Good Day Everyone 

 

I have an issue merging multiple files in excel, Alteryx throws an exception that there is a mismatch between files and skips importing it. 

Here is the summary 

File 1:

Field NameType
Field 1 V_String
Field 2 V_String
Field 3 V_String
Field 4 V_WString

    

File 2:

Field NameType
Field 1 V_WString
Field 2 V_String
Field 3 V_String
Field 4 V_WString
  

 

File 3:

Field NameType
Field 1 V_String
Field 2 V_String
Field 3 V_String
Field 4 V_String
  

 

Thanks

Hi @Abhii2658 ,

 

You're on an old version of Alteryx, you need to update to a later version. I wrote this on 2021.2.

@Abhii2658 ,

 

save the two .yxmc files to your macro folder, then open the .yxmd file. That should work.
