Excel Power Query

I have been given 12 monthly data sheets for a year. I want to load all 12 sheets through power query and make a single table which I will use in power pivot. Each sheet has a set of common data but each has some different columns so basically I would like to take the sheet with the most columns and use that as the basis to make a single table for all. How do I do this.

RE: Excel Power Query

Hi Paul,

Thank you for the forum question.

Please have a look at the the link below.

If you have SQL experience you can write a query in PowerPivot, which can do what you want.

I hope this can help you>

Kind regards
