exporting a datagrid to Excel for the last few days. I have found quite a few, mostly done through C and the ones I have found using VB have not worked out. Would anyone have a link to a good tutorial online for exporting a datagrid using vb.net? My college project is approaching its deadline quick enough.

This code works well however when data is exported to excel in one field some values are wrong. Instead for example populating 16-12-19 it populates 43815, 01-03-99 it populates 36220. Again, if the sort code is like 20-72-68 or 60-01-22 it is populated the same way, which is correct. If the value is a date lookalike then this problem appears, but if not then the exact value as displayed on the grid is shown in excel.
I inserted the code (highlighted in red) to set all the fields as text values. Right, it is exported and when excel spreadsheet is opened the field property is text, but the problem still exists. Why doesn't excel display it as it is displayed on the datagrid and database, instead of changing it even when set text.

I am working with Vb.net and this code below works fine. However, when I review the data exported to excel I have a problem with one particular field i.e., sort code. Sort code in the database is in the format 00-00-00. Therefore if it is 12-11-09 or 11-01-66, a look alike of a valid date it is disaplyed as 12/11/2009 and 11/01/1966 in excel after the export. Excel thinks its a date which is incorrect. I expect it to show 12-11-09 and 11-01-66.

I am exporting data from vb.net to excel and it is dropping the leading zero when its displayed on excel. How can I avoid the dropping of leading zero? I read the solution of adding a single quote but it makes my excel sheet column ugly. Also users will complain if they see a single quote on zip code field.vb.net code
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", attachment)
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
Response.Charset = ""
the stored procedure outputs XML and it is transformed by XSLT before it is displayed on EXCEL
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

adding a single quote or manipulating excel sheet with column formatter (general/numbers ) etc. I don't want user to make any changes on excel to get the display properly when the excel is displayed from web page it should be all set with proper formatting. also we have no control over client excel software?

I have an asp:table which I want to exported to excel. One of my fields are alpha numeric and when exported to excel the leading 0s are stripped off. After going through this thread: Validation (CSS 2.0): 'mso-number-format' is not a known CSS property name I would like to use the css method "mso-number-format:@;.But the css is not exported to excel. I just tried to test it with simpler css things like bold font etc but its not getting carried over. I can see that if I surround my asp:Label with tags this change gets carried over to the excel but not the css bold . Other solutions in other thread does not work for me as ="00111" shows up as desired in excel but in the web form it shows up as ="00111" which is not what i want.

View 17 RepliesI am writing an import program to import data from an access database to a SQL database.The table structure in the SQL and Access are the exact same with the same field names.I was wondering if there was a quick way to get the data into the SQL table without have to loop through each record?Currently:1. User selects the file2. Use a oledb connection i load the data into a DataAdapter3. Datadapter is bound to the DatagridNormally i would loop through each record in the datagrid and insert it into the table but i was wondering seeing as the column names are the same if i could save the messing about with loops and insert statements using 30 column names.
Code to load the Data is below
ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & database & ";Jet OLEDB:Database Password=bekdemir"

I want to start off and say, I figured out how to take the content of a datagrid and put it in a print document. However, the length of the page changes based on the amount of rows in the grid. It never goes to a second page. How can I get this to go to a new page after 'x' amount of rows? If this is not the best way to achieve this, then could anybody point me in the direction of a sample code that can export the content of a datagrid (not datagridview) to a crystal report?
View 2 RepliesI am using asp.net oledb to export information to excel file. I encounter problems when the information to export becomes too big, in this case the code I have given below, the excel file generated becomes an empty spreadsheet.If I changed the loop to 1123 for insertion of the rows. The generated excel file is fine, 1125 rows, and 4 columns shown.A test program in windows form is also working fine regardless of how many rows.[code]I couldn't find a solution to my problem as well. What I did eventually was to run the process using another separate windows service. The code works perfectly fine running from a windows form or service program, but not asp.net, not sure why.
View 1 RepliesI have this issue that occurs with me and driving me crazy i have a report that contains thousands of records and i need to export it to excel , but the excel normal extension .xls
is showing missing records at the end of the file , so i save my file as an .xlsx extension it saves correctly but when i open the file it generates an error
"Excel cannot open the file '<var>filename</var>.xlsx' because the file format for the file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file."but when i test the file i drag it and open it in an empty notepad all the records shows up correctly
We use a small bit of excel exporting code in our app code at work to export XML controls from our ASP pages into an excel format using the following code:
Public Shared Sub Export(ByRef xml As Xml, ByVal filename As String)
Dim response As HttpResponse = HttpContext.Current.Response()
response.Clear()
[code]....
This is all fine, except we've encountered a rather frustrating bug. If the XML control has a link in it then the export code is called again. We have a button which will say "Export to Excel" from the .aspx page which simply calls ExcelExport.Export(Xml1, "MyFileName") which is in a LinkButton click event.Here's the order of events based on the form submit (selecting filters)
Enter filters
Submit form
Page_Load occurs
[code]....
So the user submits a form which loads up the XML control in a nice viewable XSLT page. Then they click "export to excel" which will give them the page in excel instead, then they click on the XSLT page, for example a link, but the save dialog for excel comes up again. We've gone through the series of events, and if we do not call the excel exporter it goes through the series of events as normal. If we do call the excel exporter it will go through the page load event and unexpectedly go into the link button click event.
