Tabular data can be converted to a Table object. Excel provides all kinds of nice features related to tables: https://www.bluepecantraining.com/portfolio/convert-data-to-an-excel-table/
Tables are supported in XLSX (2007+) workbooks.
Creating a table is a matter of calling XLSheetWriter.CreateTable with the defined range, name and style.
You can see the various styles in Excel:
= "TableStyleMedium3"
It is also possible to load templates with tables and get the tables with Sheet.GetTables. You can create a template with a table, fill data and update the table area with Table.CellReferences.
Notes:
- Apache POI support for tables is quite basic.
- Tables ranges are not really dynamic. You cannot use tables as an alternative to dynamic named ranges. You can use both features together.
- Requires XLUtils v1.11+
