Hi

So, I have multiple workbooks (they are called: Human Resources, Science, Corporate Management, Public Affairs, .... I intend to add more). Each workbook has a sheet called: "Staffing-Processes". The data in each sheet has several rows (over 500 in some of them)

I would like to be able to copy that specific sheet, from each workbook, into one workbook - all into one worksheet.

The destination workbook is called: Master Database

I would like to be able to open the Master Database Workbook, "click" a command button and the Sheet ("Staffing-Processes") from each Workbook would copy to the Master Database - in the tab called "Master-Processes".

Can someone provide some assistance?

thanks
 
So the workbooks contain VBA code in a macro that protects the workbook from being opened ?
No…. There is no macro protecting the Workbook

If you click file at the top left, you can select to password protect the workbook requiring one to enter a password in order to open it. This method does not affect sheets or cells within the workbook itself

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
I created a scenario here that matches what you have on your machine. Tried using the previous macros I posted ... you indicated they worked for you except for a few changes that were needed.
I don't understand ... none of them worked here.

Did some more research online and enlisted the help of Microsoft with some sample macros they have posted on the internet. Surprise surprise ! The few macros I tried from them did not work
either. So I did what guys never do .... went out on the internet and asked for help.

The following works here ... flawlessly. I trued it will work for you as well. The MASTER workbook needs to be off by itself - don't place it in the same folder as all the other workbooks you are copying from.

The various workbooks you are copying from must not have a password.

VBA Code:
Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    ' Change folder path as needed, keep the trailing backslash
    Const sFolder = "C:\Users\gagli\OneDrive\Desktop\Test\"     '<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<   edit as required
   
    Dim sFile As String
    Dim mstWS As Worksheet
    Dim srcWB As Workbook
    Dim srcWS As Worksheet
    Dim t As Long, s As Long, srcNextRow As Long
   
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
   
    ' Target sheet
    Set mstWS = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1") ' or use ActiveSheet
   
    ' First available target row
    t = mstWS.Range("A" & mstWS.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
   
    ' Get first Excel filename in the folder
    sFile = Dir(sFolder & "*.xls*")
   
    ' Loop through the files
    Do While sFile <> ""
       
        ' Open source workbook
        Set srcWB = Workbooks.Open(sFolder & sFile)
       
        If Not srcWB Is ThisWorkbook Then       '   don't use this WB <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
       
            ' Refer to the first sheet
            Set srcWS = srcWB.Worksheets(1)
           
            ' Get the last used row
            srcNextRow = srcWS.Range("A" & srcWS.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
           
            ' Copy range
            srcWS.Range("A2:Z" & srcNextRow).Copy Destination:=mstWS.Range("A" & t)
           
            ' Increment target row
            t = t + srcNextRow - 2       '   <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< is this what you wanted
           
            ' Turn off clipboard
            Application.CutCopyMode = False
           
            ' Close source workbook
            srcWB.Close SaveChanges:=False
        End If
       
       
        ' Get next filename
        sFile = Dir
    Loop
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    MsgBox "Done"
End Sub
