# xlsxecute

This tool will take an Excel model (.xlsx), update any parameters as defined via command line arguments or in the parameters file and calculate all cells, resulting in an Excel spreadsheet resembling the original, but with all formula cells replaced by the calculated values.

#### Command line arguments:

Command line arguments take the form of:
```bash
-f "Sheet name.Cell1=Replacement value string" -f "Sheet name.Cell2=Replacement_value_float"
```
Note: Quotation marks are not required if there no space in the parameter string.

Example:
```
xlsxecute -f "Variables.C2=red" -f Variables.C3=0.8 sample.xlsx
```

#### JSON:
```json
{
   "Sheet name.Cell1": "Replacement value string",
