Copy data from dynamically named source file into master file - excel

Question

I have a Master workbook (Consolidate Tracker) where we add data from Source file.
Consolidated Tracker and Source file have three tabs (Open Positions, Closed, Cancelled).
Every week I put data from Source file (from each tab) into the Consolidated file (to each tab).
For example: Open Positions data from Source file goes to Open Positions in Consolidated Tracker and so on.
I am facing the following issues:
I have to give full name of the files.
For example. Workbooks("Source*") is not working.
Is there a way to give only partial names?
My file name will have a date in the end. Hence I want to give *.
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(I) or ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Name") always goes for the Open Worksheet/Tab.
Pasting the output gives the following error.
Method PasteSpecial of Object Range Failed
Selection.EntireRow.Delete sometimes gives error or sometimes
doesn’t delete and again goes into For loop.
Also, it seems the loop is not taking the next tab.
Sub GetSheets()
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set objWorkbook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open("D:\2018\ VBA\Consolidated Tracker.xlsm")
Workbooks("Source_Tracker.xlsx").Activate
For I = 1 To 3
Set Sheet = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(I)
Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight
Range("A1").Select
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = Cells.Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
With Range("A1:A" & LastRow)
.Value = Date
.NumberFormat = "mm/dd/yy"
End With
Range("A1").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Selection.CurrentRegion.Copy
Workbooks("Consolidated Tracker").Activate
Set Sheet = Workbooks("Consolidated Tracker.xlsm").Sheets(I)
Range("A100000").Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
ActiveCell.PasteSpecial
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Select
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
Next I
End Sub

Consider this rewrite.
Option Explicit
Sub GetSheets()
Dim i As Long, lr As Long
Dim wb1 As Workbook, wb1 As Workbook
Application.Workbooks.Open Filename:="D:\2018\ VBA\Consolidated Tracker.xlsm", _
ReadOnly:=True, AddToMru:=False
setWbs wb1, wb2
With wb1
For i = 1 To 3
With .Worksheets(i)
.Columns("A:A").Insert Shift:=xlToRight
lr = Cells.Find(what:="*", after:=.Cells(1), _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
With .Range(.Cells(1, "A"), .Cells(lr, "A"))
.Value = Date
.NumberFormat = "mm/dd/yy"
End With
.Cells(1, "A").CurrentRegion.offset(1, 0).Copy _
Destination:=wb2.Worksheets(i).Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
End With
Next i
End With
End Sub
Sub setWbs(ByRef wkbk1 As Workbook, ByRef wkbk2 As Workbook)
Dim wb As Long
For wb = 1 To application.Workbooks.Count
Select Case left(LCase(Workbooks(wb).name), 7)
Case "source_"
Set wkbk1 = Workbooks(wb)
Case "consoli"
Set wkbk2 = Workbooks(wb)
End Select
Next wb
End Sub
