Can I still use similar code to the below if headers are different on different sheets and also the Friday is different from other 4 days of the week in every sheet. Data is coming from an excel file with different sheets. However although headers are almost the same, the first 3 sheets have 1 less column. For example, first 3 sheets will have: MA(arrival),MR(reading),M1(lesson1),M2,MB,M3,M4,ML,M5,M6,ME,MD and the remaining sheets have MA,MR,M1,M2,M3,MB,M4,M5,ML,M6,M7,ME,MD. Also, Fridays looks differentfrom other days of the week for everyone: FA,FR,F1,F2,FB,F3,F4,FL,FF,FA,FO.
Trying to have a timeline with lessons and sessions in the right order.
Will I be able to still create something like this? Or due to the different headers won’t be possible?
Help appreciated. I’m stuck here.
Thanks,

How can I send a sample without the column "name"? Thats the only column with sensitive information
Remove that column before posting the data.

You need the data sheet where the data is or the pbix file? Because I have several other sensitive data on linked to the pbix. I will send you the excel
Hi @VDS9 ,
You can provide some raw data in your tables(exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples just as suggested by Ibendlin. It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following link to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.
