I tested this using sample datasets I created where there was a variable removed, a variable added, and a variable name changed. Once I adjusted the LENGTH statement (the _header and _last_header variables were very long for my datasets) this worked perfectly. Thanks!

You need to modify your INPUT statement slightly and you can use EOV/EOF (end of variable or end of file) to indicate the end of a file. See this skeleton code here: https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Communities-Library/How-do-I-write-a-macro-to-import-multiple-text-files-that-have/ta-p/223627
