Dim wsDestination As Worksheet
Dim lCopyLastRow As Long
Dim lDestLastRow As Long
Set wsCopy = Workbooks("Excel-VBA-Copy-Range-to-Another-Sheet (1).xlsm").Worksheets("Dataset2")
Set wsDestination = Workbooks("Book1.xlsx").Worksheets("Method 8")
lCopyLastRow = wsCopy.Cells(wsCopy.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
lDestLastRow = wsDestination.Cells(wsDestination.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1).Row
wsCopy.Range("B5:D" & lCopyLastRow).Copy wsDestination.Range("B" & lDestLastRow)
End Sub

We declared the Sub procedure Copy_Range_to_Last_Row_of_Another_Workbook where wsCopy and wsDestination are Worksheet type, lCopyLastRow and lDestLastRow are Long type.

We used Set to set variables for the sheet to copy and the destination sheet.
We used the Row method to find the last row based on the data of column B in the copy range.
We used the Row method to find the first blank row based on data of column B in the destination range and also used Offset to move down one property.
This will Copy the data of the Dataset2 sheet from the Excel VBA Copy Range to Another Sheet 1.xlsm workbook to the destination Sheet1 of workbook Book1.xlsx.
