Field Name variable

Hi Community,

Im doing a For each cycle for load several excel files. Its something like this.

FOR EACH File in FileList ('..\Dados\Matriz de Polivalência *.xls')

Table1:
     Date(field1) as Date,

     Name as Area

From $(File)

...

I want to change the name field depending on the file, but i have no idea how to do.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you

     if($(File)='the name you want', name,'else...') as Area

From $(File)
