Opening Excel From Specified Location?
Feb 14, 2010
I've been trying to figure this out myself, but have just run into an issue I can't resolve with searching and examples. I'm trying to open an excel file to read from it, and I've figured out how to open a NEW excel file. I can't, however, seem to figure out how to open an excel file that already exists.
Here is what I have so far:
Dim objApp As Excel.Application
Dim objBook As Excel._Workbook
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code]....

I have an MDI form with child forms which I open on it. The following statement in each form's load event places a child form in the location I want:
Me.Location = New Point(0, 136) I have several of these working. However, I have one form for which this statement does not work. It opens spread out over the entire parent form. Also, there is a border at the top with min, max, and close buttons even though the form has no border. This form has a picture box on it, if that means anything. why this child form does not open in the specified location?

I have the following code used to enter the name of a text file and then display it in a richtextbox. This is working but I would like it so that I could take out the initial part of the filename detailing the location of the filename to simply set it to the project folder, is there any way of doing this using the App.path function?
My code is as follows:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

I am converting several VBA projects to Windows form applications. The only problem I have is that some of the functionality of Excel is essential to the application, such as R1C1 formulas. I do not want to instantiate the Excel application or access saved worksheets. All of the data is retrieved by querying Oracle databases. 2-Dimensional arrays are not an option because the columns contain differing datatypes, and DataGridViews are too slow to work with.
I thought simply dimming a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet object would be enough, but the program kept failing and upon inspecting the object's elements in debug mode, I found that every value says this:
{"Unable to cast COM object of type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.WorksheetClass' to interface type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Worksheet'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{000208D8-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE))."}

My company is currently using a Linux/Powerterm program that exports reports via email on a daily basis. I have a add-in program installed on outlook to automatically save the report to a folder on the server. The file that is exported appears to be an XLS 97-2003 Worksheet, but I confirmed from the original programmer that this file is not a true Excel file, I believe it is a unicode file, but it can be opened by Excel. I want to link these files to an Access database within my form, but Access does not recognize this file format.I attempted to create several programs in Studio to convert the file to an XLSX file, but on each attempt I receive an error the file is an in unrecognizable format which is killing me at the moment. I even made attempts to dump the data to an dgv but it still wont be accepted.

I have an application that is being used to automatically email a form that is filled in by the user when they simply click a cmdButton. I have been asked to add a functionality that I can't figure out. The users want to be able to attach another document, using an emply cell in Excel to hold the name and path of the document, that still only requires the pressing of my cmdButton. The code that is being used to initiate the auto-email is:
Sub Mail_List_1()
Answer = MsgBox("IMPORTANT! You must be online to email! Click ""OK"" to email now if you are online. Click ""Cancel"" to email later.", _

I'm developing a new program to add rows to a spreadsheet using VB.NET on a Windows 7 64 bit computer with Office 2010 installed. I have done this many times in the past with slightly different setups with no problems. This program locks on: xlWorkBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(FullFileName)After several minutes HRESULT=0x80131c08.ErrorCode=0x0 appears
I have to idea why it locks. The XLS does exist in the folder.

I cannot find any up-to-date information on the internet on how to successfully open an excel document from a VS 2010 application.
What imports/declares are needed to open, save, close and (if you know) how to enter current values of variables into certain cells in the Excel document from a Visual Studio 2010 application?

Dim excel As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application()
Dim wb As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook = excel.Workbooks.Open(txtFileLocations.Lines(w))
Dim ws As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet = TryCast(excel.ActiveSheet, Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet)
when the program tries to opens an excel file, it always throws me an error "Office has detected a problem with this file. Editing may hard your computer" and my program crushes.......The problem appears on the SECOND line, on DIM wb...blahblah.. i went to the office and unclicked the "protected view" checkboxes.. but it still throws me those errors. my guess is that the office i have in the computer is not the same as the one that my program uses to open excel files (i mean, i loaded/imported some excel.dll files in the program so i guess that will be the one) But how do i make the program not care if the excel file is "potentially dangerous"?

I have this program that uses OLEDB connection to open the excel file, and imports it's data. Then I use mysql connection to inserts all this data. Now my question is, is it possible that I can use mysql connection in opening the excel file, or only OLEDB connection is the most possible way to open it?

If an excel document is opened inside a webbrowser control, and you try opening another excel document using a different instance of the same web-browser control, the previous opened excel (inside the web-browser) would not allow users to edit the excel workbook.
