Is there a way to stack dissimilar data?

I want to combine two streams with dissimilar data into a single final output excel sheet. I feel like this should be easy but it's eluding me. In excel I would use VSTACK to accomplish it.

Hi @marcus 

 

You could try a union tool and set it to auto configure the columns by position

Hi @marcus 

I guess Union Tool would server for the case.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Thank  you. Union does work, but II have to do a work around to add a blank line in between and the header of the second stream.
