Introduction
In Excel, you can select a range, copy the range, then paste it with specific options to the same worksheet, other worksheets or other files.
Copy Ranges Using Aspose.Cells for JavaScript via C++
Aspose.Cells for JavaScript via C++ provides some overload Range.copy(Range, PasteOptions) methods to copy the range. And Range.copyStyle(Range) only the copy style of the range; Range.copyData(Range) only the copy value of the range.
Copy Range
Creating two ranges: the source range, the target range, then copying the source range to the target range with the Range.copy method.
See the following code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Aspose.Cells Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Example Title</h1>
<input type="file" id="fileInput" accept=".xls,.xlsx,.csv" />
<button id="runExample">Run Example</button>
<a id="downloadLink" style="display: none;">Download Result</a>
<div id="result"></div>
</body>
<script src="aspose.cells.js.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
const { Workbook, SaveFormat, Worksheet, Cell } = AsposeCells;
AsposeCells.onReady({
license: "/lic/aspose.cells.enc",
fontPath: "/fonts/",
fontList: [
"arial.ttf",
"NotoSansSC-Regular.ttf"
]
}).then(() => {
console.log("Aspose.Cells initialized");
});
document.getElementById('runExample').addEventListener('click', async () => {
const fileInput = document.getElementById('fileInput');
let workbook;
if (fileInput.files.length) {
const file = fileInput.files[0];
const arrayBuffer = await file.arrayBuffer();
workbook = new Workbook(new Uint8Array(arrayBuffer));
} else {
workbook = new Workbook();
}
// Get all the worksheets in the book.
let worksheets = workbook.worksheets;
// Get the first worksheet in the worksheets collection.
let worksheet = workbook.worksheets.get(0);
// Create a range of cells.
let sourceRange = worksheet.cells.createRange("A1", "A2");
// Input some data with some formattings into A few cells in the range.
sourceRange.get(0, 0).value = "Test";
sourceRange.get(1, 0).value = 123;
// Create target range of cells.
let targetRange = worksheet.cells.createRange("B1", "B2");
// Copy source range to target range in the same worksheet
targetRange.copy(sourceRange);
// Create target range of cells.
workbook.worksheets.add();
worksheet = workbook.worksheets.get(1);
targetRange = worksheet.cells.createRange("A1", "A2");
// Copy source range to target range in another worksheet
targetRange.copy(sourceRange);
// Copy to another workbook
const anotherWorkbook = new Workbook();
worksheet = workbook.worksheets.get(0);
targetRange = worksheet.cells.createRange("A1", "A2");
// Copy source range to target range in another workbook
targetRange.copy(sourceRange);
const outputData = workbook.save(SaveFormat.Xlsx);
const blob = new Blob([outputData]);
const downloadLink = document.getElementById('downloadLink');
downloadLink.href = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
downloadLink.download = 'output.xlsx';
downloadLink.style.display = 'block';
downloadLink.textContent = 'Download Modified Excel File';
document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = '<p style="color: green;">Operation completed successfully!</p>';
});
</script>

Paste Range With Options
Aspose.Cells for JavaScript via C++ supports pasting the range with specific types.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Aspose.Cells Paste Range Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Paste Range Example</h1>
<input type="file" id="fileInput" accept=".xls,.xlsx,.csv" />
<button id="runExample">Run Example</button>
<a id="downloadLink" style="display: none;">Download Result</a>
<div id="result"></div>
</body>
<script src="aspose.cells.js.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
const { Workbook, SaveFormat, PasteOptions, PasteType } = AsposeCells;
AsposeCells.onReady({
license: "/lic/aspose.cells.enc",
fontPath: "/fonts/",
fontList: [
"arial.ttf",
"NotoSansSC-Regular.ttf"
]
}).then(() => {
console.log("Aspose.Cells initialized");
});
document.getElementById('runExample').addEventListener('click', async () => {
const fileInput = document.getElementById('fileInput');
if (!fileInput.files.length) {
document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = '<p style="color: red;">Please select an Excel file.</p>';
return;
}
const file = fileInput.files[0];
const arrayBuffer = await file.arrayBuffer();
// Loads the workbook which contains hidden external links
const workbook = new Workbook(new Uint8Array(arrayBuffer));
// Get all the worksheets in the book.
const worksheets = workbook.worksheets;
// Get the first worksheet in the worksheets collection.
const worksheet = workbook.worksheets.get(0);
// Create a range of cells.
const sourceRange = worksheet.cells.createRange("A1", "A2");
// Input some data with some formattings into a few cells in the range.
sourceRange.get(0, 0).value = "Test";
sourceRange.get(1, 0).value = 123;
// Create target range of cells.
const targetRange = worksheet.cells.createRange("B1", "B2");
// Init paste options.
const options = new PasteOptions();
// Set paste type.
options.pasteType = PasteType.ValuesAndFormats;
options.skipBlanks = true;
// Copy source range to target range
targetRange.copy(sourceRange, options);
// Saving the modified Excel file
const outputData = workbook.save(SaveFormat.Xlsx);
const blob = new Blob([outputData]);
const downloadLink = document.getElementById('downloadLink');
downloadLink.href = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
downloadLink.download = 'output.xlsx';
downloadLink.style.display = 'block';
downloadLink.textContent = 'Download Modified Excel File';
document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = '<p style="color: green;">Range copied successfully! Click the download link to get the modified file.</p>';
});
</script>

Only Copy Data Of The Range
Also, you can copy the data with the Range.copyData method as shown in the following code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Aspose.Cells Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Copy Range Example</h1>
<input type="file" id="fileInput" accept=".xls,.xlsx,.csv" />
<button id="runExample">Run Example</button>
<a id="downloadLink" style="display: none;">Download Result</a>
<div id="result"></div>
</body>
<script src="aspose.cells.js.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
const { Workbook, SaveFormat } = AsposeCells;
AsposeCells.onReady({
license: "/lic/aspose.cells.enc",
fontPath: "/fonts/",
fontList: [
"arial.ttf",
"NotoSansSC-Regular.ttf"
]
}).then(() => {
console.log("Aspose.Cells initialized");
});
document.getElementById('runExample').addEventListener('click', async () => {
const fileInput = document.getElementById('fileInput');
if (!fileInput.files.length) {
document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = '<p style="color: red;">Please select an Excel file.</p>';
return;
}
const file = fileInput.files[0];
const arrayBuffer = await file.arrayBuffer();
// Instantiating a Workbook object from the uploaded file
const workbook = new Workbook(new Uint8Array(arrayBuffer));
// Get all the worksheets in the book.
const worksheets = workbook.worksheets;
// Get the first worksheet in the worksheets collection.
const worksheet = worksheets.get(0);
// Create a range of cells.
const sourceRange = worksheet.cells.createRange("A1", "A2");
// Input some data with some formattings into a few cells in the range.
sourceRange.get(0, 0).value = "Test";
sourceRange.get(1, 0).value = 123;
// Create target range of cells.
const targetRange = worksheet.cells.createRange("B1", "B2");
// Copy the data of source range to target range
targetRange.copyData(sourceRange);
// Saving the modified Excel file
const outputData = workbook.save(SaveFormat.Xlsx);
const blob = new Blob([outputData]);
const downloadLink = document.getElementById('downloadLink');
downloadLink.href = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
downloadLink.download = 'output.xlsx';
downloadLink.style.display = 'block';
downloadLink.textContent = 'Download Excel File';
document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = '<p style="color: green;">Range copied successfully! Click the download link to get the modified file.</p>';
});
