Combine Excel tables from one column but keeping another column data
Hi, I need to combine Excel files from a Sharepoint folder, these files sometimes having different column names. So I followed this tutorial : https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/7182/power-b...

I can see how you may want to avoid needing to explicitly call out which columns you want to expand.
One solution: add the [ProjetDalux] text values to your tables in [Personnalisé.Data] and then combine as you were before. Something like:
= Table.Combine( List.Transform( Table.ToRecords(#"Lignes filtrées"), (row) => Table.AddColumn( row[Personnalisé.Data], "ProjetDalux", each row[ProjetDalux], type text ) ) )Edit: changed from using Table.ToRows to Table.ToRecords as the latter will work regardless of column order.
