Hello to all,
May someone help me to do this?
I have more than 120 columns with headers like Column1, Column2,...ColumnN.
I want to rename the first 10 headers with values in Row6 from column 1 to 10 and rename the rest of headers with values in row 9 from column 11 to colum 120.
Can be done with a kind of loop or only using a hardcoded list within Table.TransformColumnNames(List)?
Thanks for any help

@cgkas seems like i have a solution for this but would like to know what happens to row 6 and row 9, it still stays there, right, even thou the value from these rows becomes header.

Hi @parry2k ,
Actually, after rename the original headers I'd like to remove rows 1 to 9. So will remain new headers and rows 10 to the end.
Thanks for the help
