View 3 RepliesPart 1 of what i want to do is on the Load Event of my form i want to look at an excel worksheet and populate a data table with the data found in the first two columns of the worksheet.
Essentially column 1 is Descriptions and column 2 is pricing
Part 2 of what i need to do is that when a user selects a description from the combo box it populates a text box with the appropriate pricing.
After doing some reading into this all i have seen is some threads on how to use Jet4.0 to link and grab the data but it is my understanding that Jet doesnt work with 64 bit OS.
Nonetheless I need to figure out a way to accomplish my end goal and make it as universal a solution as possible (ie. i do not want it to only run on 64 bit or 32 bit machines)
I am a newbie programmer using VB.net and I need to create a form with a TextBox that will populate an excel table. I created the form already but I do not know how to transfer the value of the textbox to each cell in my spreadsheet. The table is only only column and 2000 rows.
View 2 RepliesVB2005. I have several DataSets that I create or grab from an external source. One example is
Dim sql As String = "SELECT TOP 30 * FROM myTable" & vbCrLf & _
"WHERE Area='YY' AND CarNum='734EP' " & _
"ORDER BY ProcDate ASC;"
Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter(sql, myOLEDBconn)
'create a dataset and fill it with the returned data.
Dim ds As New DataSet
da.Fill(ds, "MyData")
Once I have these DataSets I then have to pump them into a specific worksheet in an existing Excel2007 workbook. The connection and interaction with Excel and the workbook/worksheet is already established and that works. But I am stuck in exporting the DataSets
into the specific worksheet.
Note that I have already scoured the web and MS Community site and all code that I have found so far iterates through each and every row and column of the DataSet and then adds that to the worksheet in a cell by cell manner. This is fine and in testing that works. But there has got to be a better way to do this. For even a moderate sized DataSet the exporting just takes a long time. 25 records with 15 columns takes about 10 to 15 seconds.
I've also been experimenting with some scratch code I found that converts the DataSet to an ADODB Recordset and then uses the xlwksht.Cells.CopyFromRecordset function to export it in one fell swoop. I haven't got this one to work just right but it seems in the end it also does an iteration through each and every record and field to convert to the ADODB recordset.

I'm trying to copy multiple excel source files into one excel file. My current code is working only for 3 source files..If more than 3 files are there, it doesn't copy the data but creates blank work sheet in the output excel file. Lets say I have a source folder with 5 excel files. Each workbook contains one worksheet with data. It copies upto 3 worksheets along with data into output excel file.
Lets say excel1 contains A as work sheet, excel2 contains B as work sheet ,excel3 contains C as work sheet ,excel4 contains D as work sheet ,excel5 contains E as work sheet .Now my output excel file should look like..OutputExcel with A, B, C, D, E along with respective data.But my current code is giving output as A,B,C worksheets along with respective data but its creating blank sheet1,sheet2 in place of D & E.

View 8 RepliesI would like to prompt the user, in the middle of a VB program, either with MsgBox or any other dialog, to input data in a worksheet of the Workbook that contains the code and then, on some event, read the data and continue execution. I was not successful with MsgBox (and other forms) since it is modal. The user cannot get focus on the worksheet, input data and then continue execution by clicking a command button.

Here is what I have so far.

I know I havent posted in awhile but you guys have done such a good helping me, my projects have been a breeze lately I have a new challenge though and I cant seem to figure out the solution. This new project Im working on sends a range of cells from an excel worksheet to the body of an email message and attaches two files.
I already have the automation down for the population of the excel file.I just need to copy Range A1:F20 from xlsheet3 to the body of a blank email with a populated subject line.Ive checked out this site already [URL].. but he seems to be accomplishing it with excel where as I (if I can) would like to do it in VB on VS .
suppose I have an excel worksheet, I want to paint the particular cells with gray color then save it as a new file.
View 3 RepliesMy application searches for a specific worksheet in an open workbook. The code to find the worksheet is:
If Amendaction = True Then
If oBook IsNot Nothing Then
For Each ws As Excel.Worksheet In oBook.Sheets
If ws.Name = SheetToFetch Then
SheetFind = ws.Name

When I execute the code, depending on the worksheet name, the result found in ws.name has one or more spaces in front of the text. e.g. "Bour001" used in creating the worksheet name becomes " Bour001" when returned by ws.name.
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.
I thought the best way would be too bring the data into a datatable object and do a foeach for every row in the datatable insert row by row into the db.

I am exporting data to the "Sheet2" of excel using late binding. when i make excel visible to true, how to make sure that the current sheet displayed is sheet2
View 1 RepliesI 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))."}
