Combine files (binaries) in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

2.then load in
But  i dont kown what  the columns you want to use?

Or you connect excel to the row, and then merge the tables, but don't know which columns you want to use, which column do you put on the X axis and Y axis of your column chart?
