Save Matlab data in Excel with ActiveX

Hello,

I need your help as I am not very experienced in linking with Excel through ActiveX. Below I attach the code I managed to write so far (based on suggestions from Internet). My goal is to use template.xlsx which contains desired formatting, write values inside and save everything under different name, e.g. file.xlsx.

I would appreciate if you help me complete this code.

% Specify file name
file = 'P:\WPM\CCB\Notatka\RF\template.xlsx'; % This must be full path name
% Open Excel Automation server
Excel = actxserver('Excel.Application');
Workbooks = Excel.Workbooks;
% Make Excel visible
Excel.Visible=1;
% Open Excel file
Workbook=Workbooks.Open(file);
% Specify sheet number, data, and range to write to 
sheetnum=1;
data = SECTORS.PNFS.Total{1:end,1:end};  % use a cell array if you want both numeric and text data
range = 'B9:L77';
% Make the first sheet active
Sheets = Excel.ActiveWorkBook.Sheets;
sheet1 = get(Sheets, 'Item', sheetnum);
invoke(sheet1, 'Activate');
Activesheet = Excel.Activesheet;
% Put MATLAB data into Excel
ActivesheetRange = get(Activesheet,'Range',range);
set(ActivesheetRange, 'Value', data);

Dear Cris,

Thanks a lot for your attempt to help me, however, I know well those examples you suggested, based on which I managed to write and understand the code I submitted. I think I need help at the very end of my code. I ask for very specific help with completing it. I would be grateful for any ideas.

So what is the missing piece? Saving it under a new name? Use the 'saveas' method instead of 'save'.

Workbooks.SaveAs(newfile);

If you want a solution guaranteed to work for your specific case, share your data and template files for us to use in our testing. You can attach them using the paperclip icon.
