Moderators Melba23 Posted July 2, 2014 Moderators Share Posted July 2, 2014 learn, the 1st and 2rd file are already existingI realise that - I used the first part of the code to simulate the files so that the data could be put into arrays for use. As I said in the comments, you would use _FileReadToArray to create the arrays directly from the files.

Moderators Melba23 Posted July 3, 2014 Moderators Share Posted July 3, 2014 learn,Did you actually read and understand what I posted above and to which I have since referred you several times? When you reply, please use the "Reply to this topic" button at the top of the thread or the "Reply to this topic" editor at the bottom rather than the "Quote" button - I know what I wrote and it just pads the thread unnecessarily.And I suggest you open a new thread about reading files into Excel - I do not use the specialist UDF written by water and so cannot really help.
