In power query for excel I can get as far as columns A-E. What I would like to achieve within power query (maybe power pivot?) is to have a new column added 'F' which is the data of the last populated column from A-E.

Hi..
Convert the data in columns A:E to Table format.
Power Query: 
let
  Kaynak = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name = "Table1"]}[Content],
  ÖzelEklendi = Table.AddColumn(
    Kaynak,
    "Last Column Data",
    each List.Last(List.RemoveNulls(Record.ToList(_)))
  ),
  KaldırılanDiğerSütunlar = Table.SelectColumns(ÖzelEklendi, {"Last Column Data"})
in
  KaldırılanDiğerSütunlar
