How to write into excel file using Javascript?
I have written the following javascript to write into excel.However "book.Sheets" doesn't seem to exist so I am unable to create sheet object
Also when It tries to execute the code - app.Cells(1,1) = "test"; --- get the error that the function does not exist
var fileName = "C:\\Files\\test.xlsx";
var sheetName = "Sheet1";
var app = Sys.OleObject("Excel.Application")
app.Visible = "True";
var book = app.Workbooks.Open(fileName);
var sheet = book.Sheets(sheetName);
rowCount = app.ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count + 1;
colCount = 1;
app.Cells(1,1) = "test";
Please suggest if I am missing anything?Thanks in advance
In JavaScript (not JScript) you need to access Excel collection items by using the .Items property:
book.Sheets(sheetName) => book.Sheets.Item(sheetName)
app.Cells(1,1) => app.Cells.Item(1,1)etc.

Also, you can't assign to a cell directly because it's an object, you need to use something like:
app.Cells.Item(1,1).Value2 = "test";
