How about
read_excel_table <- function(x) {
readxl::read_excel(
x,
sheet=grep("tables",
excel_sheets(x),
ignore.case = TRUE,
value = TRUE),
.name_repair = fixColNames
)
}
lapply(SIS$FULL_FILEPATH, read_excel_table)
--Ista

Here?s a thought, please. Could you use the tolower function and make them all lower case?

I'm using the below to ready in multiple spreadsheets and it works perfectly fine if the worksheet is named 'Tables', but fails when it's named ' TABLES'. Any thoughts? lapply(1:nrow(SIS), function(x) readxl::read_excel(SIS$FULL_FILEPATH[x], sheet='Tables', .name_repair = fixColNames)) Thanks in advance for your response.
