What does that mean? What part needs to be repeated? Vague requirements = vague answers.

I mean I have a thousand data set like this. Without macro, I will need to run this code on each of the data set, right?

 

Eventually I will need macro.

Then you may want a macro, I still think appending the data sets is a better idea. 

 

Wrapping it in a macro is a trivial exercise, that I strongly suggest you try yourself and use CALL EXECUTE to call it 1000 times. The example in the documentation is all you would need to expand it to your own case here.
