Let User Specify Excel Column To Import

Dec 2, 2009

I have a function within a class that imports an Excel sheet into an arraylist. I have overcome the problem of asking the user if there is a header or not. Now I want to ask the user which column is the data in. Here is my basic code for getting the header Yes/No and this is handled with a simple MessageBox... but of course this cannot be used to return a numeric value such as (0) being column #1. So I'm thinking I need a special form to pop up which the user will enter the the column being 1,2,3,4,5... etc. Of course subtracting "one" 1-1=0 is column 1 and 2-1=1 is column 2, etc.

Here's how I handled the header issue with a message box:
Private Sub ValidateCriteria()
If m_header = "" Then
GetHeader()
If m_header = "" Then Throw New Exception("Do you want to specify header row before importing?")
End If
[Code] .....

Import CSV File Where Column Headers Are In Row?

Aug 31, 2010

I have a csv file that is being sent to me in this format[code]...

Import An Excel File Into SQL Server?

Sep 11, 2009

Everything seems to imports ok until i look at the data in more detail, this is when I notice its imported the data but in the wrong order.

for some reason when I look at the db table all records are in the wrong order, and strangely enough it seems to be a different order every time I import things.

Is there a way to force the routine to import the data in the same order as the it is in the excel file?, because at the minute it seems to have a mind of its own[code]...

Import An Excel WorkSheet Into A Datatable?

May 13, 2010

I have been asked to create import functionality in my application. I am getting an excel worksheet as input. The worksheet has column headers followed by data. The users want to simply select an xls file from their system, click upload and the tool deletes the table in the database and adds this new data.
