Sometimes the column header of your raw data gets changed. This is annoying. Here are three methods to deal with it.

Try Otherwise: Use this if the column name changes between (ideally only) two options e.g. "Name" and "First name"
ListLast: Use this if you can guarantee that it's always the last column that has a variable name
ColumnNames{Index}: Use this if you can guarantee it's always a specific column position e.g. always the third column.
