    Move column after another column with Power Query

    Hello all,

    I hope everyone is fine and healthy

    I have a small problem and maybe you can help me solve it.
    So everyday i receive an excel file that looks just like the attached one.

    What i want to do is to use Power Query (or any other method except copy paste), in order to move column C and D at the end of column A and B.

    Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

    Re: Move column after another column with Power Query

    In Power Query
    1. Load your table to PQ
    2. Remove columns C and D
    3. Open the left window of PQ where it says Queries
    4. Highlight your table and right click. Select Reference
    5. Delete all steps in the new table except source
    6. Change the name of the columns to the same as in the first table
    7. Append the second table to the first.
    8. Close and Load to Excel.
