Manage Excel Sheets and Files is a utility script designed to streamline the management of Excel files. It allows you to combine multiple Excel files from a directory into one file or split a single Excel file into multiple sheets or files based on a specific column. The script supports password-protected files and offers an intuitive command-line interface.

• Combine Excel Files: Merge multiple Excel files from a directory into one file.
• Split Excel Files: Split a single Excel file into multiple files or sheets based on a specified column.
• Password Protection: Handle password-protected Excel files with a single password or different passwords for each file.
• Interactive Mode: User-friendly interactive mode to guide through combining and splitting tasks.
• Logging: Logs activities and errors to excel_manager.log.

• Python 3.6 or higher is required.
• Install the required Python packages:

pip install pandas msoffcrypto-tool openpyxl

git clone https://github.com/ODosari/manage_excel_sheets_and_files.git
cd manage_excel_sheets_and_files

You can use the script in both interactive and command-line modes.

Run the script without any arguments to enter the interactive mode:

python manage_excel_sheets_and_files.py

Use the following commands to combine or split Excel files directly from the command line:

Combine all Excel files from a specified directory into a single file:

python manage_excel_sheets_and_files.py -c <directory_path>

Split a single Excel file into multiple files or sheets based on a specific column:

python manage_excel_sheets_and_files.py -s <file_path>

• C <directory>: Combine all Excel files from the specified directory into a single file.
• S <file>: Split an Excel file into multiple sheets or files based on a specific column.
• Q: Quit the program.

• -c, --combine <directory_path>: Path to the directory containing Excel files to combine.
• -s, --split <file_path>: Path to the Excel file to split into multiple sheets or files.

python manage_excel_sheets_and_files.py -c ./data/excel_files/

This command will combine all Excel files in the ./data/excel_files/ directory into a single file.

python manage_excel_sheets_and_files.py -s ./data/excel_files/sample.xlsx

This command will split the sample.xlsx file based on a specified column into multiple files or sheets.

The script supports handling password-protected Excel files. You can provide a single password for all files or use a template for multiple passwords.

If all files use the same password, you will be prompted to enter it once. The script will use this password for all files.

If different files have different passwords, the script will create a password template:

1. Create Password Template: The script generates a password template Excel file where you can specify passwords for each file.
2. Fill in Passwords: Fill in the passwords in the generated template.
3. Run Again: Rerun the script with the completed password template.
