View 6 RepliesMy company is making thousands of products now, every one of them have several test report in excel files. I am thinking about putting all of them into a microsoft sql database,
1. Is it wise to do so? I think a sql database is a lot easier to manage.
2. Can I save or convert the excel file as one data in a table? How could I do it? I only see a image type for data type. Surely I expect to retrieve the excel file through ASP.Net website if necessary.oh, some additional info, every excel file is not big, but it contains pictures inside sometimes.
I want to merge or import a column of data from one data table created in VB.NET to another data table's 'same-named' column.The destination data table has all the required columns created before hand but the source data table contains one column at a time, whose name is the same as that of one of the columns in destination data table.Whatever coding I have done for the same till now, results in blank rows at starting. The destination data table looks like this:And I want it to be displayed it as:
View 1 RepliesI would like to know the best, or standard, way to accomplish real-time client updates in a small multi-user application using an access data table as a data source.Specifically, this application will be used by 3-4 people. It uses a datatable which is filled on form load and bound to a datagrid at design time. The datatable is stored on a shared drive. The data table on the shared drive is updated in two ways:
1) Users can update the datagrid which then updates the datatable on the shared drive via the data adapter's Update method.
2) A server application does some work on some text files, periodically updating the data table.
I need the clients to reflect the changes to the data table on the shared drive as closely to real-time as possible. I know that the data table stored in memory on the client is disconnected from the data table on the shared drive, so I must query again to get the updates.
1) Is there an alternvative model I can use which is connected, and which will automatically reflect the updates in the data table on the shared drive?
2) If not, what is the best way to check for changes in the data table (so I can know when to call the data adapter fill method)? I am planning to poll the drive for a change to the .mdb file, raise an event and then fill the data adapter when the event is triggered. I am using this method successfully now to check for changes to a text file in another application, and I know how to implement it?

I need to import data from excel to sql. I use Microsoft SQL serverManagement Studio Express(2005) and Visual Studio 2010.
I have tried many sql queries but nothing works for me.
using this: INSERT INTO dbo.MyTable SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Excel 8.0;Database=C:Documents and SettingsMyNameDesktopmyspreadsheet.xls', [Sheet1$])
I was using ContentType="application/vnd.ms-excel" on my web site to display a datatable in an excel workbook on the client. It worked great. Now that I have upgraded to Office 2007 and vb.net 2010, I get a warning saying that the file is in a different format than specified by the file extension (.xls). I googled new ways of exporting data to excel, but have yet to find a good example. I usedMicrosoft.Office.Interop.Excel which worked great, except I read that you are not supposed to use this on a web server.

I have created an application that can store employees details, that part is not a problem and frankly is sorted, I have used a sql database to save my data, all information is displayed in TextBox controls on my main form.
The part I am struggling with is creating 2 buttons.
The first button I want to be able to import data from an excel file into my data set

I'm creating a windows application using visual studio. My code is in visual basic. I want to enter a "Browse" button where the user will click on it and select an excel file from his computer. Then,for each column of the excel file, I want to create an arraythat will contain the same data with the column.Only the first sheet will be necessary and it will have specific number of collumns. I won't know the number of the rows, I will be needing a counter for these as well. My object is to have these data as arrays and to be able to make some calculations.

View 8 RepliesI'm creating a VB.Net application that stores data in a SQLite backend. The data comes in excel workbooks that the user can import from. Each workbook has one worksheet (about 30,000 rows) that gets reformated a bit and imported to a new table. What's the most efficient way to do this?
I'm currently reading in the entire range from Excel into a 2D array. Looping over the rows in this array and adding each row to a long SQL statement that gets executed every thousand rows. But this is painfully slow both on the looping through the array bit and the pushing to the SQLite step.
Code below:
'First open the xls reformater book and read in our data
Dim xlApp As New Excel.Application
Dim xlWorkBook As Excel.Workbook

I have a problem with the function below. If anybody knows of a simpler way to accomplish the same results,The problem that I have with this function is that sometimes, not always, it keeps the Excel process running and when this happens I can run the function again until I kill the Excel process manually.
Another problem with this function is that it is slow if the Excel sheet contains a lot of data.
And also I can't get this function to read all the sheets in the Excel workbook and put the contents of each sheet in a separate data table in my dataset.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to import and read data in from an Excel file that is being updated every half second by way of a DDE Link from RSLinx Gateway,which I think is a default setting, though that data only changes every few minutes. There are 5 rows and 8 columns of data that I am reading in.Each column is a different tester starting with the second row, Testers 1 through 7. The first column has titles that describe the data coming in from the DDE links.
Each column has 5 rows of data related to the tester.I know how to display the data which I will post my code for below, but as far as reading the data and determining whether or not the part was good or bad, based on a boolean value, I am stuck.I would also like to save the data into a different excel file after determining the status of the part so that we can look at past data.

View 9 Repliesto setup daily import of data from excel file into SQL database - preferrably through Visual Studio project (Visual Basic 2008).
