Hi,
I have data on seven worksheets, examples below:
[TABLE="width: 299"]
<colgroup><col><col><col span="2"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]

I need to consolidate this data in a way that same name and mobile number come together. For example, in below consolidated sheet, Sara has same contact number like Richard so Sara is reported with Richard and Richard's both entries are coming together.
[TABLE="width: 299"]
<colgroup><col><col><col span="2"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="colspan: 2, align: left"]
Desired result

Hi SIFS,
The below macro assumes that each worksheet to be processed has the text "Name" in cell A1.
The macro creates a worksheet named "Merged Data" and sorts it using generated a sort key created in column A:
Code:
Option Explicit
Const MergeSheetName As String = "Merged Data"

Sub MergeSheets()

Dim dicMergeData As Object

Dim lEndRow As Long
Dim lEndCol As Long
Dim lColPtr As Long
Dim lRowPtr As Long
Dim lMergePtr As Long

Dim rFrom As Range
Dim rTo As Range
Dim sKey As String
Dim sSearchKey As String
Dim sSearchItem As String

Dim vaCurSheetData As Variant
Dim vaMergeData As Variant

Dim wsCur As Worksheet
Dim wsMerge As Worksheet

On Error Resume Next

On Error GoTo 0

For Each wsCur In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
    If wsCur.Name <> MergeSheetName Then
        If wsCur.Range("A1").Value = "Name" Then
        
             Application.StatusBar = "Processing worksheet '" & wsCur.Name & "'"
             
             With wsCur

                    lEndCol = .Cells(1, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
                End If
