick the Create Links to Source Data box if you wish to have the summary update itself.

Click OK.

Kind regards
Amanda

Excel tip:

Make macros work in newer versions of Excel

If you have created macros in Excel 97 or 2000 that you want to be able to use in 2002/XP or 2003, you may need to alter the macro security settings in the newer version of Excel you are using.

To do this, go to Tools - Options - Security.

Select Macro Security and change the security setting to Low.

Tick the boxes next to 'Trust Add-ins' and 'Trust Visual Basic' and click OK.

After you have restarted Windows, you should then be able to use your macros created in earlier versions of Excel.
