what is the name of the files ?

you can set several load statements for as many excel files you want

The simplest way is to have a seperate load statement for each file you wish to load.

You will need to decide whether your wish each file to go into a seperate table, or your may wish to concatenate or join them.  That all depends on the files and your needs.

this is how you can load files that have different fields

data:

LOAD ReportDate,

     CustomerID,

     [Sub-Region]

FROM

community\data.xls

(biff, embedded labels, table is Sheet1$);

158716:

LOAD inventorydate,

     cost1,

     units

FROM

community\158716.xlsx

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

this is how you can load files that share the same format but they have a date to difference them, in this example the name of the files are data 1.xls, data 2.xls, etc ..

data:

LOAD ReportDate,

     CustomerID,

     [Sub-Region]

FROM

community\data *.xls

(biff, embedded labels, table is Sheet1$);
