Are all columns coming in, but your M code isn't handleing a 2 or 3 column table depending on the file? If so, check out this blog post. Removing/Selecting Columns - Pitfall #5 in #PowerBI and #PowerQuery - DataChant - particularly the MissingField.Ignore discussion.

Depending on the file (all have the same structure) it recognizes 2 or 3 tables.
