Using VB To Open A .csv File With "excel.workbooks.open"
May 10, 2010Using VB to open a .csv file with "excel.workbooks.open", editing it, then saving as .csv.
Even though it is saved as .csv, it is still identified as .xls.
Is there an alternate way to open this .csv file so that when it is saved as .csv the excel application actually identifies it as a comma delimited, not a spreadsheet?
.net - Open A File From Multiple Processes?
Oct 6, 2010Basically, I'm trying to get a program to behave in the following way:First instance of the program opens up on PC1, opens a file for Read/Write access and then acts as the master program, doing a bunch of work on some other files I don't want a whole bunch of users accessing at once.Second instance of the program starts up, tries to open the file for Read/Write access, fails, enters Slave mode, opens the file for Read access, and periodically reads the status of the other files from this file.
That's the plan, anyway. If anyone can suggest a better way to handle the master/slave decision-making.Anyway, as a lead-up to implementation, I've got two instances of Visual Studio open. One is running a project called "GetFile", the other is running a project called "TryGetFile"."GetFile" has a Private myStream As IO.FileStream object and opens the test file using this line:
myStream = IO.File.Open("\[network path] est.txt", IO.FileMode.OpenOrCreate,
IO.FileAccess.ReadWrite, IO.FileShare.ReadWrite)
This works fine and, as far as I can tell, should leave this file accessible for further Read/Write access by any other process, which is fine for this stage of the testing."TryGetFile" also has a Private myStream As IO.FileStream object, but it attempts the following open code:
myStream = IO.File.Open("\[network path] est.txt", IO.FileMode.Open,
IO.FileAccess.Read, IO.FileShare.Read)
This doesn't work at all. I get an IOException, which reports that test.txt is opened by another process and I'm not allowed to play with it.Basically, I don't see what the problem is; I don't think "TryGetFile" is asking for any file access which "GetFile" forbids it from having. As far as I can see, "GetFile" shouldn't be forbidding any kind of access at all...

How To Get Names Of All Visible Excel Workbooks
May 4, 2011Trying to get names of all visible open excel workbooks. I found code online, that is below.I suspect the code is not working for me because either: I didn't include a reference (in addition to the MS Excel 12.0 Object reference and in addition to the Microsoft Office Interop reference, both were made) or something else basic being missed. i have been using the "early-bound" code below that is recognizing oExcelApp as visible...however, the open excel workbooks that I have open, are not being recognized.
I am using Windows XP and VB in Visual Studio 2010.Here is what I found online; disregard the late-bound if doesn't apply:

Combining Worksheets ( In Pivottable Format) In Multiple Workbooks Into 1 Worksheet In A New Workbook Which Will Auto Update?
Dec 23, 2009I have 2 workbooks( Book1 and Book2) with multiple sheets.I am only interested in one of the worksheets in the workbooks(both the worksheets names are the same).The thing is that the data is in the form of pivot tables, so each time i have to filter according to specific categories, copy and paste into another new workbook.The thing is column headings in both the worksheets are different,BUT BOTH the worksheets data must be combined into 1 single worksheet( row after row).
Meaning in Book1, my columns are in the form of Cost, revenue,margin and in book2, the columns are in the form of Cost,Revenue, Profit Margin %.... That means i must add a profit margin % column in Book1 and a Margin column in Book2 before I combine the data into a single worksheet. Each week, new data gets added into Book1 and Book2, so I wish to automate this by creating a code, so that when the source data changes, my new workbook's data also changes.

Log / Store Info And Display In Sortable Multiple Column ListBox
Mar 31, 2011I am wriing a vb.net windows application to log and store information. then display it in a sortable multiple column listbox (I personally like FlexGrid by Component One). However... I am not sure how to go about storing the information. Should I go with a .sdf file database, registry, simply storing them in a file, or some other method?
What I need is to be able to:
read/write/delete from it
read possibly up to a 20mb file and sorting it without a lot of lag
be transported to multiple systems and maintain these writes (installed on many systems)
I know I could split up the reading/writing to anther thread. Even to other .DLL's and whatnot. But as for storing. Not sure what the best option is.

Multiple Processes With Same Name?
Apr 29, 2010I have a need to search for a specific process in task manager and attach (dock) my application to the window for that process. I have this working just fine. The problem I'm having is that sometimes this process may be running more than once (for example: running two Internet Explorers would put two iexplore.exe entries in Task Manager).
Is there a way to get the one that was opened first? I'm not sure how they get "sorted" in the Process list, but currently I am retrieving the first occurrence of the process and docking to it, but I'm finding that it isn't always the correct one. How can I make it always dock to the process entry that was opened first?

Get A Listbox To Populate A List Of Processes?
Dec 30, 2009I'm trying to get a listbox to populate a list of processes that are neither running nor in the "blocked" list. This code is in a timer, so it also checks if the process is already in the list.
For Each proc In Process.GetProcesses
Dim allowed As Boolean = True
For Each item In Blked.Items

It is strange because this is populating the list, but adding the same process over and over again, even though I seem to have the checks in there.

Monitoring Que With Multiple Processes

View 6 RepliesLaunch A New App And Remove The Calling App From Any Open Processes?
Apr 8, 2011I am writing an updater for our application and having an issue overwriting the files. Here is a long drawn out example. Test.exe is our main app and update.exe is our updater application. Test.exe needs to launch update.exe and then close test.exe. Update.exe will download the new updates from our website to a temp directory and then copy in the new updates. The problem I have is when Test.exe has an update and I try to copy in the new file it says it can't because test.exe is still in use. I "believe" this happens because test.exe is still running in the appdomain because update.exe was launched from test.exe before I closed that app.
