I'm writing VB code in Visual Basic 2008 Express and can't seem to figure out how to create a new instance of Excel with VB code. The most common answer appears to be setting an object variable to 'Excel.Application', but that gives an error (Type 'Excel.Application' is not defined).

I am not sure I should be asking a question like this. But while going thru the thread I could understand assigning values from Excel cell when you know cells address. I am trying to find out syntax for activecell, activecell. row, activecell. offset etc.

View 7 RepliesI've managed to work out how to read EXCEL cells via static values. Ideally I would like my application to check the third column of the EXCEL sheet and if there are no entries on a given row, it should display the coresponding row of colums 1 and 2...for example if (C,3) contains no entry then get values of (A,3) and (B,3)...then mark (C,3) as pending by writing a value to (C,3). Here is my code at the moment

I am exporting text to a worksheet with fixed column widths and there instances where the text in the cell does not fit and will obviously overlap to the cell on the right.
I'd like to prevent that overlapping by reducing the font size of the cell if it is necessary. The problem is how to check if the text does not fit.
I would like from a certain url, to launch an excel file, have the user fill some cells and then return the value to a database by aspx perhaps.

is there a way of getting the screen coordinates of individual cells on an open Excel sheet, what I want to ultimately do is pass in a cell range say, "A5" into a function and watch the mouse cursor move slowly to that cell. I know this might seem a weird request. I already have a mouse move function but that accepts the x/y coords in pixel terms where excel using .TOP and .LEFT give an entirely different format?
View 1 RepliesThe software company I work for offers data conversion as a service for new clients who have previously used other similar software. I've written a VB.NET application to automate common conversion operations, and have separate logic between known vendors.particular file layout has become rather common, but due to the nature of how this particular competitor's application stores information, certain fields mean one thing for one client, and another for a different client.Certain elements within this vendor's format change every time, so I've written the application to account for that. Because some data fields mean different things to different vendors, I have to change my mapping code every time. This wasn't an issue when I had one of these every six months or so, but these are becoming much more common and I would much rather find a way to further automate this process.

How do we automate the process of deriving an Interface from our already-designed class?In other words, I wrote in completion my entire class and now desire to automatically construct its interface.

View 9 RepliesI have a VB 2008 Forms application which does Powerpoint automation -- I am opening owerpoint in a minimized window from within my app and am trying to periodically put update messages in a textbox on my main form while the automation is running (it takes a few minutes to complete), but my form window does not want to show these messages until the powerpoint operations are finished. It seems as if I need to force a window refresh or something on my windows form, but I'm unclear how to do that. Below is some code that I'm using that illustrates what I'm trying to do. When I run it, "Step One / Step Two / Step Three" do not show up on my textbox until after the Powerpoint automations are over.

We have a VB 2005 program that reads data from a database and builds an Excel output file to be emailed. This works fine from my computer but when we put it on the server it fails on the Excel functionality.
The error is: Unhandled Exception: System.Runtim.InteropServices.COMException
Although Excel is not installed on the server we did also build a Setup program to install our program. It copies the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excell.dll to the server folder with the exe.I thought the setup program should register the Excel DLL and the program should work even if the server does not have Office or Excel installed.
