Create a new Excel file from already existing file

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 65

I have an excel file having some sheets like below. I'll ask the user which sheet he wants. Then what are the columns you need in the new Excel File. eg. In my excel, I ask the user to select between Name, Code, DOJ, Designation. If he selects Name and Code column, then that should create a new Excel file having Name and Code value and saves accordingly.

 

So what I did was, i created a list which stores the user selected columns. I'm stuck after that on how to check.

    Use write to Excel worksheet activity and give the list as input 

    You can create a new worksheet manually and give that path or you can directly select the location and give the name so that the new excel sheet will be created automatically.

     

    Hope this helps,

    Hi @UshaJyothi20 , thanks for your reply.

     

    I tried as you suggested. But didn't work. And I also need the values of those columns to be extracted from input excel and copy to output excel
