    Are you saying the 3 columns are in a different order on each workbook?

    Hi @lisha 

     

    It really depends on what approach you want to use:

    • Use a macro
    • Use Excel as a database source
    • Use PAD to open the files and copy and paste values to another workbook

     

    Here I'll assume you want the latter. In this case, I'm also assuming what you want is illustrated in the picture below:

    In this case, you can setup your flow as follows:

    Please notice I have two different Excel instances: one for the final file (%MergedExcel%) and the other temporary ones (%ExcelInstance%)
