      After combining the data (vertically) you can transpose or pivot it to make it horizontal. I'd be able to tell precisely only if I see that data.

    THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!

    • @GoodlyChandeep
      @GoodlyChandeep  4 года назад

      I don't think there is a limit on the number of workbooks but it depends on the memory of your machine (computer). Power Query might give an error if there are far too many workbooks.
      I have seen people easily combining 200 to 300 workbooks with no sweat.
      Hope that helps!
