The simplest way is to load the excel file with xlsread, then write the data back with only the desired columns using xlswrite.
data = xlsread('Myexcelfile.xlsx');
xlswrite('Myexcelfile_reduced.xlsx',data(:,1:2)); % Only columns A and B

Yah, but if the data to be sent back is smaller than the previous data. It`ll only rewrite a part of it and the remaining will be the previous data.
Is there any other work around?
