[Feature Request] Check for activated Excel

[liamcs98]

Howdy there!

Might be worth a cycle to add to -GenExcel to see if the installed version of excel is activated. An unactivated excel breaks the command.

Hi there,

This issue will be resolved when the code is rewritten to use the EPPlus library (https://github.com/JanKallman/EPPlus) for the Excel Report generation instead of the comobject.

Its on the roadmap, however not in the near future.

All good! Just wanted to bring it up since I searched through the issues and didnt see anyone mention this problem/feature. Definitely low priority.

The more I use this tool the more I love it.
Might also be worth it to allow a flag to not automatically generate the report when passing the output to specific directory flag.

You can use the -OutputType parameter for it.

-OutputType
Output Type; Comma seperated; e.g STDOUT,CSV,XML,JSON,HTML,Excel (Default STDOUT with -Collect parameter, else CSV and Excel).
Valid values include: STDOUT, CSV, XML, JSON, HTML, Excel, All (excludes STDOUT).
