Hlo folks,

I m trying to open a workbook in excel and then open a particular sheet. I don't find any way to resolve this problem. I also trying _ExcelSheetActivate() function but this will not work.

Here is my code

Local $oExcel_1= _Excel_Open()
Local $sWorkbook="C:\Users\Tushar Verma\Desktop\AUTO IT\Test.xlsx"
Local $oWorkbook = _Excel_BookOpen($oExcel_1,$sWorkbook)
_ExcelSheetActivate($oExcel_1, "Test") ; I want to open this sheet (Test) but this will not open 


WinActivate($oWorkbook)
Sleep(3000)
$read1=_Excel_RangeRead($oWorkbook,Default,"A2")

 Thanks in advance !!

_ExcelSheetActivate is a function of a very, very old version of AutoIt. The Excel UDF has been rewritten since and all functions renamed to _Excel_*. Some of them have been dropped.
Please see the AutoIt change history.

With activating a specific sheet you automate the Excel GUI. With the Excel UDF you use the COM interface. I suggest to not mix this two.
Use the correct UDF function for your goal and pass the sheet number or name to process as parameter.

What exactly do you want to do with the selected sheet?

If you want to activate a worksheet you can also use the $oWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate to make it the active sheet.  Example below:

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

Local $oExcel = _Excel_Open()
Local $oWorkbook = _Excel_BookOpen($oExcel, @ScriptDir & "\Workbook.xlsx")
;~ Activate/Navigate to worksheet "Sheet1"
;~ nb: Not required to use _Excel_RangeRead
$oWorkbook.WorkSheets("Sheet1").Activate
;~ Read range A1:B4 on Sheet1
Local $aWorkbook = _Excel_RangeRead($oWorkbook, "Sheet1", "A1:B4")
_ArrayDisplay($aWorkbook)
