I have a file with multiple sheets and this is the header of sheets:

  • A B C D E
  • A B C D F
  • A B C D G
  • A B C D H
  • A B C D I

Is it possible to join the file with header A B C D E F G H I with macro or less tools?

Apologies! I believe I misunderstood your question. For combining different sheets that have different schema, this discussion and solution posted here may have what you are looking for:

Hi @meitata, is this what you are trying to achieve from the input source having multiple schemas?

Can you explain me what does File New in folder 2 contains? @grazitti_sapna

@meitata, it is just a file template that I used in the dynamic input tool for reference. It will be replaced with the filename passed outside the macro.

 

Thanks!
