Python How to Use Excelwriter to Write into an Existing Worksheet

How to save a new sheet in an existing excel file, using Pandas?

Thank you. I believe that a complete example could be good for anyone else who have the same issue:

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"

x1 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df1 = pd.DataFrame(x1)

x2 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df2 = pd.DataFrame(x2)

writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine = 'xlsxwriter')
df1.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x1')
df2.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x2')
writer.save()
writer.close()

Here I generate an excel file, from my understanding it does not really matter whether it is generated via the "xslxwriter" or the "openpyxl" engine.

When I want to write without loosing the original data then

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from openpyxl import load_workbook

path = r"C:\Users\fedel\Desktop\excelData\PhD_data.xlsx"

book = load_workbook(path)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(path, engine = 'openpyxl')
writer.book = book

x3 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df3 = pd.DataFrame(x3)

x4 = np.random.randn(100, 2)
df4 = pd.DataFrame(x4)

df3.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x3')
df4.to_excel(writer, sheet_name = 'x4')
writer.save()
writer.close()

this code do the job!

How can we write new data to existing Excel spreadsheet?

Please notes that Testing Append Process.xlsx file has to be created before running this code.

from openpyxl import load_workbook
import pandas as pd

data = {'Name': ['Tom', 'Joseph', 'Krish', 'John'], 'Age': [20, 21, 19, 18]}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

filename = "Testing Append Process.xlsx"
workbook = load_workbook(filename)
writer = pd.ExcelWriter(filename, engine='openpyxl')
writer.book = workbook
writer.sheets = {ws.title: ws for ws in workbook.worksheets}

df.to_excel(writer, startrow=writer.sheets['Sheet1'].max_row, index = False, header= False)

writer.close()

Returns the following if you will run the code twice.
