How to keep columns header on excel without change after export data to excel file?

[ahmedbarbary]

I work on sql server 2017 I run script depend on python language v 3.10 .

I need to export data to excel fileStudentExport.xlsx already exist and keep header wihout change after export.

header of excel file StudentExport.xlsx before export data to it as below

StudentId,StudentName
after run script query to export data to StudentExport.xlsx Header changed to

StudentId,Name
my issue is header changed from column name StudentName to Name (exist on sql)

Exactly I need Export data to excel StudentExport.xlsx and depend on header exist on excel file

not depend on columns header of table exist on Sql server .

I export data to excel by this line

InputDataSet.to_excel(FullFilePath,sheet_name=TableName.split(".")[-1],index=False)
I try to change it to keep header on excel file StudentExport.xlsx without change as below

InputDataSet.to_excel(FullFilePath,sheet_name=TableName.split(".")[-1], header=False, startrow= 1,index=False)
but it give me data without header and header row blank

blank header

expected result

StudentId StudentName

script Query I run it as below for lookup

----drop table #FinalExportList

declare @ExportPath NVARCHAR(MAX)='G:\ImportExportExcel'
declare @FixedPath NVARCHAR(MAX)='G:\ExportFiles\StudentExport.xlsx'
CREATE TABLE #FinalExportList(TableCount INT IDENTITY(1,1),Cols NVARCHAR(MAX),TableName NVARCHAR(200))
insert into #FinalExportList(TableName,Cols)
values
('dbo.students','TRY_CONVERT(VARCHAR(MAX),StudentId) AS [StudentId], Name')

DECLARE
@TableName NVARCHAR(200)
,@SQL NVARCHAR(MAX) = N''
,@PythonScript NVARCHAR(MAX) = N''
,@ExportFilePath NVARCHAR(MAX) = N''


SELECT @ExportPath = CASE WHEN RIGHT(@ExportPath,1) = '\' THEN @ExportPath ELSE CONCAT(@ExportPath,'\') END


-- Just for testing purpose top 10 records are selected
SELECT @SQL = CONCAT('SELECT TOP 10 ',Cols,' FROM ',TableName,';')
,@TableName = TableName
FROM #FinalExportList


SET @PythonScript = N'import shutil
FullFilePath = ExcelFilePath+"StudentExport.xlsx"
shutil.copy(FixedPath,ExportPath)
InputDataSet.to_excel(FullFilePath,sheet_name=TableName.split(".")[-1],index=False)
