    PowerQuery - Blank Query with Excel.CurrentWorkbook() not loading list of tables

    Hi all.
    Newbie here. When trying to do a blank query to combine existing tables in the current workbook I cannot get the function Excel.CurrentWorkbook() to correctly load the list of tables in the current workbook.

    All I'm getting is the standard header (Content and Name) with nothing listed.

    I did manage to load it correctly before but cannot seem to get it right now. Any ideas or any setting I may have changed inadvertently?

    thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the forum.

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook.

    Neither table has been made into a named range or converted to an Excel table, so PQ can't see them.

    Thank you. My bad. Clearly still quite a bit to learn about this tool.
