Merge worksheet code

I am using a merge code to consolidate data into single w/sheet. It works fine but when copying the data from the individual worksheets it overwrites on the last row that has a data, meaning I need it to allow a blank row before pasting the data.
Please advise how to fix.
Thanks

Try this

Code: 
'5.4: Copy data to the 'consolidated_data' WorkSheet       
SrcRng.Copy Destination:=DstSht.Range("A" & DstRow+1)
 
Can you try this:

Code: 
  '5.1: Find the last row on the 'Consolidate_Data' sheet
  DstRow = DstSht.Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 2
  If DstRow = 3 Then DstRow = 1
   
  '5.2: Find Input data range
  LstRow = fn_LastRow(Sht)
  LstCol = fn_LastColumn(Sht)
  EnRange = Sht.Cells(LstRow, LstCol).Address
  Set SrcRng = Sht.Range("A1:" & EnRange)
   
  '5.3: Check whether there are enough rows in the 'Consolidate_Data' Worksheet
  If DstRow + SrcRng.Rows.Count > DstSht.Rows.Count Then
  MsgBox "There are not enough rows to place the data in the Consolidate_Data worksheet."
  GoTo IfError
  End If
   
  '5.4: Copy data to the 'consolidated_data' WorkSheet
   
  SrcRng.Copy Destination:=DstSht.Range("A" & DstRow)

If this isn't right please explain in detail what is wrong ?
 
Your code was looking up the last row in Column A but there was more data in Column B.

Then just needed to add a blank row
and Check if first time and reset to Row 1 in that case
 
You will also see that I use a single line for determining the last row, rather than step through the file
Code: 
DstRow = DstSht.Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row

This is so much quicker and simpler and hence isn't put into a function
