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.
I'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.
View 3 Repliesis 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 RepliesI want to define a range in Excel, but I do NOT want to use "A" or "D" references for columns. I am making a table, and to set it's range I use:
Code:
.Range("A1:D4")
However, at the time i write the code I do not know how many columns will be involved, so I don't know if "D" is the end column. For rows this is fine, as i could write this:
Code:
.Range("A" & i & ":D" & j)
But how do I do this for columns? I really would rather not have to convert my integer number for the end column to text. If I know that the table should go from row 1 to 5 and column 1 to 10, how to I select this range?
I have formulas in certain cells and happens to be part of the Excel range that I pull into a vb.net array and when I write the array back out to the Excel Range, I loose all the formulas in it.Is there an option to retain formulas in a .net array?
View 3 RepliesI'm inserting data into excel sheets and after i fill each sheet I want to sum a column so select the data and add a formula to a cell.

I have been trying to find a way to link VB .Net and excel in real-time. Using the COM and IRTDServer I have been able to send data from VB .Net to excel live (basic RTD server client), but I have not been able to find a way for the client to then publish back to the server real time, i.e. a cell that is changing based on a number of variable to be published back to the server and out to other clients real time.

I have upgraded to Visual Studio because of the jobs I am to carry out. So I am translating all the codes from "VBA" to "VB.NET" (Visual Basic 2008)But I haven't been able to use "Find Method" in VB.NET. I am using Microsoft Office XP Standart Edition (2002 Version). I downloaded and installed Office XP PIAs. After that I referenced them in my project. I used the code Code:Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop.ExcelBut I can't do what I want Now, how can I use "Find Method" in Visual Basic 2008 to find a text in an excel range in one of my workbooks?
I am importing data from an Excel spreadsheet into an array. I want to search the array to find the location of each "cell" with text that contains a certain string (e.g. "MyTestString"). So far the best I can do is loop through each element and test it using CStr, but the code takes too long to execute (please assume all variables are properly declared):
[Code]...
(1) Is there a better way than looping through each element, such as a built-in function or a lambda that will return an array containing *the location of* all string matches?
(2) Would it be faster to convert the Object array to a String array rather than using CStr on each element? If so, what is the fastest way to convert a 2-dimensional Object array to a String array?
I've considered using Excel's Find function instead, but would prefer to limit the number of Interop calls to Excel.

In VBA / VB.NET you can assign Excel range values to an array for faster access / manipulation. Is there a way to efficiently assign other cell properties (e.g., top, left, width, height) to an array? I.e., I'd like to do something like: Dim cellTops As Variant : cellTops = Application.ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Top..The code is part of a routine to programmatically check whether an image overlaps cells that are used in a workbook. My current method of iterating over the cells in the UsedRange is slow since it requires repeatedly polling for the top / left / width / height of the cells.I'm going to go ahead an accept Doug's answer as it does indeed work faster than naive iteration. In the end, I found that a non-naive iteration works faster for my purposes of detecting controls that overlap content-filled cells. The steps are basically:
(1) Find the interesting set of rows in the used range by looking at the tops and heights of the first cell in each row (my understanding is that all the cells in the row must have the same top and height, but not left and width)
(2) Iterate over the cells in the interesting rows and perform overlap detection using only the left and right positions of the cells.[code]
Following code below. I will explane what it does and it needs to do.
Its a query that fills a gridview. Everything thats in the gridview needs to be exported to a excelsheet.

It need to pick up each line but it only picks up the first line and duplicate's it.

I'm attempting to copy cells, one at a time, from an Excel 2003 (or 2007) spreadsheet to a Word 2003 (or 2007) table. I'd like the code to be version-agnostic, and so am using late binding. The formatting of the contents of the Excel cell, such as color, underline, strike-through, needs to be preserved. My approach is to use a Word doc as a template. It has a table at the top which I can copy to the end of the doc, add rows as needed, and fill in the word table cells with the data from the excel spreadsheet. Unfortunately, all the formatting disappears. All I get is the text itself.
View 2 RepliesI would like to update an Excel cell using the cell name, such as "A1", instead of using the row and column, such as (3,2). I haven't been able to do it. Here is the code I used to update the cell by row and column. How would this code be updated so that it updates the cell by cell name instead?
[Code]....
following error message:
Method not found: Void Excel.Range.set_Value(System.Object,System.Object)
It appears that when one creates an instance of Excel, using CreateObject, (Late binding), the suggested Excel closing function (with GC.collect etc) does not work. I have tried several suggestions, and the only one that works is process.kill method. Do you see any problem in using this? BTW: the reason we are using late binding is that we cannot use Office PIAs....not sure which version of Office would be installed on the client site. We work with O2003, but the client might still be at 2000 or 2002.

Ok basically what I need to do is the following:Read FirstExcelDoc (attached)For every row in that: Retrieve data from sql server db based on info in the Orange columns of FirstExcelDoc Let's say I retrieved data elements A, B, C, D, and E from sql server. Then I need to enter those same data elements A, B, and C in another excel spreadsheet (which has formulas etc) After inputing A, B, and C in that spreadsheet, read a couple of calculated fields and compare those results to data elements D and E retrieved originally from SQL Server DB. Finally, output the results in the Blue columns of the FirstExcelDoc spreadsheet for that row.Loop through and do the same thing for row 2 of the FirstExcelDoc and keep on until you see "END TEST" in the FirstExcelDoc.
I'm looking for a method of doing this efficiently. I have read several articles over the past few days as well as those from Mike R. but just need some direction to get started on this.To start of I'm looking for whether to read the entire FirstExcelDoc spreadsheet or just read the info for first policy number(2nd row) and process it and write out the blue column info for that row and then loop through and come back and read the second policy number (3rd row) etc... Please attach a code snippet for either way of reading the data.
I'm using excel via interop in application.Sometimes users kill application that created excel instance and that results in excel instance sitting in memory without any chance of disposing it.First I tried to tackle this using ROT(running object table) looks like not all instances of excel are registered there.Than I tried to somehow mark excel process after it is started via interop.[code]This works as long as excel is visible but in my case excel window is invisible.All I need is to somehow mark process that started via automation with the parent PID, so that later I can kill it if parent does not exist.

We have a vb program which is run on our server by scheduled task every day. The program opens about 30 excel files, refreshes the data connections, pivot tables and then saves the document in another location.
This may run fine for a couple days but sooner or later the process starts crashing, usually with this error: RPC_E_SERVERFAULT.
My question is, Is it expected that continually opening/closing/refreshing workbooks will inevitably cause the Excel object to crash at some point.
i was wondering if someone could give me the final explanation on what i might be doing wrong here.I spent a lot of time reading around the net and the forum about how to add Threading capabilities to a VB project.
Nos, i've got .NET 4 installed, and i've added the system.tsr and mscorlib.dll files as reference in, say, Excel 2007 (see screenshot).However, when i try to make a thread with anything as basic as "Dim Thread1 As System.Threading.Thread", i get a user-defined type not found error.Indeed, when i use the object browser to see what's in the System file, theres nothing remotely linked to any Threading, and in the mscorlib file, nothing under "Threading" either, just a few Thread related functions, but nothing defining a data type
