  • This may be useful if you need to run reports (such as a crystal report) based on the data – where you need the data to be in a single file. Option 1 – CSV files without a header row. The following single command line will combine all CSV files in the folder as a single file titled ‘combined.csv’ copy.csv combined.csv.

What you can obtain:
  • Text files with a standard content each personalized with custom data, name, address, email, products and others
  • Configuration files, each using the same form with different domain name, email, IP, and saved with a different name
  • Configuration files organized in complex folders structures, each inside a different folder named as a custom UUID with 2 text inside named with a standard name but with different content inside obtained form records values from the table
  • Complex code structures in python (or any other language) realized combining values in a table with a repetitive algorithm, all in one file
  • Web sites with pages with all the record inside a single page (index) and additionally a page for any records in the data table saved inside directory named as a field value for any records and linked from the index (Yes you can generate a full working web site using Data Merge)
  • A group of file each containing for some fields all the data in the data table
  • Fast code generator copying the result from preview without saving to disk

Why Would You Want to Use It?
  • Doing what Data Merge can do by hand is time-consuming and full of error
  • Creating folders and nested folders and nested files all with custom name and custom content inside, all with different values, it's not a job for humans, but often there is no alternative because the structure we need to generate is too complex and there is not an automation tool made for it and creating a custom one will be too expansive
  • With Data Merge you can do all you can do by hands combining data with forms and paths, except you need few seconds and not weeks of work
  • No need to writing a single line of script
  • If you need often to merge data and structure combining them to obtain simple or complex results, Data Merge is the universal tool made for you

Often we face the challenge of having to merge csv files or txt files in a folder, into a single file. Excel is the obvious tool for such tasks and today I will show a couple of easy ways for merging multiple files, in a single or even a whole structure of folders, into a single CSV or text file. To merge csv files or other text files it is often best to use Visual Basic for Applications in Excel.

Other VBA File resources

Let’s start with the simplest approach using Windows Command line without having to use Excel.

Merge CSV files using Windows CMD

This approach uses the Windows Command line Copy command.

Open the folder which should contain your CSV or TXT files

Open in Windows Explorer the folder containing CSV or TXT files to be merged. These should be without headers or only the first file should be with headers.

Open CMD command line within folder

Merge Csv Files Mac Free Downloads

Click on the filepath of the Windows Explorer window and type cmd and hit ENTER.

Merge the files using COPY command

The CMD Windows command line Window should open. Type the following command and hit ENTER to merge files


The result will be the newly created merge.csv file with merged data across all CSV files within the directory.

Simply replace *.csv with *.txt to merge text files instead of CSV files

Merge list of csv, txt files

The previous method was very simple and didn’t require the use of Excel or MS Office. The below and the following approaches will provided you with more flexibility when merging files. If you don’t know how to use Macros in Excel read my Tutorial first.

Assuming you want to merge a list of files in a String Array you can use the procedure below. It will merge all provided csv or text files into a single new text file.

Merge csv, txt files example

See an example below of how to use the MergeFiles procedure:

MergeFiles Parameters

fileNames()
Array of Strings representing full file paths to files that are to be merged

newFileName
The name of the new merged file that is to be created

headers
Optional. True by default. This is meant for CSV TXT files (HDR). If True assumes that all files have headers (first row with columns). Only first header will be merged into the new file (newFileName)

addNewLine
Optional. False by default. If True a new line (vbNewLine) character will be added between each merged file

Merge csv, txt files within specified folder

Another case is when you want to merge all csv files within a single folder. This procedure is similar to the previous one with the exception that it runs through all files within a single directory (excluding subdirectories – for that scroll to next procedure). You can also use wildcards such as “*.csv” to be sure that only csv files are merged a not other files – read my post on the VBA Dir function to learn more.

Merge csv, txt files in folder example

See an example below of how to use the MergeFilesInFolder procedure:

MergeFilesInFolder Parameters

folderName
A folder including all files to be merged. Wildcards are permitted if supported by the VBA Dir function

newFileName
The name of the new merged file that is to be created

headers
Optional. True by default. This is meant for csv files (HDR). If True assumes that all files have headers (first row with columns). Only first header will be merged into the new file (newFileName)

addNewLine
Optional. False by default. If True a new line (vbNewLine) character will be added between each merged file

Merge csv, txt files within all subfolders

How To Merge Jpg Files Into One

The most complex case is when you want to merge files not only within a certain directory but also within all subdirectories. This will equally work for a scenario when there are no subfolders.

Read this post to learn more on using the VBA Dir function to traverse directories and subdirectories

Merge csv, txt files within subfolders example

See an example below of how to use the MergeFilesInSubFoldersprocedure:

MergeFilesInSubFolders Parameters

Merge Csv Files Mac Terminal

folderName
A folder with or without subfolders including all files to be merged. Use wildcards with pattern parameter

Merge Multiple Csv Files Into One File

pattern
If needed a pattern using wildcards permitted by the VBA Dir function

newFileName
The name of the new merged file that is to be created

headers
Optional. True by default. This is meant for csv files (HDR). If True assumes that all files have headers (first row with columns). Only first header will be merged into the new file (newFileName)

addNewLine
Optional. False by default. If True a new line (vbNewLine) character will be added between each merged file

Merge CSV files – filter records

Sometimes we want to download just a subset of records in our CSV files. One way is uploading the data and then filtering it in Excel. But why not do it in one go? See my SQL AddIn or my read CSV file using SQL example in this post here.
