Problem this solves
Writing 10K rows cell-by-cell takes hours; bulk write takes seconds. Most users don't know the pattern.
Usage Notes
- 1.Choose by output format: CSV for fastest, clipboard paste or native write for .xlsx.
- 2.CSV approach is the safest — atomic write with no intermediate steps.
- 3.Clipboard approach limitations: shared clipboard, may need Visible: True in unattended mode.
- 4.IncludeColumnNames matters — True for new files, False for appending.
- 5.Tab separator for clipboard paste — Excel interprets tabs as column separators.
- 6.Excel.WriteToExcel.WriteCell (Pattern 3) is unverified — test before production use.
