Format an Excel range as a table

Use jetformat excel table to format an Excel range as a table.

By Jetformat

The range needs a header and at least one data row. Assign a descriptive table name and choose the complete data region.

Steps

  1. Start with a local XLSX. Replace the sample paths and identifiers with your own.
  2. Run the command below. Save to a new output path so the source remains available for comparison.
  3. Check the result as described below before using it in another job.
jetformat excel table finance.xlsx --sheet Summary --range A1:B2 --name Sales -o finance-updated.xlsx

Options for this task

Option Meaning
--name Table name; spaces are not allowed
--output Output XLSX path (required)
--range Range, for example A1:C10
--sheet Worksheet name (required)

Check the result

Open the output and check header names, table boundaries, and whether all intended rows are included.

Notes and limits

Writing an Office document uses one credit per command. See the billing guide for the current rules.

The examples keep the original file. Add --force only when you intend to overwrite an existing output. Run jetformat excel table --help to compare options with your installed version.

See the excel command reference for the surrounding workflow.
