consolidate multiple (188) tables, all formatted the same, into a single worksheet. The tables are A
I have a file that I want to consolidate into a single worksheet for purposes of analysis. It is in the form of 188 tables all formatted the same and of consistent size. The tables are columns A to DL and each is rows 8 to 59.
Can you suggest a formula or process to create the single sheet?

Ray_Nord -My two cents
- Power query is an ideal option!
- VSTACK formula also does the job here. Of course you need to adjust the range and sheet name.
=VSTACK(A1:A1,'S1:S4'!A8:DL59)- You can do it with the help of Command Prompt too!

VSTACK() assumes some logic in tables location, not only the same structure; or we have to pick-up somehow all 188 table names.

The tables are simply named "table 1, table 2, table 3" all the way to table 188
- SergeiBaklanDiamond Contributor
If we speak about structured tables perhaps Power Query is the easiest way. Start with blank query, add = Excel.CurrentWorkbook()
as the first step, if necessary uncheck other than 188 table names and expand the content.
