Where do I open CashPilot Merge Excel?

Open cashpilottools.com/excel-merge. The Excel Conversion catalog lists it next to Split Excel. This blog URL is the combine-workbooks job, not merge PDF or merge Word.

Is this the same as merge PDF?

No. Merge PDF concatenates PDF files. Merge Excel concatenates workbooks. Wrong suite, wrong deliverable.

No. Merge Word combines .docx files in order. Spreadsheets stay on this URL.

Do I need matching columns?

The live FAQ: matching headers merge cleanest. If January and February use different column names for the same field, fix headers first or you will spend the afternoon unpicking columns.

What is the size cap?

Free up to 100 MB on the live card. Files over 100 MB need Premium (up to 500 MB), marked locked until payment is enabled. Confirm the cap if you read this later.

Do you keep my workbooks?

Processed for your request only; no permanent public library of uploads. Open the merged file once before you send it to a client.

Password-protected Excel?

The suite note: password-protected documents may need unlock first. Do not assume merge will ignore protection.

Merge Excel Workbooks Online: Sheets Stay, Files Combine

A merge Excel online free job is several .xlsx workbooks that should leave as one file—with sheets kept—not a PDF stack and not a Word merge.

Open it: Merge Excel.

This page is Workbooks-Then-Order. It is not Merge PDF online free. It is not Merge Word online free. Hub: CashPilot Free Tools.

Drop the workbooks in the order you want them stored, stay under the live size cap, merge, then open every sheet name before you email the master.

Disclosure: Merge Excel is our own CashPilot Tools product. Facts match the live Excel Conversion card as of this writing.

Workbooks-Then-Order

        WORKBOOKS-THEN-ORDER
  1. HEADERS → same names for the same fields
  2. ORDER   → upload in the sequence you want stored
  3. CAP     → under the live MB total
  4. MERGE   → one workbook, sheets kept
  5. OPEN    → every tab once before you send

Three monthly export files belong here. One PDF of signed pages belongs on merge PDF. A proposal plus an appendix in Word belongs on merge Word.

Catalog: Excel Conversion. Related cards on the tool page: Merge PDF and Split Excel.

If you only needed each sheet as its own file later, that is the opposite job: Split Excel. Merge first, split later, is a loop. Decide which deliverable the client named.

Name the output before you share: Client_Q3_combined.xlsx, not Book1.xlsx. Reviewers open the wrong tab when the filename is leftover Excel chrome.

Password-protected or corrupt workbooks can fail before a master appears. Unlock or re-save in Excel first. The suite note about scans and protection still applies.

If January uses Amount and February uses Amt, the merge will not fix your vocabulary. Align headers in a copy, then upload.

Sheet-name collisions are the other quiet miss. Two files that both contain Sheet1 do not become a story the client can audit. Rename tabs in the source copies (2026-01, 2026-02) so the master reads like a filing cabinet, not like Excel’s default chrome.

If one workbook is a lookup table and the others are monthly exports, say so in the email: which tab is the key. Merge does not write that note.

PDF and Word merge are different

Merge PDF concatenates PDFs. Merge Word concatenates DOCX. Excel to PDF changes format after you already have one workbook. If the email bounced because the file is huge, Compress Excel is the size job—not another merge.

Common misses

Uploading .xls (legacy) when the card asks for .xlsx. Re-save first.

Dragging PDFs onto Merge Excel. Wrong suite.

Merging two workbooks that both contain a sheet named Sheet1 and then wondering which numbers are which. Rename tabs before upload when names collide.

Emailing the master without opening it. One empty sheet from a failed file poisons the client’s morning.
