Start row and column numbers by 1 #12

Closed lucielavickova closed 5 years ago

lucielavickova commented 5 years ago

I would appreciate if the row and column numbers could start by 1, not by 0. The reason is that robot framework in general is designed for people with limited or zero programming experience and therefore it's more natural to use the numbering starting by number 1.

Example: right now, to get data of the A1 cell, I need to write: read cell data Sheet1 0 0

but it would be much more understandable if it was: read cell data Sheet1 1 1

You can use Read Cell Data By Name and Write To Cell By Name by using Excel convention name, such as A1, B2, etc.

cool, thanks! Actually by looking at the keyword "read cell data by name" I thought it means that it will select the cell by the named range... So all good, let's close this ticket then :D
