Um... Ick.





I found an OLD discussion where this question got asked - somewhere around 2015 - or about 75 years ago in computer years. They got the same answer, but I figured after ALL THAT TIME Excel MUST have something a whole lot better than brute force, hoping you hit the right columns, during an import of a file that should be formatted so you don't have to import it.....

It does, Power Query. Set it up well and you may not even have to click anything at all for it to update correctly.
