### Apache Hop version? 2.15 ### Java version? openjdk 17.0.16+8-LTS ### Operating system macOS ### What happened? *Microsoft Excel Input* starts numbering *Start row* at the index (0) while spreadsheet tools show (1) as the first row number. This for example would fail, because spreadsheet row (4) would be read, when configuring "Start row" (3): <img width="577" height="232" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/951acef9-e758-47fa-b291-daf6d9d7b704"; /> <br /> vs. <br /> <img width="244" height="146" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/328ae537-cea9-4413-a378-aed01168844f"; /> Same goes for *Start column*, even though spreadsheet tools use letters instead of numbers. Ideally one could enter Letters as "Start column" instead. I suggest this as a bugfix to be planned for release 3.0, as it introduces a breaking change. ### Issue Priority Priority: 3 ### Issue Component Component: Transforms -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
