Import Data from Folder with Files That Have Additional Headings

$

I need to import data from 2 groups of files that have the same structure EXCEPT 1 group of files has additional columns that I need.

 

Group 1 has 4 relevant data columns. Group 2 has the same 4 relevant data columns but it also 5 additional columns I need to import. Both groups have multiple files.

 

One a single day, where there is 1 file from each group, I can import each file and merge the contents into 1 grand table. I figure, but haven't tested, that I can import from two different folders and then merge aftewards; however, I prefer not asking the users to separate out the files into a group 1 folder and a group 2 folder. The ideal solution would be dumping all the files from both groups into 1 folder, importing, and letting the program merge the contents.

 

Thank you.
