Hey.

I am trying to append a sheet to an existing file using write.xlsx, see
code under:

write.xlsx(x = data1,file = filename,sheetName = "data1", asTable =
FALSE,
col.names = T,row.names = F,append = F)
write.xlsx(x = data2,file = filename,sheetName = "data2", asTable =
FALSE,
col.names = T,row.names = F,append = T)

However, when using the last line does it not append it to the file, but
overwrite the file. Meaning that the file, which I have have called:

filename <- "test.xlsx"

only includes one sheet - data2. The first data sheet is not there. Why
does not append work with write.xlsx?
