kcvinu Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 (edited) You mean all data from multiple column into one column ?. If so, Declare a multidimensional array (If those files has uniformity in column numbers, it is easy to declare array) and read all excel files one by one. here is the pseudocode. 1. If all excel files are in a folder loop through them. 2. Read each column and fill the data in each dimension of array. 3. Open the output file and write all data in array to single column. Then empty the array. 4. Repeat this process. Edited October 24, 2016 by kcvinu Spoiler My Contributions Glance GUI Library - A gui library based on Windows api functions.

Raviteja Posted November 11, 2016 Author Share Posted November 11, 2016 Range read and range write is ok. In my app, need to access two columns having 1500 lines(rows) at a time. So it will increase my application area. So that's why I didn't prefer range read and write. Read cell and write cell functions I taken it from an UDF and that UDF is also found in this forum itself. Function is validating the column and rows. If both are valid it is going and reading/writing the cell. For write: $oExcel.Activesheet.Cells($sRangeOrRow, $iColumn).Value = $sValue For read: $sValue = $oExcel.Activesheet.Cells($sRangeOrRow, $iColumn).Value are the lines of code in write cell and read cell functions respectively. After reading approx 3000 cells it is throwing the below error $sValue = $oExcel.Activesheet.Cells($sRangeOrRow, $iColumn).Value$oExcel.Activesheet.Cells($sRangeOrRow, $iColumn)^ ERROR Using do while I tried to read it once again. But no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
