I'll set the scene..
We have a big ident list at work with around 1000 items on it. Each entry has a unique ID number. The list is split into 6 sheets because different people are responsible for looking after each one.
I need to do two things..
1. I need a combined list of all 6 sheets so that I can easily search and reference data with INDEX & MATCH etc.
2. I need to be able to add my own data to the end few columns.
I've managed to work out how to get power query to append all the sheets together onto one master list (I've also removed some of the columns I don't need). I was hoping that I could then simply add the columns onto the appended output for manual data entry from there but it doesn't seem to like it for some reason. I tried putting in some dates and it keeps removing them at random when I refresh the query.
Is there a way I can tell it to leave those few columns alone or something along those lines?
