These are meant for beginners. Once you checked how they work you will realize how inefficient they are, for example they use the "first" file as the blueprint for the column list of all the files - which may not be what you want. The also read that "first" file twice, for no good reason.
Replace them with your own, more streamlined code (via Table.AddColumn and Table.ExpandTableColumn) and then you can delete the groups.
