Write Range

UiPath.Excel.Activities.ExcelWriteRange

Writes the data from a DataTable variable in a spreadsheet starting with the cell indicated in the StartingCell field. If the starting cell is not specified, the data is written starting from the A1 cell. If the sheet does not exist, a new one is created with the value specified in the SheetName property. All cells within the specified range are overwritten, and changes are immediately saved. The activity can only be used in the Excel Application Scope or Use Excel File activities.
Note: In UiPath.Excel.Activities v2.8.5, and later releases, an error is thrown if you use this activity to write to a range that contains hidden rows or columns.
