I found a VBA statement a while back that combines a sheet from several different excel files and it has worked great as long as the headers were in line 1 of the data.
I now have a set of work books where the headers is in line 7 and I've adjusted the statement so that it picks up the header in line 7 from the first file, but when looping I want it to pick up the 8th line.
What do I have wrong?

Code:
If lngIdx <> 7 Then
Set rngSrc = rngSrc.Offset(6, 0).Resize(rngSrc.Rows.Count - 1)
End If
Below is the entire statement:
