Combine worksheets into one sheet

I have been searching for an hour and found little that can help me (outside of code that for some reason stops at the first blank row)...


What I want to do is:
1. Combine roughly 200 sheets (excluding the first sheet) into a "Master sheet"
2. I want to pull some data (ie Range "B23:HXXX" and "J23:OXXX") with The cells "B10" and "M3" in the columns adjacent (ie Paste the range in columns A:G and have B10 and M3 from each sheet be pasted in each row in column H and I.)



To try and word it differently;

The person who set up the workbook put data all over the place. It is similaly set up, but some groups of data had between zero and three merged cells on the left. That is why the ranges are different.

Also, I would like each sheet to copy first the right side, and then the left below that, then the next sheet etc.

Can someone help?

Select a hidden cell
Somehide hide payroll data in column G? Press F5. Type G1. Enter. Look in formula bar while you arrow down through G.
This code - from http://www.experts-exchange.com/A_2804.html - will merge all the sheets into 1

Please run it with your file to be merged closed as it will prompt you to select it during the code
