Quit An Excel Macro Externally (from A GUI Not From Macro)

Oct 21, 2010

I'm have a program (GUI) that interfaces with excel to execute macros. We're using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel to call/run the macros and this works great.What I can't figure out is a good way to cancel the macros from the GUI.One idea we had was to use the excel.application variable that runs the macros to write a "stop" value to a specific cell in the workbook, and in the macros (they are all mostly loops), check for the "stop" value in that cell. This crashes my GUI with this The program '[2188] BVLReports.vshost.exe: Managed' has exited with code -336589910 (0xebf00baa).And excel gets tied up, and won't respond. I know how to Exit Sub from within the macro if the "stop" value exists, so I don't need answers on how to check/cancel from inside the macro. Any ideas on a better way to write this "stop" value or a better way to cancel the macros externally?

Office Automation :: .NET Add-in Does Not Work With Excel 2002

Jan 22, 2009

I have created a C# .Net DLL add-in for Excel.When I try it on my home machine with WinXP and OfficeXP 2003 it works as expected. When I try it on a couple of machines at work with WinXP and OfficeXP2002 it does not work.I have spent 2 days solid reading up on this subject in general and I still cannot get to the bottom of the problem. As far as I can work out what I am trying to do should work with Excel 2002.

Some details:

- I am using Visual Studio EXPRESS 2008 (C#).

- The assembly is signed with a Strong Name Key File.

- I have installed the OfficeXP (2002) PIAs.

- I have created a class DLL in accordance with many MSDN and other internet posts.

- I have registered the DLL using RegAsm.exe and GACUtil.exe.

- I have added registry entries for Excel for CURRENT_USER so Excel should know about the DLL.

The DLL adds some Automation functions (Tools-Addins-Automation) which can be accessed in cells within Excel (for example you would enter =MultiplyFirstBySecond(2, 3) in a cell and get a result of 6) and also implements the IDTExtensibility2 methods so that when Excel is opened it creates a button on the toolbar which when pressed pops up a message box. It it this functionality (adding buttons with code behind them) that I want to expand on.I have attached the zips of the batch and registry files I have created to register the DLL in the GAC and in the registry. I have also attached a zip of the complete project. I would like to know if there is anything I should check with my machine's setup or my project or my registration/installation of DLLs, PIAs etc in order to make my DLL work on my Excel 2002 machine.

Formatting Excel - If I Try Using Style.numberformat With The Date And Time Formats, They Don't Change And Are Entered As If Didn't Change The Format?

Mar 11, 2011

I am throwing some data out into Excel and am having some formatting troubles. I have 5 columns (date, time, a long number I don't want displayed in scientific notation - text is fine, text, text). I can get it all working with numberformat, however I have to do them different ways.

Date works this way cell.numberformat = "m/d/yy" and it formats it to say 3/1/11

Time works this way cell.numberformat = "h:mm AM/PM" and it formats it to say 8:07 AM

For the long number cell.numberformat = "@" and it doesn't change the format and it gets displayed in scientific notation

BUT if I use cell.style.numberformat = "@" it works as it should, but it messes up all of the date and time cells. Apparently when you use style.numberformat, it doesn't just apply to the cell you're working with. If I try using style.numberformat with the date and time formats, they don't change and are entered as if I didn't change the format at all.

Excel To Powerpoint Macro - Copying Excel Range And Pasting As HTML Or Default In Powerpoint?

May 11, 2011

I'm trying to copy a Range from Excel and Paste the information in powerpoint in either the HTML or the default format, however, I am having some difficulties. I am able to get the code to work for pasting the Range as an OLE Object but nothing else. The problem with doing this is that having the embedded excel documents in the powerpoint makes the file extremely large and unstable. I just need to be able to paste the information without the embedded information where it is editable (so, not as a bitmap or picture).

With ppt2Slide
Sheets(index2).Activate
Range("CP12:CT" & RangeIndex2).Copy

Creating A Macro In Excel Using Vb?

Feb 24, 2010

I'm creating a macro in excel using vb?What the macro is doing is checking if the row and column headers are same, and if it is then I want it to save the row header (the date in this case) AND the value (a number) into an array, and this is done in a for loop and goes on.... I dont know if I should use 2-D array or a 1-D array that stores 2 values....Not sure at all !Then after the outer most FOR LOOP is done, I want to print those values stored in the array.

Here is what I have so far, this works actually however i'm using 2 seperate arrays, one to store the row header (the date) and another array to store the value. But really I want to make it simpler, shorter and use only one array that stores both of these values as we go through the for loop and at the end of the for loop, all the values from beginning which are stored can be printed out.

Here is my code :

Sub Test ()
Dim sys_arr() As String ' declaring the array to store the values
Dim sys_date_arr() As String 'declaring the array to store the dates

[code]....

This totally works but with 2 different arrays, all I want is just 1 single array (not sure if it is 2-dimensions or still stays as 1 dimension but with 2 different variables)... and then the array can store the date and variable correspondant to the date, and goes to the next row, and do same thing... So the output results should be like for eg :

2/12/2010 37
2/13/2010 41
2/14/2010 66
and so forth

Macro In Excel - Increasing Values By 10 Percent

Apr 25, 2010

I'm guessing the reason this macro isn't doing what I want it to is because of an error on my part in the code. Basically, I want the values in the cells pointed out in the code to be increased by 10% each time the button is pushed.

Here is the code:
Sub Add10percent()
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 2, 0.1
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 4, 0.1
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 6, 0.1

Find Repeated Keywork On A Cell - Excel Macro

Jun 29, 2012

On my VB excel macro, I am trying to create a code to search a key word on a specific row and to display the adjuscent 5 cells values in a text box. That keyword will be repeated here and there on that same row. But the adjuscent 5 cells value will be differ each time when the keyword matches.

For example: Row 20 has a word "We gave" (key word) in cell D20. I want a textbox to display the values of E20, F20, G20, H20, I20 in a text box. Then on cell M20, there will be another "We Gave". Then it should keep the value that it displayed in the text box earlier and to show the newer values of N20, O20, P20, Q20, R20.

Call/run Excel Macro Within A Separate Visual Studio Application?

Dec 14, 2010

I'm looking to call an excel macro (excel version 07) within a separate visual studio application (visual studio express 2010). Basically, a user clicks a browse dialog button to select a xls or xlsm file which is then added to a listbox. Next, I would like the macro to run when another button is clicked. The macro looks at the first column in excel and moves the listed .tif images from one folder to another. I referenced the excel libraries, but seem to be getting hung up on a few code statements (''''ERROR see code below). I would like to run the macro within visual studio for any selected excel file or add the macro somehow to the selected excel file and run it.

'Here is the button click procedure

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
filenames = lstFiles.SelectedItem

Office Automation :: Run Excel 2007 Macro From Custom Button

When any of those buttons are clicked, I simply want to run a macro (add-in) that will already be loaded when Excel is launched. The main examples I've seen create an Excel object in the VB code and then call the macro, but that seems like unnecessary overhead, since the custom buttons are are already loaded into Excel.

Excel 2007 Macro - Runtime Error 1004 After Saving And Re-opening A File

Oct 25, 2009

I have an Excel file with utilizes macros to allow a user to enter names of people and then double click on cells to enter ratings via radio buttons. When I open a blank file and enable the macros, I can add users, rate their skills using the radio buttons, etc. with no issue. I then SaveAs the file and continue working on it. once I Save and CLOSE the file, then go to re-open it, the trouble begins. Keep in mind, there is no alteration to the macros directly. Just entering data and using the form as intended. Here's what happens.

I reopen the file.I enter in the name of a person on one line. I go to the first box - double click on it.It is supposed to pop up a dialog box which allows me to choose a rating via radio button (as I had been doing before I closed the file). Instead, in that first column of ratings, it instead gives me the following error:

Runtime error '1004'Unable to set the LineStyle property of the Border class

When I hit "debug" this is the code it points to:

If ActiveCell.Column = leftb Then Range(Cells(ActiveCell.Row, leftb), Cells(ActiveCell.Row, rightb + 1)).Borders(xlEdgeTop).LineStyle = xlContinuous I have no idea why this would not work when I re-open the file!

note that when I go to click on the subsequent cells (there are 8 cells in which you provide ratings, moving across the columns with each cell) - the 2nd through 8th cells function fine. The dialog box pops up, the rating can be selected. it's just the FIRST cell that gives the issue What would possibly be the cause of this? We need users of this form to be able to save, close, and re-open it if needed.

Date Formatting In VB 2008?

Apr 4, 2009

have a really annoying VB 2008 problem and I'm hoping someone knows how to solve this. I implement the following code:

Code:
DispArrDate = MonthArr & "/" & DayArr & "/" & YearArr
DisplayArrDate.Text = DispArrDate.ToLongDateString

So basically, I'm getting date information from the user and trying to convert it into a date format, and show it to the user in a text box which is obviously named "DisplayArrDate", and "DispArrDate" is a date variable and "MonthArr" & "DayArr" & "YearArr" are strings which are always numbers because they are selected from a drop down combo box.

Now, the code works perfectly on my computer and some others, but for some unknown reason, on some computers, even if they have the same local date settings, it gives me the error: "Conversion from string "4/13/2009" to type 'Date' is not valid.", that's just one example, where "13" is obviously the day. I use the month/day/year format because, in the toturial I'm reading, it tells me, that no matter my local date settings, when using VB 2008, the month/day/year format should always be used and it will display a date in the local format automatically. It seems that on some computers, this isn't the case, and the month/day format is creating errors.
