Thanks. Any help is appreciated!

Thank you so much for the answer. I looked at the links you provide to me , but UNION() claim to have the same number of columns in both joined table. In my case I have a table of 9 columns, I want to append another column with a series of number.Here is example of table to demontrate:

NameLocation
MarryA
AidaA
JohnB
MgdalenaC
JohnE

Now I want to apend column called index at the end with series of numbers such as 1,2,3,4,5...
I know GENERATESERIES() can provide this series but then how I can add it to that table so that it become:

NameLocationindex
MarryA1
AidaA2
JohnB3
MgdalenaC4
JohnE5

Thanks

The question is not clear, please have a look at the UNION function:
