The following code listing shows how to insert an XBRL report into an Excel file and populate the first cell using VBA:
' VBA Example 1:

Sub Example1()
Dim addIn As COMAddIn
Dim automationObject As Object
Dim Workbook As Object
Dim tableTree As Object
Dim tableNode As Object
' Get the Automation API object
Set addIn = Application.COMAddIns.Item("Altova.EBAAddIn")
Set automationObject = addIn.Object
' Insert a new EBA 2.9.1 COREP ALM report
Set Workbook = automationObject.InsertNewReport("http://www.eba.europa.eu/eu/fr/xbrl/crr/fws/corep/cir-680-2014/2019-11-15/mod/corep_alm_con.xsd")
Set tableTree = automationObject.GetTableTree(Workbook)
' Find table tree node for form 'C 68.00.a'
Set tableNode = tableTree.FindTableByRCCode("C 68.00.a")
' Include this table in the filing (this will also create the respective Excel worksheet)
tableNode.IncludeInFiling = True
' Get the Data range of this form and set the value of the first cell to 42
tableNode.Forms.Item(0).DataRange.Item(1).Value = "42"
End Sub
