Hi Anonymous ,
Just point the source path for your existing RESULTS table to the new file:
File --> Options & Settings --> Data Source Settings
Thanks,

Hi Anonymous
Pragati11's reply is useful. I have a test by two Excel data.
Excel 1:
Excel 2:
Firstly get data from Excel1 and build a calculated column.
Column = AVERAGEX(FILTER(Sheet1,Sheet1[Name]=EARLIER(Sheet1[Name])),Sheet1[Quantity])Result:
Change the Data Source like Pragati11 replied before.
Select ok , and click Apply changes. Result is as below:
If you didn't delete the path of Source1, the result may go wrong.
If this reply still couldn't help you solve your problem, please show me more details about your issue screenshot, your data source path.
Best Regards,
Rico Zhou

Hi Anonymous,
No, the calculated columns will stay in Results and refer to table Results.
Do I understand correctly that you want to import new data from Excel into the same table? Do you want a separate table?

Yes, I'd like to overwright the data of the old table so that the calculating colums can result new output with the new data.

I've exactly done this! Having chosen a new source and refreshed again, it still updates the old Excel file although I've chosen a new path with a new name for the Excel sheet...
Anonymous , Then open the Power Query Editor (click on Transform Data), select the Result table, click Advanced Editor and see if the code still has the old or the new path to the file.

Why don't you just refresh the data in the first Results table?
If you have an Excel x.xlsx. You import data into Results table. Then, when you add / change data in the x.xlsx file, you don't need to import the data again. All you have to do is click the Refresh button and the data will automatically refresh in the Results table, and the next table will not be created.
