Attach Open Excel

Activity allows Wizlink to take control of an already open Excel file.

Activity requires full directory path to the file (File Path) and a custom internal name for further use in Wizlink (Workbook Name). File Path can be acquired using the Get Open Workbooks activity.

NOTE: Display alerts (default: off/False) will suppress prompts and alert messages while a macro is running. When a message requires a response, Microsoft Excel chooses the default response (for example: if the macro asks whether to save the file, the default response is Yes; this will overwrite the existing file).
