This is in vb 2005, and I would like to be able to click a button (i.e. export to excel, import from excel) and do this.If you need any more information then just let me know.
1)How do you export the data that is displayed in a datagrid to Excel.
2)How do you import data from an excel file, and fill the datagrid with that information.
I have a weird situation. I have a C++ code that overloads the +,-,* operators and exports them in a .DLL file. Now, I want to import those overloaded operators from within VB.NET code. So it should be like this:
<DllImport("StructDLL.dll")> Public Shared Function
Operator +(ByVal a1 As A, ByVal a2 As A) As A
End Function
So what I'm trying to do above it just import the lovely overloaded operator + from the DLL.Note that the operator is already overloaded from inside the DLL, so should I import it as a Function or as an Operator like this?
<DllImport("StructDLL.dll")> Public Shared
Operator +(ByVal a1 As A, ByVal a2 As A) As A
End Operator
The overloaded plus operator is supposed to add structs. So the DLL is programmed to work on structs (C++) and I want to import it in VB.NET to work on Structures.

View 1 RepliesI'm brand new to this forum. i have a question. i wrote some software a while back and now have a few new features I need to implement. this software currently makes use of "application settings" to store all of it's settings. Which works just fine.
I have a client that has about 40 users. He wants to be able to share his settings (that he set up in his copy of the software) with all of users. Preferably by distributing a copy of a config file that they would be able to import into there software.
I've seen a lot of posts over time relating to importing and exporting CSV. Most of the answers involve using TextReader.readline and String.split, which will not work with any but the simplest data. When you are writing for users who have the expectation that your application will work with anything they export from Excel, you will have to cover all the CSV bases.
I hope that this post will give you a clear idea of what you're involving yourself in when you decide you need to read a CSV file. The characteristics of CSV data are:The comma character is used to separate the fields. (This is obvious, but I thought I'd start with a couple of obvious points to warm up) The last field on the line is ended by the end-of-line character or the physical end of the file.Any field that contains commas, double-quotes or control characters will be surrounded by double-quote marks. Any double-quote marks within the field will be "escaped" with an extra double-quote character. For instance, the value Paul "Chuck" Norris would be converted to "Paul ""Chuck"" Norris".After the opening double-quote ANY character is valid. Including line breaks. This is why you can't use readline.I have a parser class that works nicely and I'll post that on this thread in a little while, along with some notes on using it.
I want to export data from a DataGridView to a CSV/text file. I then also want to be able to load that same CSV/text file and populate that same DataGridView at a later point in time. My information is loaded into columns in the DataGridView. That is, I am not using rows to represent records, I am using columns. As such, I need to load all the data in each column and export this, by column to the CSV/Text file. Likewise, when I load the control from the CSV/text file, I need to load each column with this information.How do you export/import from/to a DataGridView controlHow do you organize the data in the CSV/File
View 5 RepliesI 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 2 RepliesI am building an ordering system for my job. The idea is that the customer will put in a stage name for an item. That stage name is then interpreted by the program.The product id and the amount the customer wants to order is placed in a list box on the form. There are a couple of buttons, ADD, REMOVE, CLEAR, and EXPORT. The user input is handled by input boxes. When the user pushes the EXPORT button, excel should open and list out the interpreted product codes with the corresponding amount to order. I can get excel to open, but I can not get excel to display more than one line. It will display the first product, but then it comes up with an unhandled exception.I can not figure out how to get excel to return down a row and display the next product within the list box.

View 2 RepliesI am exporting a datagridveiw to excel, this works fine. As of now there are columns and headers that i needed to add to the excel data that did not exist in the datagridveiw. This also works fine, the data is held in cells a2:f2, now i want to take this data in these columns and filldown to the last filled row of the excel sheet. In this example lets say i have 49 rows of information, i want to take a2:f2 and copy it down to the 49 row of the excel form. Below is the entire code of the export process, i have noted where i need this code to go with , i am not sure if i should just use a for loop, which i have tried to no avail.

I have a datagridview(DGV) which contains data based on a user selections from a pre-defined dataset
In point form:
User starts program
program builds datatable
user opens file and program read all data from file into the dataset.datatable
user defines the data they want to see
program displays datagrid based on dataset.datatable and user choices. (basically it displays the whole dataset and removes unwanted columns
ecords)
I want to be able to export the datagrid to excel (not sure which method yet). I have tried the excelexporter component i found somewhere on the msdn forums (it exports the data to look exactly like the datagridview) but its painfully slow. It exports something in the region of 100 records per minute. Most of the time, the datagridview can contain anywhere from 3000-32,000 records. As such, at 100 records per minute, the excel generation can take updwards of 50minutes. Unacceptably slow for the purposes of the program.
What do people recommend as the best method to quickly dump the contents of a datagrid into excel. By quickly, im talking at the speed of about 10,000 records per minute. In all honesty, anything over 5000 records per minute will be fast enough, but the quicker the better!
Is there a way of creating a new dataset.datatable that is built of the contents of the datagridview and then building an excel sheet by connecting to the new dataset?
I would like to be able to export to Excel 2000-2003 at a minimum, but if i can do excel 97 as well it won't hurt.

excelWorkBook.Worksheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, ActivePrinter:="Adobe PDF",' printtofile:=True, prtofilename:=strOutputName
but nothing prints. The app exports to pdf works in test, but not when I move it to production. I have to remote into the machine that runs the app, so my printers from my local pc are "attched" to the remote session, can this have something to do with no output. The remote machine does not have the Adobe print drivers installed.

I am filling a datagridview with very lengthy results. Roughly 60k rows on average. I am filling them via an oracle database using a table adapter. The records then have a filter placed on them in the datagridview so the results displayed are a bit different.
My problem: I built an export to excel function which populated a dataset and then red through it and wrote to excel. Bad idea with the amount of records I am using. I tried just writing the records straight to a csv file using streamwriter but I don't very much like this way.
My proposal: I would like to fill an array from the datagridview and then be able to dump the array into excel. However I am having some trouble finding examples on creating an array from a datagridview.
I have a windows application that exports data from a datagridview into excel. Now this data can change based on what a user does in the datagridview itself. An example would be out of 1,000 files the user can sort through using DataGridViewAutoFilter to search for a handful of rows, say 50 or 143 or whatever.
The user then clicks on the button which exports to the excel worksheet. I'm looking for some help on getting a subtotal count at the bottom of the export. I would like to be able to have some additional code in place that would subtotal the records that the user exports into the worksheet. Let me show you what I have so far:

View 5 RepliesIm doing a project with .Net 4.0, Visual Studio 2010 and Visual Basic .Net.I needed to add a Chart (the new one included by default in .Net 4.0) that represents temperatures evolving with time, so I added the drawing points in the elapsed event of the timer every second.The graph is doing somewhat ok, but I need another functionality, and this is, every time I stop the timer, save the graph in an excel (.XLS or .XLSX) file. As by default the chart provides with a collection of the type "System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.DataPointCollection", I would like to know if there is a way to create an xml and put the info of those collections in the excel file.I have looked around but I didn't find any similar example, last thing im thinking about is to use an iterative way to manually write in the excel file, but maybe its too much time consuming as the iteration will be of several thousands seconds.
