You need to pass output of first DSE to excel node as &lsquo;Document to Update&rsquo; attribute of 2nd node. Similarly 2nd node output should be used as base for 3rd node and so on. Then all the nodes append on the output of previous node. So check this configuration and give it a try

You used different Starting Cells correctly (A2, AY2, BY2) but didn't chain the documents. Each node was overwriting because it wasn't building on the previous output. Simply pass each node's output document as "Document to Update" to the next node - Node 1 output -> Node 2's Document to Update, Node 2 output -> Node 3's Document to Update.
This document chaining will append columns instead of overwriting, successfully exporting all 150 columns to one sheet.

If this will not work i already answer this question with different approach.
