That page has been down for me for a while, so just in case, here's
another link that someone posted last week:

Re: [Wtr-general] Using Excel

2007-06-25 Thread Tiffany Fodor
I've been using the XLS interface class to get data for data-driven tests, but 
now I'd like to write data out to an Excel spreadsheet.

Does anyone know if there is a list of the available methods for the XLS 
interface class?  The documentation at 
http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Excel+interface+class mentions that you can 
write to Excel, but doesn't show the methods to use.  I've checked the rdoc as 
well, but I don't see any information there either.

Thanks!

Re: [Wtr-general] Using Excel

2007-06-25 Thread Brown, David
Tiffany,
I've generated r-doc documentation for the XLS class and uploaded it to
the watir site
(http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Excel+interface+class).  It includes
some short comments on the methods used to write to excel (also listed
below).  There should be examples of using each of the methods in the
associated unit tests.

Here are the methods for writing to excel:
def write2DArray(data, myRange,sheet = nil)
#writes out the 2D Array  *data* starting at the specified range
*myRange* on the specified sheet

def writeArrayHash(data, myRange,sheet = nil)
#writes out the Array hash  *data* starting at the specified range
*myRange* on the specified sheet.
#the keys are used as column headers starting at the specified range.

def save #saves the current workbook
def addSheet(sheetName)# Adds a new worksheet to workbook
def deleteSheet(sheetName)# Deletes a worksheet from the workbook

Thanks so much David!

I've been using your XLS class for lots of data-driven tests - I really 
appreciate all the work you've put into it!  It's certainly made my life easier.
