    Power Query: appending with different number of pages

    Hi all,

    Question regarding to Power Query. I want to gather information from a PDF-invoice. Sometimes the invoice consist of 1 page and other times it has multiple pages. If I make a query based on two pages I receive an error when I change the source to a one-page invoice, using the appending function. Likewise when I use the 1 pager as starting point it doesn't gather the info of the second page.

    I came up with below syntax.

    *can't share the source-files because it contains company sensitive information*

    Administrative Note:

    We would very much like to help you with your query, however the thread title does not really convey what your request is about. Tell us what you are trying to do, not how you think it should be done.

    Please take a moment to amend your thread title. Make sure that the title properly explains your request. Your title should be explicit and not be generic (this includes function names used without an indication of what you are trying to achieve).

    Please see Forum Rule #1 about proper thread titles and adjust accordingly. To edit the thread title, open the original post to edit and then click on Go Advanced (bottom right) to access the area where you can edit your title.

    (Note: this change is not optional. No help to be offered until this moderation request has been fulfilled.)

    Administrative Note:

    We would very much like to help you with your query, however you need to include code tags around your code.

    Please take a moment to add the tags. Posting code between [code]Please [url=https://www.excelforum.com/login.php]Login or Register [/url] to view this content.[/code] tags makes your code much easier to read and copy for testing, and it also maintains VBA formatting.

    Please see Forum Rule #2 about code tags and adjust accordingly. Click on Edit to open your post, then highlight your code and click the # icon at the top of your post window. More information about these and other tags can be found here

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

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.
