NET Method Equivalent To NETWORKDAYS In Excel?
Jul 7, 2009I'm trying to do some date math in Visual Basic. The NETWORKDAYS function in Excel is exactly what I need. Is there an equivalent or similar method available in .NET?

I have a project that has a need to display a Excel file in second window, but because other controls are needed, simply launching excel is not sufficient. Right now I do not know if the target machines have excel installed but I know with certainty that if they do it would be 2010, is there any method or library that allows you frame your own form around an excel window?

View 3 RepliesI have an Excel VBA function that takes a number of optional parameters, including an optional Range:
Function DazBeta(A As Range, Z As Range, _
B As Integer, _
Optional Freq As Integer = 1, _
Optional c As Double = 0, _
Optional r As Range, _
Optional Pct As Boolean = True, _
Optional Label As Integer = 1)
I am translating to VB.NET, and it's the optional Range that is giving me grief because VB.NET does allow optional Ranges. Or rather, optional parameters must provide a default value. What is the recommended way to change the VB.NET function signature so that the code is callable from an Excel cell as a UDF? (The VB.NET implements a UDF, the assembly is registered as a COM server, and the Excel spreadsheet is told of this server and type library, allowing the VB.NET code to be called from an Excel spreadsheet cell.) I have other compilation problems, so I have not been able to explore this. I am thinking that accepting an optional Object (default value Nothing) might work and then I could cast the Object to a Range. Alternatively, if there were a default value that could be specified with an optional Range, that would work, too.

Im struggling on how to open an excel workbook without one of two problems.
1. After the first workbook is opened and I close the workbook, if another is opened the worksheet area is "transparent", as in, you can see the desktop or any open app behind excel.
2. Closing excel and opening another workbook after X times (4+?) via the vb.net app I use causes the computer to reboot.
I am stuck thinking it is the method used to open excel within the app.The code below has two methods, both produce the same affect. One method is blocked (makes it easy to test either one).[code]I have two buttons that open workbooks, both have identical code less the workbook requirements.Is there a better or best method to use for opening excel workbooks from vb.net?

View 1 RepliesI am loading a considerable amount of data from SQL into Excel. For specific reasons, I need to use the Resize method with an array when loading data to Excel.I have found a condition where the size of a cell/row causes the Resize method to crash. I have not found any doco anywhere that shows a Resize limit. My array is OK. My code is OK. But, the data for one row is very large - one field that I am trying to load to a cell has 1097 characters. I have breakpointed the code to assure that this one is the culprit.[code]Does anyone know of any size limits when using Resize. The total number of bytes being written to the row is 1402.Anyone know limits on length for Resize or "overrides" to handle this?
View 1 RepliesWell, I've searched numerous threads and I'm stumped. Though my VB.net experience is newb status.I'm interacting with Excel Workbooks/worksheets with:
Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
Now I'm fairly adept with getting data from the excel sheet with no problem.But each and every time I quit my widows form, or execute a new command_button click to repeat an operation, in the task manager, excel.exe then opens up a new instance.Releasing the the Excel COM object seems to offer a bit of head scratching.I realize that you can get your form to activate and retrieve data from whatever spreadsheet has been directed to be opened, but I can't seem to put it back and close it correctly.I have read about the Marshal. release object methods and garbage collection with no luck so far.Do I need to import another liberary that completes this operation? I would asssume this would be taken care of as apart of the:
Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
close excel instances opened up by my windows form? Somethig like this:
Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
Dim xlWorkBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim xlWorkSheet As Excel.Worksheet
[code]....
(so that it is no longer looked at as "read only" when the spread sheet is opened up from directly from excel)As A minor work around, I've teminated it from the task Bar with proc.kill() but this does not help because my ultimate goal is to just simply realease the excel sheet when my windows form is finished getting its data.This following code does not seem to work.
releaseObject(xlApp)
releaseObject(xlWorkBook)
releaseObject(xlWorkSheet)
This is driving me crazy.

I am looking for some guidance with the most optimal or efficient way to export a dataset to an excel file. I have searched the forums and found a number of methods to do this. However, the code I am currently using is very inefficient as it is itterating through the rows and columns to create the excel file. The app I am working on needs to be able to create 50 or so excel files each with 500+ rows and 40-50 columns. This method seems to inefficient for my use
View 9 RepliesI have tried several versions of this with no luck. The casting of the worksheet works as my data is entered in other parts, but I have a section where I need to add data 1 column right of the cell containing the 'str(0)' value.

I have 2 forms => frmBase and frmChild
In frmBase i want to create a method Called StartWorking() and i want frmChild to inherit this method.
But here is the tricky thing: when frmChild.StartWorking is called i would like the following => without calling MyBase.StartWorking()
I want frmBase.StartWorking() to be executed first and after a test in frmBase.StartWorking if blnValue is true then frmChild.StartWorking has to be activated. if blnValue is false that frmChild.StartWorking cannot be activated.
I have nine pictures that I need to animate -I need to use the ToString method and a counter to concatenate a file name into a string variable from the Image.FromFile method. Once the counter reaches its maximum value, and the last picture is displayed, the counter should be reset to zero or one depending on how the first image file has been name. Also a static counter variable should be incremented in the time routine. what I have so far -- I know what I have to do; however, I just do not know how to code this properly.. Right now I have this going thru a button procedure but it needs to go through a timer.

When I am loading an Assembly dynamically, then calling a method from it, I appear to be getting the method from Assembly executing before the code in the method that is calling it.It does not appear to be executing in a Serial manner as I would expect. Can anyone shine some light on why this might be happening. Below is some code to illustrate what I am seeing, the code from the some.dll assembly calls a method named PerformLookup. For testing I put a similar MessageBox type output with "PerformLookup Time: " as the text. What I end up seeing is:
First: "PerformLookup Time: 40:842"
Second: "initIndex Time: 45:873"

The code runs nice, but it has a problem: After the user close the Excel application (click button X - note: no other instance of Excel exists), if you open the Windows's task manager, its possible to see the process Excel.exe.
If I open and close the Excel application, there is no process Excel.exe, but if I run my code with the Excel application openned, after the user close the Excel application, the process Excel.exe isn't finished.
