namedRegion and table names clash
Even though they are handled separately in openxml, it is impossible to have identical names for tables and regions (our name for definedName). A check should be added, when creating a table or a defined name. Maybe something like wb_named_region_validate()
that breaks if either name is found. It's a bit unfortunate that the table names are burried in wb$tables$tab_xml
.
wb <- wb_workbook()
# add a table to the sheet
wb$add_worksheet("Sheet 1")
wb$add_data_table(sheet = "Sheet 1", x = iris, tableName = "iris")
# add a named region to the sheet: names clash the file is broken
wb$add_worksheet("Sheet 2")
wb$add_named_region(
sheet = 2,
name = "iris",
rows = seq_len(nrow(iris) + 1),
cols = seq_along(iris)
)
