Step 4: Run VBS code that freeze rows in Excel sheet
Execute the following VBS code that freezes the first row of a worksheet, when a report is exported to Excel file.
'=====================================================================
' Tutorial 18
'
' This tutorial shows how to create an Excel file in VBScript and
' freeze first row from the sheet. The Excel file has multiple sheets.
' The first sheet is filled with data and it has a frozen row.
'=====================================================================' Constants declarationDim DATATYPE_STRING
DATATYPE_STRING = "string"
WScript.StdOut.WriteLine("Tutorial 18" & vbcrlf & "-----------" & vbcrlf)

' Create two sheets

' Get the table of data for the first worksheetSet xlsFirstTable = workbook.easy_getSheetAt(0).easy_getExcelTable()
' Add data in cells for report headerFor Column = 0 To 4

How to run VBScript tutorial In order to run the tutorial create a file named Tutorial18.vbs containing previous code, open Command Prompt, change the directory to tutorial location using cd command and type: > cscript Tutorial18.vbs.
Overloaded methods For methods with same name but different parameters, only the first method overload retains the original name. Subsequent overloads are uniquely renamed by appending to the method name '_2', '_3', etc (method, method_2, method_3), an integer that corresponds to the order of declaration that can be found in EasyXLS.h, a file that comes with EasyXLS installation.
