Does anyone have an idea how this can be solved.
I need to copy data from tables that are located in several different documents and folders and compile them into one table in a main document. * The tables will have a different number of rows but have the same number of columns. * Only to copy the rows that have yes to second column (if possible) Is deeply grateful if someone can send sample code for this Example below should present tables From document 1 ID1 | yes | Text ID2 | no | Text From dokument 2 ID3|yes|Text ID4|yes|Text ID5|no |Text From document 3 ID6|no |text ID7|yes|text main document to be copied to ID1|Yes|text ID3|yes|text ID4|yes|text ID7|yes|text Sincerely Svein Last edited by adisl; 03-24-2014 at 03:18 AM.

Try the following. It should work with any number of columns. Although there's nothing in the code to ensure all rows end up being the same width, that won't matter if they are in fact the same width. The macro you run is the top one: "Main"; it includes its own folder browser and will process all files in the selected folder and the folders below it. It also outputs a report of any files it can't process because of protection and the like.
Code:
Option Explicit
Public FSO As Object 'a FileSystemObject
Public oFolder As Object 'the folder object
Public oSubFolder As Object 'the subfolders collection
Public oFiles As Object 'the files object
Public i As Long, j As Long
Public DocTgt As Document
Sub Main()
' Minimise screen flickering
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim StrFolder As String
' Browse for the starting folder
StrFolder = GetTopFolder
If StrFolder = "" Then Exit Sub
' Initialize the counters
i = 0: j = 0
' Search the top-level folder
Set DocTgt = Documents.Add()
Call GetFolder(StrFolder & "\")
' Search the subfolders for more files
Call SearchSubFolders(StrFolder)
' Return control of status bar to Word
Application.StatusBar = ""
' Restore screen updating
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
MsgBox i & " of " & j & " files processed.", vbOKOnly
End Sub
Function GetTopFolder() As String
GetTopFolder = ""
Set oFolder = CreateObject("Shell.Application").BrowseForFolder(0, "Choose a folder", 0)
If (Not oFolder Is Nothing) Then GetTopFolder = oFolder.Items.Item.Path
Set oFolder = Nothing
End Function
Sub SearchSubFolders(strStartPath As String)
If FSO Is Nothing Then
Set FSO = CreateObject("scripting.filesystemobject")
End If
Set oFolder = FSO.GetFolder(strStartPath)
Set oSubFolder = oFolder.subfolders
For Each oFolder In oSubFolder
Set oFiles = oFolder.Files
' Search the current folder
Call GetFolder(oFolder.Path & "\")
' Call ourself to see if there are subfolders below
SearchSubFolders oFolder.Path
Next
End Sub
Sub GetFolder(StrFolder As String)
Dim strFile As String
strFile = Dir(StrFolder & "*.doc")
' Process the files in the folder
While strFile <> ""
' Update the status bar is just to let us know where we are
Application.StatusBar = StrFolder & strFile
Call UpdateFile(StrFolder & strFile)
strFile = Dir()
Wend
End Sub
Sub UpdateFile(strDoc As String)
Dim Doc As Document
' Open the document
Set Doc = Documents.Open(strDoc, AddToRecentFiles:=False, ReadOnly:=False, Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto, Visible:=False)
With Doc
If .ProtectionType = wdNoProtection Then
Call GetTableData(Doc)
' Update the file counter for processed files
i = i + 1
Else
' Output a 'protected' file report in the document from which the macro is run.
ThisDocument.Range.InsertAfter vbCr & strDoc & " protected. Not updated."
End If
' Update the main file counter
j = j + 1
.Close SaveChanges:=False
End With
' Let Word do its housekeeping
DoEvents
Set Doc = Nothing
End Sub
Sub GetTableData(Doc As Document)
Dim Tbl As Table, i As Long, Rng As Range
With Doc
For Each Tbl In .Tables
For i = 1 To Tbl.Rows.Count
Set Rng = Tbl.Cell(i, 2).Range
Rng.End = Rng.End - 1
If Rng.Text = "Yes" Then
Set Rng = Tbl.Rows(i).Range
DocTgt.Characters.Last.FormattedText = Rng.FormattedText
End If
Next
Next
End With
End Sub
