Combining multiple xlsx files into one master file

Administrative Note:

Welcome to the forum.

We would very much like to help you with your query, however you need to include code tags around your code.

Please take a moment to add the tags. Posting code between tags makes your code much easier to read and copy for testing, and it also maintains VBA formatting.

Please see Forum Rule #2 about code tags and adjust accordingly. Click on Edit to open your post, then highlight your code and click the # icon at the top of your post window. More information about these and other tags can be found here

(Note: this change is not optional. As you are new here, I have done it for you this time.)

Why not just amend the data range, dataRangeStr = "A1:R250" after the first copy ... just change it to dataRangeStr = "A2:R250"

So, modify this

Thank you for that!

The problem is, the original workbooks are not all the same length, so when I make the change you suggest, it removes the repeating headers, but adds significant gaps of empty rows between the combined datasets in the master.

Also, was hoping to add an extra column for the original file names added to Master.

Thanks again!

You're welcome. Thanks for the rep.

Not aware that was mentioned in the OP and doesn't seem to be catered for in the current code.

I'd add the file name for the file on the first entry for each file (in the next available column) and gap fill at the end.
