- In short
- Append Worksheets lets you pick the worksheets that share a column layout and stack them into one combined table. The header row is written once and the data rows are appended one sheet after another, starting at the output cell you choose. Source sheets are read but never altered; the output is a static copy, so rows added to the sources later do not flow in on their own.
What it is for
Append Worksheets is used to stack several selected worksheets into one table.
When to use it
Used when rolling monthly tabs into a single yearly table, consolidating branch or region sheets, or unifying a scattered source before building a pivot.
Example scenarios
- Combine same-structure monthly/branch sheets.
What it needs
≥2 selected sheet tabs + pick output cell; overlap refused, overwrite confirm, protected output refused. Supported data types: text, number, date (by selection).
How to use it
- Make sure the sheets to combine share the same column layout.
- Open Append Worksheets from the Combine and Get group on the XLMind Plus tab.
- Tick the sheets to include and pick the cell where the result should start.
- Confirm; the header is written once and the rows are stacked sheet by sheet.
What it produces
The data from the selected sheets is stacked starting at the output cell you pick, with the header added once.
Source data
The source sheets are unchanged; undo restores the previous output values.
How it differs from similar tools
It works without formulas and never touches the source range; the result is produced separately, so the original table keeps its formulas intact.
Good to know
Overwrite confirmation; confirmation for large operations. Protected cells refused; size limits (≥2 selected sheet tabs + pick output cell).
Limitations
Protected cells refused; size limits (≥2 selected sheet tabs + pick output cell).
Also
Column count, header and order are validated; on a mismatch the run stops with the source index and reason.
Frequently asked questions
- Where is the output written?
- The data from the selected sheets is stacked starting at the output cell you pick, with the header added once.
- What happens to invalid or unexpected values?
- Column-structure mismatch → nothing written + named source.
- Does the result stay linked to the source?
- The output does not track the source afterwards; a quick rerun brings it up to date.
- Any known limits?
- Protected cells refused; size limits (≥2 selected sheet tabs + pick output cell).
Works well with
- To stack separate tables that live on the same sheet, use Append Selected Tables
- To summarize the combined data, use Group By
- To clear in-cell repeats after combining, use Remove Duplicates in Cell
- To audit the quality of the combined table, use Data Profile
