    I don't know how exactly your data is structured, for that better to have sample file. Assume you have two structured tables, they could be in different sheets. If ranges, you may convert them to tables by Ctrl+T or use named ranges. Something like this

    To join these tables you may use formula as

    =LET(
  rowsOne, ROWS(Table1),
  rowsTwo, ROWS(Table2),
  c,       SEQUENCE(,COLUMNS(Table1)),
  hMerge, LET(
   k, SEQUENCE(rowsOne+rowsTwo),
   IF(k<=rowsOne,
      INDEX(Table1, k, c),
      INDEX(Table2, k-rowsOne, c))
 ),
 SORT(hMerge)
)

    and instead of Table1, Table2 use names of your actual tables or ranges.

Thank you Sergei! How would I know if my version of Excel supports dynamic arrays? I'm sorry, I'm not very experienced with those areas of Excel.

        Thank you Sergei.  I have included the file here.  Each additional sheet will have the same rows/columns.  There will be more sheets added in the future.
