Sorry, but I agree with @dail What you are really asking for is coding help in html and JavaScript. That fact that you’re using Notepad++ has little to do with it. You might get lucky with someone here willing to offer some guidance but I think you’d be better off asking this type of question in a html/JavaScript forum.
Good luck

This seems to be more of an Excel question than an html or javascript issue.
Excel has a built-in language, Visual Basic for Applications or VBA, that you use to build forms and to import/export data. VBA is very different than JavaScript which is very different than HTML. Excel is also not connected to the Internet meaning you can’t directly have a web page that gets data from or puts data into a spreadsheet. You will go crazy try to learn all three at once combined with learning how to connect Excel to the Internet.
Google for
web front end to excel spreadsheetwhere people say how to do it. Many of the answers that Google finds look old and may not include that Microsoft has moved to Office 356 (which they now call Microsoft 365).You may also want to look into using Google sheets which is a web based thing that looks like Excel.
As others noted, this has nothing to do with Notepad++ other than you can use Notepad++ to edit VBA code along with JavaScript and HTML. Good luck.
