View 9 RepliesI'm a beginner in VB.NET and I use VB 2008 express edition. I was searching in Google for a tutorial on how to import data from an excell sheet into VB but i couldn't find anything and therefore I decided to ask for help here. Firtly, let me explain you my "problem". Let's say we have an excell sheet with a number in the A2 cell and another number in the B3 cell. I want to make a program in VB that makes calculations with the values in the A2 and B3 cell of the sheet. This is just an example though. Of course I want to do more copmlicate things than doing calculations between those 2 numbers..

View 1 RepliesI'm have a program (GUI) that interfaces with excel to execute macros. We're using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel to call/run the macros and this works great.What I can't figure out is a good way to cancel the macros from the GUI.One idea we had was to use the excel.application variable that runs the macros to write a "stop" value to a specific cell in the workbook, and in the macros (they are all mostly loops), check for the "stop" value in that cell. This crashes my GUI with this The program '[2188] BVLReports.vshost.exe: Managed' has exited with code -336589910 (0xebf00baa).And excel gets tied up, and won't respond. I know how to Exit Sub from within the macro if the "stop" value exists, so I don't need answers on how to check/cancel from inside the macro. Any ideas on a better way to write this "stop" value or a better way to cancel the macros externally?

I have to provide an Excel file as an output. I have to color some of lines and make them bold.The input is based on a dynamic list (in memory) and it also could be based on CSV file that I'm already provide today (based on the same dynamic list).I'm wondering what would be the most efficient way (in terms of performance) in order to provide the colored Excel output?Should I export directly from dynamic list into Excel - or - Should I export from CSV into Excel ?

View 2 RepliesSo I've got this Excel sheet of employees which have all the information about them. I'm trying to import this info into AD, but in order to do that I need to get the username for these users as well. And I would like vba code or vb.net code that basically takes the value of every row in column D and looks for it in AD and returns the username and adds it to column A. Would something like this be possible?

View 2 RepliesI wrote a UDF to enable users to run Macro`s in excel here is the function below
Private Sub RunExcelMacros(ByVal Path As String, ByVal MacroName As String)
Dim oExcel As Excel.Application
Dim oBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim oBooks As Excel.Workbooks
[code].....
And to use it just call the udf with the 2 parameters like below
RunExcelMacros("c:MyExcelBook.xls", "TheNetMacro")
just remember that you have to have an excel sheet with a macro named TheNetMacro or any other name you want to give it.
I'm trying to copy a Range from Excel and Paste the information in powerpoint in either the HTML or the default format, however, I am having some difficulties. I am able to get the code to work for pasting the Range as an OLE Object but nothing else. The problem with doing this is that having the embedded excel documents in the powerpoint makes the file extremely large and unstable. I just need to be able to paste the information without the embedded information where it is editable (so, not as a bitmap or picture).
With ppt2Slide
Sheets(index2).Activate
Range("CP12:CT" & RangeIndex2).Copy
[code]....
I can do this using VBA, but I want to be able to create the code using a compiled VB programme, which can then be opened in Excel.

View 5 RepliesI'm creating a macro in excel using vb?What the macro is doing is checking if the row and column headers are same, and if it is then I want it to save the row header (the date in this case) AND the value (a number) into an array, and this is done in a for loop and goes on.... I dont know if I should use 2-D array or a 1-D array that stores 2 values....Not sure at all !Then after the outer most FOR LOOP is done, I want to print those values stored in the array.
Here is what I have so far, this works actually however i'm using 2 seperate arrays, one to store the row header (the date) and another array to store the value. But really I want to make it simpler, shorter and use only one array that stores both of these values as we go through the for loop and at the end of the for loop, all the values from beginning which are stored can be printed out.
Here is my code :
Sub Test ()
Dim sys_arr() As String ' declaring the array to store the values
Dim sys_date_arr() As String 'declaring the array to store the dates
[code]....
This totally works but with 2 different arrays, all I want is just 1 single array (not sure if it is 2-dimensions or still stays as 1 dimension but with 2 different variables)... and then the array can store the date and variable correspondant to the date, and goes to the next row, and do same thing... So the output results should be like for eg :
2/12/2010 37
2/13/2010 41
2/14/2010 66
and so forth
I am trying the whole day to make an excel-macro run through VB2008. The macro in excel calls another file and extracts two values in order to draw a graph. The VB code should run the excel macro everytime and import the graph. However, I have a problem with this line : oExcel.Run("Macro1")

I have this code that works. it goes down a range and deletes the empty rows, seperates the first character into a different column if its not a number or negative sign.This code WORKS. but it is too SLOW for the amount of data i need it to deal with. I have already turned off automatic calculations. screen updating.and visibility of application.

I have a macro that save a file under a different name every day with the date as part of the name
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"C:myfile" & Year(Date) & Month(Date) & Dat(Date) & ".xls" _
, FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
I would like to format the date as YYYYMMDD
I'm guessing the reason this macro isn't doing what I want it to is because of an error on my part in the code. Basically, I want the values in the cells pointed out in the code to be increased by 10% each time the button is pushed.
Here is the code:
Sub Add10percent()
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 2, 0.1
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 4, 0.1
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 6, 0.1
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 8, 0.1
