Hi
Please view the two screen-shots below.
I am trying to keep the column shown in the top screen but lose it when I convert to table.
Any assistance will be appreciated.
Thanks, Mark.

You need to edit the query "Download" with a reference to your local drive
You just have to decide whether to join the tables in the query-editor, which would create one big monster-table, or create a data model, which would be the more professional approach.

Hi @sunildatalytyx ,
if the fields are not included in the first 1000 items of the expanded content, then they will not show up.
In that case you have to add them to the M-code manually.
Imagine the automatic expansion had just found "PRN", then you'd add SNR like shown below:
Simply add them to the list with commas as separators.
