Counting Rows / Columns In Excel Worksheet Using VB 2008

Mar 16, 2012

This is my first time posting in a forum like this, so please excuse me if I accidentally break any thread rules (btw, where can i find these?). I am very new to Visual Basic and have been trying to teach myself as I create this program. I have experience with macros in excel so I do understand some of the coding, but definitely nowhere near being proficient. I am using Visual Basic 2008 Step by Step (Michael Halvorson) to teach myself.

I am trying to create some code in my program that will allow the user to open an excel file and then return the number of rows and columns in the worksheet. There will only be 1 worksheet in the workbook (since this is just a small part of a larger program I am writing). I already tested the code that will open the file in another program and it worked fine; the thing that is catching me is the row and column counts. I'm a bit stuck here and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Here is the code as follows: Code: I have another sub for a quit button which I chose to leave out. The last line for the MessageBox is causing me problems.

Activate Or Select A Worksheet In Excel Via Automation In 2008?

Aug 19, 2010

I would like to ask how I can select an Excel worksheet via code in vb. I looked but I only came across something like the below:

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Dim objSheets As Excel.Sheets

[code]....

with the line: objSheet = objSheets(1), but because the tabs can be in any order, using the index isn't really helpful to me. Is there a way to select a worksheet by name in VB 2008?

Perhaps something like the : objSheets("MyWorksheet").select

that is something akin to the Excel vba code?

VS 2008 - Merge Two Text Files (Rows And Columns)

Jan 28, 2011

I have two text files. The first text file has the format:
ID h1 h2 h3
a 1 5 7
b 3 3 5
c 0 4 8

And the second file:
ID h4 h5 h6
a 2 4 9
b 3 6 1
b 4 1 5

Now I want to merge two files. The output likes
ID h1 h2 h3 h4 h5 h6
a 1 5 7 2 4 9
b 3 3 5 3 6 1
b 4 1 5
c 0 4 8

The two files has the same rows and columns. For the first rows(except header) in the two files, they have the same first column. Therefore just a simple append. The final first row becomes
a 1 5 7 2 4 9
The question is in the first only has one
b
and the second file has two

I want the maximum count of items from each list in the resultant list. I put some white spaces after "b" then append strings.
b 4 1 5
For key "c", because it is only in the first file and not in the second file, so I append white spaces after the corresponding strings.

Counting The Number Of Rows In A Database?

Apr 30, 2009

I am using a tableadapter to connect my project to an MS database. I need a a function which counts the number of rows in the table for something which I am doing. I have sucessfully used the count function to count the number of rows for my other tables, but when I tried to reuse it for another table, it wouldn't work. I get an error...

An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in System.Data.dllAdditional information: Input string was not in a correct format.Couldn't store <AH25> in ProductCode Column. Expected type is Int32.

and this is the code which I used

Dim record As Integer = TAProduct.GetData.Rows
Do Until record = TAProduct.GetData().Count
' other codes
loop

It only seems to work if the first column is an integer datatype, which is the case for my other tables, but the table which I am currently dealing with using a string datatype. Is there another way to count the number of rows without using SQL statements or can I adapt my existing code in some way?

Counting Columns In ASCII Text File To Enter Data Into An Array

Nov 21, 2009

I am using visual basic 2008 and trying to create an application to plot data from text files. I have several data files of various sizes. They have an unknown number of rows and either 2 or 4 columns.I need to put the data into 2 dimensional array, so value(,) becomes either value(lines,3) or value(lines,1) depending on the number of columns.My program needs to be able to count how many columns there are, and redim value(,) appropriately.I have written a piece of code to count the number of lines (rows) in the file using 'While not (EOF(1)) ....' but I'm stuck on how to count the number of columns.I could ask the user to indicate how many columns there are before the file is read, but I would prefer the program to detect the number automatically.
