3 years ago I had exactly the same issue.
Can you report this bug to the "active" openxlsx repository : https://github.com/ycphs/openxlsx/issues
It looks like awalker89/openxlsx is the old repository and is not active anymore
Expected Behavior
wb <- loadWorkbook("testCorrupting.xlsx") #that has a sort as part of a filter saveWorkbook(wb,"testCorrupted.xlsx", overwrite=TRUE)
open testCorrupted.xlsx - should not come up as corrupt.
Actual Behavior
open testCorrupted.xlsx - Excel says it is corrupted.
clearing the autoFilter field of the worksheet object before saving resolves it, but drops the filter and sort:
wb <- loadWorkbook("testCorrupting.xlsx") #that has a sort as part of a filter wb[["worksheets"]][1][[1]][["autoFilter"]] [1] "<autoFilter ref=\"A1:C1\"><sortState ref=\"A2:C5\"><sortCondition ref=\"B1\"/>"
wb[["worksheets"]][1][[1]][["autoFilter"]] <- character(0)
also the following works as it is only the sort that causes an issue:
wb[["worksheets"]][1][[1]][["autoFilter"]] <- "<autoFilter ref=\"A1:C1\"/> saveWorkbook(wb,"testCorrupted.xlsx", overwrite=TRUE)
Steps to Reproduce the Problem
(please attach an example xlsx file if possible) testCorrupting.xlsx
Have a spreadsheet with a filter added and a column sorted as in testCorrupting.xlsx
do the following in R
wb <- loadWorkbook("testCorrupting.xlsx") saveWorkbook(wb,"testCorrupted.xlsx", overwrite=TRUE)
sessionInfo()
