'ExcelJS cross sheet formula parsing error
I have a title sheet, where I am trying to sum up all the values in Cell E6 for all my other sheets.
Off of this GitHub issue, I have tried this:
spreadsheetExport.worksheets.map((worksheet: Worksheet, index: number) => {
if (index !== 1) {
formulaArr.push(`${worksheet.name}!E6`);
}
});
const formula = formulaArr.join(' + ');
titleSheet.getCell('B3').value = { formula, date1904: false };
these have all led to an error (photo attached) in the export which reads:
The formula couldn’t be imported and was replaced by the last calculated value.
If I try to do it manually, I can get this formula
, but if I copy that same notation, I get the same error The formula couldn’t be imported and was replaced by the last calculated value. Original formula: ='Master Bedroom'::Table 1::E6 + 'Dining Room'::Table 1::E6 + 'Bedroom #1'::Table 1::E6 and if I copy the erroring formula and paste it into the cell it works.
Please help, I have been stuck for days, with no end in sight. I have tried named cells as well but that is not working either.
