you need to first read the excel file each at a time and then apply the logic to delete the column whatever you want and then write the new data into either same file but in different sheet and then delete the old sheet and save the file..Else write the new data into new excel file and then delete the old file..

You can use datastore() to read the files and the SelectedVariablesName to filter out what columns you want. Then save the associated variables with csvwrite() .
