How to read cells without format in php Excel 2007 - php

Question

iam trying to read an Excel File with PHP Reader, i print the information with an echo of the Highest Row and the Highest Colum, but what i get is the last formatted Column&Row and what i need is just the last cell where data was inserted. Here is my code:
require_once '..\..\..\Common\PHPExcel_1.7.9_doc\Classes\PHPExcel\IOFactory.php';
**code code code**
ReadExcelFile();
function ReadExcelFile(){
$inputFileType = 'Excel2007';
$inputFileName = '../ExcelFiles/test.xlsx';
$sheetname = 'Tabelle1';
try {
$objReader = PHPExcel_IOFactory::createReader($inputFileType);
$objReader->setReadDataOnly(true);
$objReader->setLoadSheetsOnly($sheetname);
$objPHPExcel = $objReader->load($inputFileName);
}
catch(Exception $e) {
die('Error loading Excel file '.$e->getMessage());
}
$sheet = $objPHPExcel->getSheet(0);
echo $highestRow = $sheet->getHighestRow();
echo $highestColumn = $sheet->getHighestColumn();
}
Iam reading a very extense Macro that is modified once in a while externally (thats why i need to read just only to the last cell where has data) What i did was just a small copy of this excel file and the output was just
"254J"
But my last cell with data is about "210J". Anyone knows how to do it?

Answer 1

$highestRow = $sheet->getHighestDataRow();
$highestColumn = $sheet->getHighestDataColumn();
