function Import-XLSX { <# .SYNOPSIS Import data from Excel .DESCRIPTION Import data from Excel .PARAMETER Path Path to an xlsx file to import .PARAMETER Sheet Index or name of Worksheet to import .PARAMETER Header Replacement headers. Must match order and count of your data's properties. .PARAMETER RowStart First row to start reading from, typically the header. Default is 1 .PARAMETER ColumnStart First column to start reading from. Default is 1 .PARAMETER FirstRowIsData Indicates that the first row is data, not headers. Must be used with -Header. .PARAMETER Text Extract cell text, rather than value. For example, if you have a cell with value 5: If the Number Format is '0', the text would be 5 If the Number Format is 0.00, the text would be 5.00 .EXAMPLE Import-XLSX -Path "C:\Excel.xlsx" #Import data from C:\Excel.xlsx .EXAMPLE Import-XLSX -Path "C:\Excel.xlsx" -Header One, Two, Five # Import data from C:\Excel.xlsx # Replace headers with One, Two, Five .EXAMPLE Import-XLSX -Path "C:\Excel.xlsx" -Header One, Two, Five -FirstRowIsData -Sheet 2 # Import data from C:\Excel.xlsx # Assume first row is data # Use headers One, Two, Five # Pull from sheet 2 (sheet 1 is default) .EXAMPLE # A B C # 1 Random text to mess with you! # 2 Header1 Header2 Header3 # 3 data1 Data2 Data3 # Your worksheet has data you don't care about in the first row or column # Use the ColumnStart or RowStart parameters to solve this. Import-XLSX -Path C:\RandomTextInRow1.xlsx -RowStart 2 .NOTES Thanks to Doug Finke for his example: https://github.com/dfinke/ImportExcel/blob/master/ImportExcel.psm1 Thanks to Philip Thompson for an expansive set of examples on working with EPPlus in PowerShell: https://excelpslib.codeplex.com/ .LINK https://github.com/RamblingCookieMonster/PSExcel .FUNCTIONALITY Excel #> [cmdletbinding()] param( [parameter( Mandatory=$true, ValueFromPipeline=$true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$true)] [validatescript({Test-Path $_})] [string[]]$Path, $Sheet = 1, [string[]]$Header, [switch]$FirstRowIsData, [switch]$Text, [int]$RowStart = 1, [int]$ColumnStart = 1 ) Process { foreach($file in $path) { #Resolve relative paths...
