Transpose tables before combining

I have a folder with a growing number of files. How can I transpose each file, then combine them? Thanks!

 

File 1:

Date1/1/20231/2/2023
Amount$50$60

 

File 2:

Date1/3/20231/4/2023
Amount$70$80

 

Desired end result:

DateAmount
1/1/2023$50
1/2/2023$60
1/3/2023$70
1/4/2023$80

Use the Combine & Transform feature and in the transform sample query select your non-date column(s), right click and choose "Unpivot other columns".
