Here’s an example of an OfficeScript that copies data from one sheet to another in the same workbook: function main(workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook, sourceSheetName: string, targetSheetName: string) { // Get the source and target sheets let sourceSheet = workbook.getWorksheet(sourceSheetName); let targetSheet = workbook.getWorksheet(targetSheetName); // Get the used range of the source sheet let sourceRange = sourceSheet.getUsedRange(); // Copy the values from the source range to the target sheet let targetRange = targetSheet.getRange(sourceRange.getAddress()); targetRange.setValues(sourceRange.getValues()); } To use this OfficeScript, follow these steps: Open Excel Online or Excel for the web. Open an existing workbook that contains the source and target sheets. Note down the names of the source sheet and the target sheet. Click on the “Automate” tab in the ribbon. Click on the “Script Lab” button. In the Script Lab pane, create a new script or open an existing one. Replace the default code in the script editor with the code provided above. In the main function call, provide the names of the source sheet and target sheet as arguments. Click the “Run” button to execute the script. This script copies the data from the used range of the source sheet to the corresponding range in the target sheet. The getUsedRange function retrieves the range containing the data in the source sheet, and the getAddress function gets the address of the range. Then, the values are copied from the source range to the target range using the getValues and setValues functions.

Delete data in Excel using Java
Deleting data from an Excel file using Java requires a similar approach as updating data. Since Excel files are not typically considered as databases, there is no direct “delete” operation. Instead, you need to read the file, identify the data you want to delete, remove it, and then write the modified data back to the file. Here’s an example code snippet that demonstrates how to delete data from an Excel file using Java and the Apache POI library: import java.io.FileInputStream; import java.io.FileOutputStream; import java.io.IOException; import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.*; import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFWorkbook; public class ExcelDataDeleter { public static void main(String[] args) { String filePath = "/path/to/your/excel_file.xlsx"; String sheetName = "Sheet1"; int rowToDelete = 1; try (FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(filePath); Workbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook(fis)) { Sheet sheet = workbook.getSheet(sheetName); Row row = sheet.getRow(rowToDelete); if (row != null) { sheet.removeRow(row); try (FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(filePath)) { workbook.write(fos); System.out.println("Excel file updated successfully."); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } else { System.out.println("Row does not exist."); } } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } Replace /path/to/your/excel_file.xlsx with the actual path to the Excel file you want to delete data from. In this example, we are deleting row 1 (2nd row) from the sheet. This code uses the Apache POI library to read the Excel file, retrieve the specified sheet, and get the row to delete. If the row exists, it is removed from the sheet. Finally, the modified workbook is saved back to the Excel file. Make sure to include the Apache POI library (poi-.jar, poi-ooxml-.jar) in your classpath. You can download the library from the Apache POI website or include it as a Maven/Gradle dependency
Update data in Excel DB using Java
Excel files are not typically considered as databases that support direct data updates like relational databases. Instead, they are usually used for storing and presenting data. If you want to update specific data in an Excel file programmatically, you will typically need to read the file, modify the data, and then write the modified data back to the file. Here’s an example code snippet that demonstrates how to update data in an Excel file using Java and the Apache POI library: import java.io.FileInputStream; import java.io.FileOutputStream; import java.io.IOException; import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.*; import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFWorkbook; public class ExcelDataUpdater { public static void main(String[] args) { String filePath = "/path/to/your/excel_file.xlsx"; String sheetName = "Sheet1"; int rowToUpdate = 1; int cellToUpdate = 1; String newValue = "[email protected]"; try (FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(filePath); Workbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook(fis)) { Sheet sheet = workbook.getSheet(sheetName); Row row = sheet.getRow(rowToUpdate); if (row != null) { Cell cell = row.getCell(cellToUpdate, Row.MissingCellPolicy.CREATE_NULL_AS_BLANK); cell.setCellValue(newValue); try (FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(filePath)) { workbook.write(fos); System.out.println("Excel file updated successfully."); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } else { System.out.println("Row does not exist."); } } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } Replace /path/to/your/excel_file.xlsx with the actual path to the Excel file you want to update. In this example, we are updating the value in row 1, cell 1 (B2) with the new email value “[email protected]“. This code uses the Apache POI library to read the Excel file, retrieve the specified sheet, and get the row and cell to update. If the row exists, the cell value is updated with the new value. Finally, the modified workbook is saved back to the Excel file. Make sure to include the Apache POI library (poi-.jar, poi-ooxml-.jar) in your classpath. You can download the library from the Apache POI website or include it as a Maven/Gradle dependency.
Write data to Excel using Java
To write data to an Excel file using Java, you can use the Apache POI library. Here’s an example code snippet that demonstrates how to write data to an Excel file using Java: import java.io.FileOutputStream; import java.io.IOException; import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.*; import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.XSSFWorkbook; public class ExcelDataWriter { public static void main(String[] args) { String filePath = "/path/to/your/excel_file.xlsx"; String sheetName = "Sheet1"; try (Workbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook()) { Sheet sheet = workbook.createSheet(sheetName); // Write data to cells Row row1 = sheet.createRow(0); row1.createCell(0).setCellValue("Name"); row1.createCell(1).setCellValue("Email"); Row row2 = sheet.createRow(1); row2.createCell(0).setCellValue("John Doe"); row2.createCell(1).setCellValue("[email protected]"); // Save workbook to file try (FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(filePath)) { workbook.write(fos); System.out.println("Excel file created successfully."); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } Replace /path/to/your/excel_file.xlsx with the actual path to the Excel file you want to create. This code uses the Apache POI library to create an Excel workbook (XSSFWorkbook), create a sheet within the workbook (createSheet()), and write data to cells using the setCellValue() method. In this example, it writes the headers “Name” and “Email” in the first row and “John Doe” and “[email protected]” in the second row. Finally, the workbook is saved to the specified file path using a FileOutputStream. Make sure to include the Apache POI library (poi-.jar, poi-ooxml-.jar) in your classpath. You can download the library from the Apache POI website or include it as a Maven/Gradle dependency.
Delete data in Access DB using Java
To delete data from an Access database using Java, you can use the JDBC-ODBC Bridge driver. However, please note that the JDBC-ODBC Bridge driver has been deprecated since Java 8 and is not recommended for use in production environments. It is recommended to use a dedicated JDBC driver provided by the database vendor for better performance and stability. That being said, here’s an example using the JDBC-ODBC Bridge driver to delete data from an Access database: import java.sql.*; public class AccessDBDataDeleter { public static void main(String[] args) { // Database URL String url = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)};DBQ=/path/to/your/access_database.accdb"; // SQL query String query = "DELETE FROM your_table WHERE name = ?"; try { // Register JDBC driver Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"); // Open a connection Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url); // Create a prepared statement PreparedStatement stmt = conn.prepareStatement(query); // Set parameter value stmt.setString(1, "John Doe"); // Execute the query int rowsAffected = stmt.executeUpdate(); // Process the result System.out.println(rowsAffected + " row(s) deleted successfully."); // Close the resources stmt.close(); conn.close(); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (SQLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } Replace /path/to/your/access_database.accdb with the actual path to your Access database file. Keep in mind that the JDBC-ODBC Bridge driver might not be available in all Java environments, and its usage is discouraged in favor of native drivers provided by the database vendors.
