I have a query I am running, and I want to put the end result into a table. When I do that PQ keeps adding extra columns to my data that I do not want shown such as Month and Month Index. I do not understand why it is doing this. It is no where to be found in my data when working in the PQ editor, but when I load to a page it gets automatically added.
 

Excel Facts

Highlight Duplicates
Home, Conditional Formatting, Highlight Cells, Duplicate records, OK to add pink formatting to any duplicates in selected range.
Sounds like "add related columns' has been checked. Do you see the 'extra' columns in the preview? Do you see ANY extra stuff in the preview?

I seem to remember that it was at the bottom of the dialog box as I was adding tables to my query. It might actually say "Add related tables"

Are Month and Month index, actual fields in ANY of your tables?

No, I think what happened is I initially had this data in a pivot table then realized I didnt like the format and switched to an actual table. Since the pivot table created the extra fields initially they same to have stuck around
