@binu_acs the error is does not match a sheet name or named range or the file is corrupted.

 

If I remove the space from the sheet batch macro reads that particular input file.

 

Many Thanks :)

Yeah, it doesn't work well with spaces within a Sheet Name. Glad you found the Macro and pre-steps useful!

Resolved by adding $ symbol at the end in sheet name formula.
