Hi,

I am importing data from a website that has the exact table(s) layout even if URL changed but the same layout still exist.

For example these URLs include different information but the layout is the same:

https://www.gsmarena.com/apple.....-11089.php

https://www.gsmarena.com/apple.....-11102.php

https://www.gsmarena.com/apple.....-11103.php

I am repeating a lot of steps and wondering if I can automate or redo it automatically.

For example when I load data I get this page:

Image Enlarger

So, I am always selecting the same exact tables whatever was the URL because all URLs has the same layout.

So after I select the tables I am doing some steps on each table, like add some columns, delete some rows ...etc.

so how to repeat it and do it automatically?

Thanks

Build  your first query.  In the left window, click on duplicate.  Then change the source in the second query.  Repeat for each query.
