Combine multiple Excel files into one clean workbook with ChatGPT Codex, even when every file uses different column names.
Four regional teams sent the same quarter of data and none of the headers match. North America says subscriber ID, Europe says subscriber_id, Latin America just says ID, Europe reports in euros, and one subscriber appears twice. Instead of fixing that by hand I give Codex one instruction: merge all four into a master workbook with five clean columns, keep the earlier signup date when an ID repeats, move the loser to an exceptions tab, convert euros at a stated rate, and leave the original files untouched. Then I check the work. The exceptions tab shows the duplicate, 25 rows become 24, and the revenue totals add up across all four regions.
What you'll learn:
- Merging files whose column names do not match
- Handling duplicate rows with an exceptions tab instead of silent deletes
- Converting currency with a rate you state out loud so it can be checked
- Verifying the row counts and totals before you trust the output
If this saved you an afternoon of copy pasting, a like helps a lot.
