from a source excel file I have to copy the rows (with theirs formatting) where I find a specific string placed in a specific column. In few words I wanna implement a filter (see my attached screenshot to have an example).
now, I don't know so much about openpyxl, I chosed it because it seems quite popular. today I started to write a draft of the code, but now I don't know how to complete it. can you give me a hand please?

from io import BytesIO
import openpyxl
def FindColumnID(name, ws):
header = ws[1]
for cell in header:
if cell.value == name:
return header.index(name) + 1
def CreateDocument(database_path, text_path, column_name):
text_file = open(text_path, "r")
text = text_file.read()
text_file.close()
ls = text.split("\n")
ls.insert(0, column_name)
database_wb = openpyxl.load_workbook(database_path)
database_ws = database_wb[database_wb.sheetnames[0]]
column_id = FindColumnID(column_name, database_ws)
output = BytesIO()
result_wb = openpyxl.Workbook(output)
result_ws = slu_wb.active
result_ws.title = "RESULT"
for row in database_ws.rows:
for element in ls:
if database_ws.cell(row, column_id).value == element:
#
# copy the row with the formatting in result_wb <---------- how can I do it?
#
#
break
