read data from one of excel sheets

I have a Excel file (attached) with 2 sheets (or more), I have 2 workflows need to read from  sheet 1-62 and sheet 63-74 respectively. Is there a way to have these 2 workflows connect to the same data input tool with this same Excel file, but each workflow reads its own data sheet?

My understanding is that if the tools are in the same canvas, it is one workflow.
So maybe you are looking for chaining workflow?

Hi -  I think whatever you are trying to do can be accomplished with a batch macro which is called in two distinct workflows. In workflow one the control parameter tells it to find sheets 1-62 and in workflow two the control parameter tells it to use 63-74.
