Load only some columns from excel (depends on their name)

Hi guys , stalwar1

How should I proceed to select certain fields from a source;

Example, I have a source with overs 200 columns;

I want to select the first 2 column and then select the columns that has a numeric name (which will be my years):

this is how I proceeded:

table:

load * 

FROM [lib://folder/Book1.xlsx]

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

Let vTotalFields = NoOfFields('table');

 

For i = 1 to vTotalFields

Let vVar$(i) = FieldName($(i) ,'table') ;

tableFinale:

Load

  "Commodity Name",

  "Commodity Code",

if(isnum( FieldName($(i),'table'))=-1 , FieldName($(i),'table'))  Resident table;

Next



But, this did not the trick.. if I rename it as year, I'll have my years; but I don't want that, I want to control the column name within the excel file and if it's a numeric, I load it , if it's not; I don't
