Hi, I am trying to create a new table from an excel file. I want to Load Cols From File but I want the second tab in the excel file. It keeps on pulling in the first tab. How do I get the second tabs columns?

Thanks.

That’s not an option. Easiest solution would be to rearrange the tabs in your excel file so that the tab you want is first.

I usually copy the tab I want into a new excel with data in only one tab

Is an option not provided in the Import wizard to select the excel columns to map to table columns?

Yes there is such an option in Import Table Data Wizard, but that’s not what the question was about.
