Zack Barresse Thank you for your reply, I tried this but it wont let me overlap the table, and I don`t want to erase the table as I will loose al the related named ranges and formulas.

Zack BarresseThe query which is loaded as a table to the sheet is an appended query of two tables from the same sheet, when I make a copy of the sheet, the appended query which loads the data to the first sheet loads the data to the same table in the second sheet as well. So I duplicate all the queries and link them to the same tables on the second sheet, so now all the queries are identical and they receive their feed from their corresponding tables and sheet, I unlink the appended query table from the second sheet, so now the power query table from the second sheet is basically a table with headers. The next step is to link the second appended power query to the table on the second sheet without having to erase the table, the reason why I can not erase the table is because I have around 100 or so dynamic formulas referencing columns from this table, I have already tried to load, copy paste, erase and replace cells, as well as tried all the get data and edit connection properties options. But nothing works, the only option I see is to load the copied appended query to the second sheet and to correct all the ref errors on the formulas on the new sheet, which is a nightmare given that I need 10 copies of the same sheet in this workbook.
