Hi,

Answering the question at time X is very easy. The problem will come as soon as the data will be modified, will evolve, will grow... The easiest way would be to use Power Query which will allow you to automatically retrieve the data from your files 1 and 2 and add them in file 3.

You could already see these two links:
