Hi everyone!

 

I have a list of URLs to be copied into an active (open) Excel workbook each as new row in column A. I was able to attach to the workbook and get number of rows as follow:

#include <Excel.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

; Create application object and open an example workbook
Local $sWorkbook = "d:\DOCUMENTS\Surveys\_surveys_paneldirector.xlsx"
Local $oExcel = _Excel_Open()
If @error Then Exit
Local $oWorkbook = _Excel_BookOpen($oExcel, $sWorkbook)
If @error Then
    _Excel_Close($oExcel)
    Exit
EndIf

; Attach to the first Workbook where the file path matches
$oWorkbook = _Excel_BookAttach($sWorkbook)
If @error Then Exit

$oRange = $oExcel.ActiveSheet.Range("A:A")
MsgBox(4096, "Excel Count Non-Blank Cells", $oExcel.WorksheetFunction.CountA($oRange))

Will you please help me with the remaining part of the code (to paste each URL from clipboard into new Excel row)?

You could use the Excel UDF that comes with AutoIt.
You could either use _Excel_RangeCopyPaste to write the content of the clipboard to cell or write all URL to an array and use _Excel_RangeWrite to write all URLs in one go to tjhe workbook.

Many thanks! I have already tried to paste it into fixed cell as follows:

_Excel_RangeCopyPaste($oExcel.ActiveSheet, Default, "A41")

It selects the cell but doesn't actually paste the text form clipboard

Global $iNextNewRow = $oExcel.ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count + 1

$oExcel.Application.ActiveSheet.Range("A" & $iNextNewRow).Select
$oExcel.Selection.Paste

 

Many thanks! First two lines work well and the scripts selects new row. And this:

$oExcel.Selection.Paste

throws the error mentioned above. Just unable to paste from the clipboard for some reason
