Hi, Im using Power Query in Excel. Is it possible to Get Data >> From File >> From Folder when the the sheet in each file has different names? I keep trying, but I don't get the return I expect ...

Hi UncleLewis ,
If you only have one sheet in each file, but they have different names, then you can replace the sheet navigation step like this:
// change your step that looks like this: Sheet = Folder{[Name = "Sheet Name"]}[Content] // to this: Sheet = Folder{0}[Content] // or this, depending on how you are importing the workbook: Sheet = Folder{0}[Data]You're basically just switching the hard-coded sheet name for any sheet that is at position 0 (the first sheet in a zero-base list) in the workbook.
