Read An Excel File - Loop Through Cells To Get Values?
Jul 25, 2008
I'm using VB.Net's Excel component to read Excel file, but the performance is totally slow, since it has to loop through cells to get values. Reading a file containing one sheet with 1162 rows and 105 columns (which is small size compared to my general requirement) already costs more than 5 minutes.1. I want to ask if any of you have suggestion on reading such an Excel file with better performance, except OleDB, cuz most compies here have vesion problem?2. Is it normal that it tooks a long time for Excel component to read Excel file, or is it that I implement the code in a wrong way?

I am new to VB.NET and I am trying to read a line of data from a .csv file. For some reason the line of code below is returning "System.__ComObject", why? I verified that the cell contains "4/8/2011 9:20".

I am trying to read data with a test routine from a fairly simple 3rd party Excel file. The file has three sheets and was created by Open Office 3.x as an 'Excel 97/2000/XP .xls' file. The later, still to be programmed, application must later run on machines with Windows XP Professional using the 2.0 .net framework and no Office package installed. The content of the file does not need to be modified by the later application. For some reason, numeric values are not read correctly. They "convert" to DBNull. I've searched around a bit but not found a 'simple' solution for solving this problem. Adding 'IMEX=1' or 'HDR=Yes;IMEX=1' to the connection string results in an error 'Installierbares ISAM nicht gefunden' (installable ISAM not found).
Based on various examples I've found, I've written the following test code:
Option Strict On
Option Explicit On
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

I want the people using my program to choose their own cell to read. I will have 2 textboxes (txtRow and txtColumn). They will have to click "read" to read from excel (but I will not open MS excel) and the answer will show in a message box. This is what I have done..
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCheck.Click
Dim conn As New OleDbConnection("Data Source= D:LeeABC.xls ;Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0; Extended Properties=Excel 12.0;")
Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter("Select * from [Sheet1$]", conn)
Dim dt As New DataTable
Dim Row1 As Single
Dim Column1 As Single
txtRow.Text = Row1
txtColumn.Text = Column1
da.Fill(dt)
MsgBox(mycell)
End Sub

I'm trying to write an import function for getting data out of an excel file. How I currently do it is as follows:
Private Sub ReadExcel(ByVal childform As PhoneDiag.frmData, ByVal FileName As String)
Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
Dim xlWorkBook As Excel.Workbook[code]....
From what I can gather, it more than likely comes down to this line:
Dim Obj = CType(therange.Cells(rCnt, cCnt), Excel.Range)
All I need is the text from the cells, not to create an object for each cell (and then not send them to garbage collection).Is there an easier way of just getting the text? Ideally, if I can get a method for getting the text values of the cell, I'd like to get the multiple rowArray()'s added to a master array and update the program's values later.
EDIT:I also realize that I have two options if I were to create a master array, say mArr, to hold all the data.Would it be better performance-wise to have mArr to be large and the sub arrays small, or mArr to be small and the sub arrays to hold more of the information?I ask because the files that will be imported will have more rows than columns, so I was wondering if there was any "set" way of doing it.

My main goal is to have an excel spreadsheet that automatically plots the overall success of my stock portfolio over time (% change over time). I've been able to incorporate stock data into my spreadsheet by linking it to the web, but the trouble is the spreadsheet will keep no history of what the previous stock values were, so I can't graph how things change over time. This sounds like it might be too complicated to be built in to excel, so I was wondering if anyone knew how to program this in Visual Basic. Maybe something like this.... If refresh then new cell plus new time stamp. Another possibility would be to have a whole bunch of cells that refresh only once but at longer and longer intervals, e.g.,

I am writing a VB.NET program and I'm trying to accomplish the following:
Read and loop through a text file line by line
Show the event of the loop on a textbox or label until a button is pressed
The loop will then stop on any number that happened to be at the loop event and when a button is pressed again the loop will continue.
Code
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
'Dim nFileNum As Integer = FreeFile() ' Get a free file number
Dim strFileName As String = "C:scb.txt"
[Code] .....
I'm able to read the text file but my label will only loop if I hit the start button. It goes to the next line, but I want it to continue to loop through the entire file until I hit a button telling it to stop.
