    Dear Ashish, I was searching the youtube for any possible solutions to combine multiple worksheets which contains same number of columns and infinite rows. In one of the videos, I could see that I need to have an unique cell for me to combine. Unfortunately I could not create an unique cell, but was on the look out, then your video was in hand. That was wonderful Ashish. I could quickly learn the MS SQL Query method and worked well for me. Thank you and I appreciate your efforts in educating.

    Thanks for the great Video. This is exactly what I was looking for today..you saved my day. I would like to understand whats the purpose of creating Dummys as well as table-names? and how are they related?

    • @excelenthusiasts
      @excelenthusiasts  7 лет назад

      You are welcome. When you create a Table, excel assign it a name automatically. Converting the range to a Table is necessary because this takes care of auto expansion. Table names cannot be used in MS Query and that is why we assigned a name called Dummy. Hope this clarifies.

    Hi Ashish, by far the best video on this topic - hands down!!!
    May I bounce off a idea/question to you?
    I have 4 files with the same table structure of data. I (1.) created an named range and then (2.) a table of the name range.
    Using your method, I "queried" the 4 files/4 tables on 4 sheets in a new workbook in order to combine the 4 sheets on one (new) sheet.
    I now have the issue that I have 4 tables (2.) created before I created 4 named ranges (1.).
    (On creating the MS Query link the resulting table is MS table name Table_Query_from_Excel_Files)
    When I now combine the 4 tables into 1, MS Query cannot find tables in the this workbook. Is there something to the order of executing Step 1. and 2. in this order?
    I went and took the 4 system tables pointing at each sheet (paying attention to the '$' at the end of each system named element)
    Could I have gone straight from 4 files to one table w/o the intermittent step of 4 tables in one workbook?
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Cheers
    Dirk

  • @TheOndricek
    @TheOndricek 9 лет назад

    Very helpful! Thank you for uploading. May I ask what was the point of naming the ranges prior to creating the tables? Could you just rename the tables from Table1, Table2, and Table3 instead and pull from that? Or does Microsoft Query not pick up on Table names?

    • @excelenthusiasts
      @excelenthusiasts  9 лет назад

      Nathan Ondricek Thank you. Neither can one rename the default Table Names nor can one use them in MS Query.

    Wow.. I can make a Pivot Table out of data now. Thank you for making this video.
    Initially, I had faced problem creating PivotTable because one of my worksheet name is "DB2", which is a cell number.
    First, table name was not appearing on available tables. So, I had to select "System Table" from Query Wizard option and picked "DB2$" as table name. And, during union I had to double quote the table name else it gives syntax error.

  • @user-fi6sb6ey1c
    @user-fi6sb6ey1c 7 лет назад

    Thank you for sharing this great work. I have 3 worksheets and I wanted to create a pivot tab which consolidate the data from the 3 worksheets. I followed all the steps as described in your video, and everthing went well. except at the end when I created the pivot tab. In fact it won't sum the values; instead it's giving me zero values...despite having numbers in all worksheets. Would appreciate if you can help me out with this one. THanks

    • @excelenthusiasts
      @excelenthusiasts  7 лет назад

      You are welcome. Thank you for your kind words. Ensure that the first cell of every column which you have dragged to the value area section of the Pivot Table has a number in each source data worksheet. Then click on Refresh. If this still does not work, then share the link from where I can download your workbook.

    • @user-fi6sb6ey1c
      @user-fi6sb6ey1c 7 лет назад

      Hi, Thank you for your reply. All my data source sheets have numbers, but still not working.
      In the same time I have noticed something strange, actually when I double click on the pivot tab total for the data to get the details, in the column that has the numbers...the format of the numbers is coming as Standard/ General format and even if I change it to numbers it's not being actually converted, and when I select multiple cells excel is just counting the number of items and doesn't sum the values. So I guess there is a formatting issue here. but I'm sure my numbers in the data source are stored as numbers.
      How can I share my workbook privately with you? Thanks

    • @user-fi6sb6ey1c
      @user-fi6sb6ey1c 7 лет назад

      I just realized one more thing after I double clicked on the pivot tab total, in the details the numbers of one the worksheets are somehow converted to date and time figures!!! not sure why?

    • @user-fi6sb6ey1c
      @user-fi6sb6ey1c 7 лет назад

      Hi Ashish, never mind, I cleared off all the previous formatting of the entire data source and then reworked it. and repeated the same steps and it's working just fine now. Thank you for your help. Have a great day.

    Nice information. Just a thought. Can't we change SQL statement via testing IsNull function to replace null values with zero. That will eliminate problem of adding superficial 0 we added in the spreadsheet.

    • @excelenthusiasts

    Hi Anshish,
    Thanks for this video. It will really be great if this works for my data. I followed all the steps till the SQL statements. I get the message that "The number of columns in the two selected tables or queries of a union query do not match".
    I have 91 columns and between 200 and 5000 rows in each table (5 of them) and they are all created from the same shell. I have even copied and re-pasted the column names from the first table to all the others and manually checked them but I still get the same error. Are my columns too much or what could be the problem?

    • @excelenthusiasts
      @excelenthusiasts  6 лет назад

      You are welcome. I cannot say. If you are absolutely sure that the number of columns in both datasets is the same, then it looks like there is a "number of columns" limitation. The best approach would be to use Data > Get & Transform to aggregate data from multiple worksheets into a single one.

      Hi. This technique will work only for upto 65,000 rows of data per worksheet. You may split the rows into 2 worksheets and then it will work fine. An even better option is to use the BI tools of Excel, namely PowerPivot and Data > Get & Transform.

    Hi Ashish,
    Just a query, under pivots i can group a field to Months and week as well (days and set the index to 7) but if i require to group the data based on weeknum,how could i do it (like Wk 41). Using days in group will show the date range as 1/1/1990 to 8/1/1990 but i want to show Weeknumber.
    Need to do that in Pivot only else i could have done adding 1 extra column in data and putting there the weennum formula but if i have the huge data spanning across differnt sheets, adding a column is big pain and time consuming as well. Any suggestions. Please mail me if question is not clear

    May I know if there is table row limitation for MS query? I opened From MS query but don't see the table (76490 rows in the excel file) that I've created?

    • @excelenthusiasts
      @excelenthusiasts  7 лет назад

      Hi. I think the number of rows per Table in MS Query is 65,000. Break that table into 2 tables and see if it works. A much better technique would be to use Power Query and PowerPivot.

      Hi,I do not know why that is happening. From similar comments posted by other users in the Comments of RUclips and my webpage, I understand that this problem happens when one "first converts to a table and then assigns a name". It should actually be to "first assign a name and then convert to a table". I cannot think of any other reason why this is happening.

    Hi Ashish, i have select 2 source tables with blank rows (in future I may add data into that)..now the pivot table which i created using ms query also has blank rows..because of this my pivot charts also has extra blanks..how can I eliminate this

    • @excelenthusiasts
      @excelenthusiasts  7 лет назад

      Hi. Do not have blank cells in your data source initially. Since you have converted the source dataset into a Table, the rows will expand automatically as and when you add further rows.

    Hi Ashish, I'm getting zero values even though there doesn't seem to be any blank cells. The data set is very large though and it's difficult to check if indeed there are empty cells but when I select the column, it does give me a sum. Can you please help?

    • @excelenthusiasts
      @excelenthusiasts  7 лет назад

      Ensure that the first cell of every numeric column of all sheets has a value of 0. Then Refresh the Pivot Table.

I click cancelled. but it shows me the boxes of 12 month with all the field name and the * at the top. i clicked the SQL icon and applied the union all formula with the 12 tables name.

    Hi Ashish,
    Thanks for this, i have a huge data of nearly 13 lakhs lines split in to 2 sheets (Excel 2010) named the range as "half1" and "half2", trying to do the same as shown in the video, while trying get the data from other excel the range name is not appearing but coming as "sheet1$" and "Sheet2$", i am able to see the data getting imported, when i try to add them in to one using "union all" function i am getting an error saying could not add "half1".
    My question is is there any limit for the range since i have taken nearly 7.5 lakhs lines per sheet, to cross check i have tried with very small numbers in each sheet about 10k lines, the Pivot worked.
    Could you please suggest any other way to draw a pivot for the huge data (YTD I will be getting nearly 15 lakhs lines).
    Thanks in advance

      Hi,
      Using Microsoft Query, you will not be able to breach 65,000 rows of data per worksheet because Named ranges can only for upto 65,000 rows. The solution would be to use Microsoft Query.
