I need to extract multiple csv file by Power query , but i don't need top 6 lines from each csv file. I need only column header and respective data which start from line 7.

I am using following functions but rest of data showing as an error

Csv.Document([Content])
Table.PromoteHeaders([Custom])

Pivot Table Drill Down
Double-click any number in a pivot table to create a new report showing all detail rows that make up that number
Try this:

In the left pane of your Power Query editor, you should have an item that says "Transform Sample File".

Select that and then go Home > Remove Rows > Remove Top Rows > enter a number of rows - 6 in this case.

Go back to the Main Query under Other Queries before promoting the header.

You might need to log this as a separate query and if you provide the link I can have a look.

Step 1 is to see if you can figure out which of you csv files is causing this (or at least one of them), then open it in Notepad and try a Find for the = sign.
If its in the csv file then Power Query will bring it in the way it is and you need to address it at the source (creation of csv file stage)

If you can't work it out from that then we need some sample data that is causing the problem to work with.
