Hello
Can i know if anyone experiene this? When you click on load and transform, the excel just connecting forever and never load?
Hi,
I am connecting to an external excel workbook.
On second event,
I already complete transform data then it shows nicely the view i need - saved it as A.xlsx in folder AA. I pull a new file B.xlsx into the same folder AA and refresh the A.xlsx but the table did not capture the new file B.xlsx information in it. Wondering why is it?
Hi @sueannwee
Sorry for the late reply. Did you succeed to resolve the first problem?
For the second question, I guess what you want is to get data from multiple files in a folder, so you can go to Get Data > From File > From Folder. After getting all files listed in a table, you need to combine them into a single query. Power Query can do this for you automatically, please refer to
Import data from a folder with multiple files (Power Query) (microsoft.com)
Power Query Get Files from a Folder • My Online Training Hub

Hi @sueannwee
Are you connecting to an external Excel workbook or connecting to the current workbook? Would this happen if you connect to a Text or CSV file?
