Combine Multiple Workbooks into a Single Workbook

Sometimes, you need to combine workbooks with various content like images, charts and data into a single workbook. Aspose.Cells for Python via .NET supports this feature. This article shows how to create a console application in Visual Studio and combine workbooks with a few, simple lines of code using Aspose.Cells for Python via .NET.

Combining Workbooks with Images and Charts

The example code combines two workbooks into a single workbook using Aspose.Cells for Python via .NET. The code loads the source workbooks, uses the Workbook.combine() method to combine them and saves the output workbook.

Source Workbooks

• charts.xlsx
• picture.xlsx

Output Workbooks

• combined.xlsx
