Trouble with Lunchbox Excel writer

Anyone can tell me what might be wrong here?
I am using Lunchbox as an excel exporter. The data preview is OK and shows desired structure but baking brings clean file.
It is displaying OK both in Data Grid and Excel Write while clicking Preview.

just tested it and it works fine for me…you didn’t post a files.

I did create a blank .xlsx to write to first, then set the file path.

it will always say null unless you put a Boolean toggle, which then continues to write. The button is a one-off.

My file is some kind of monster :slight_smile:
I will try to do as you suggest.

This is a message I am having, file still comes with no data.
{0;0}
0. System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800AC472): Exception from HRESULT: 0x800AC472

  • at Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Workbook.Save()*
  • at LunchBox.WF_ExcelWriteNew.SolveInstance(IGH_DataAccess DA)*

is your excel file open?

can you internalize the info coming into the component and post your setup?

I have extracted very last stuff and fed it with info from point cloud. Still having error when saving a file.Excel write test.gh (10.6 KB)

just make sure you have a writable file path

@Piotr, were you able to fix this? I have the same issue, very similar error code.

  1. Exception from HRESULT: 0x800AC472 (line: 0)

I have the same issue with multiple different excel-writer components.

Hi Brayton
I, eventually, abandoned Lunchbox and moved to TTToolbox and then to TTToolbox 2 and I like it. Very fast and flexible.
