Hi Ibendlin,  sorry but I was reading and trying and the columns has to have the same name.

I know I can rename the columns but I have 50 tables with 48 columns each one, It is possible but it seems a bit inefficient  and difficult to maintain.

 

If you have a syntaxis to combine two tables with same structure but different columns name please share it!!
