Hello @Zaknafeein 

there are some weird problems when reading a xls-file. Maybe this file was also created by a 3rd party software.

So here some solutions to it

- try format your data as real table and then read the data from the table and not from the sheet

- try to open the file and save it as the same file once more

- save it as XLSX-file

If this post helps or solves your problem, please mark it as solution (to help other users find useful content and to acknowledge the work of users that helped you)
Kudoes are nice too

Have fun

Hi, here it is.

let
Source = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("F:\PowerBi\Web\OrderInfo\2009-08.xls"), null, true),
Orders1 = Source{[Name="Orders"]}[Data],
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Orders1,{{"Column1", Int64.Type}, {"Column2", type datetime}, {"Column3", type text}, {"Column4", Int64.Type}, {"Column5", type text}})
in
#"Changed Type"
