Loading multiple excel files by incrementing the months

Hello

I need to load multiple excel files . The files are named exactly the same with the only difference being that the month is incremented. eg.

H2H and FLU Low Level MI - Mar 2015.xlsx..So for subsequent months it becomes the following and so on till 2016 April.

H2H and FLU Low Level MI - Apr 2015.xlsx'

H2H and FLU Low Level MI - May 2015.xlsx'

H2H and FLU Low Level MI - Jun 2015.xlsx'

Is there a way to use a loop and increment the months it make it easier?

Difficult to say, but you can try this. Also make sure File Type is XSLX

LOAD

FROM

[H2H and FLU Low Level MI*.xlsx];
