如何使用 Xlwings 和 Python 合并同一个 Excel 工作簿中的所有工作表

Question

I'm trying to Merge all Worksheets within the same Excel Workbook using Xlwings if anyone could please advise on how this could be done?

The code below is able to grab all worksheets and combine them into a created output file but the worksheet tabs remain separated instead of being merged.

import xlwings as xw
import glob
import sys

folder = sys.argv[1]
inputFile = sys.argv[2]
outputFile = sys.argv[3]

path = r""+folder+""

excel_files = glob.glob(path + "*" + inputFile + "*")   
with xw.App(visible=False) as app:
    combined_wb = app.books.add()
    for excel_file in excel_files:
        print(excel_file)
        wb = app.books.open(excel_file)
        for sheet in wb.sheets:
            sheet.copy(after=combined_wb.sheets[0])
        wb.close()
    combined_wb.sheets[0].delete()
    combined_wb.save(outputFile)
    combined_wb.close()

Answer 1

You will need to do something like this;
Select the [used] cells in the sheet and then copy/paste to the combined_wb sheet[X].
The example below modifies your code somewhat to do that, and pastes down column A separating each sheet contents by 10 rows. Obviously you'd need to determine where each original sheet gets pasted into that one sheet in combined_wb.
Note; this copy/paste should also include the data styling like font name, color, size and format.

new_row = 1
with xw.App(visible=False) as app:
    combined_wb = app.books.add()
    for excel_file in excel_files:
        print(excel_file)
        wb = app.books.open(excel_file)
        ws = wb.sheets[0]
        ws.used_range.copy()
        # for sheet in wb.sheets:
        #     sheet.copy(after=combined_wb.sheets[0])
        combined_wb.sheets[0].range('A{0}'.format(new_row)).paste(paste='all')
        wb.close()
        new_row += 10
    # combined_wb.sheets[0].delete()
    combined_wb.save(outputFile)
    combined_wb.close()

Answer 2

You could loop over the worksheets and use an index on the range object of used_range , ie used_range[-1:,:] to position the worksheets in a output workbook/worksheet.

import xlwings as xw

path_input = r"C:\Users\trunk\Desktop\Tab1.xlsx"
path_save = r"C:\Users\trunk\Desktop\finished.xlsx"

with xw.App(visible=False) as app:
    wb_init = xw.Book(path_input)
    wb_res = xw.Book()
    sheets = wb_init.sheets
    ws_res = wb_res.sheets[0]

    for ws in sheets:
        ws.used_range.copy()
        ws_res.used_range[-1:,:].offset(row_offset=1).paste()
    ws_res["1:1"].delete() # This is just to delete the first row, which is empty.
    wb_res.save(path_save)
    wb_res.close(); wb_init.close()
