View 3 RepliesI have ran into an issue where I need to save some Excel data to a semicolon delimited file. (Why is an issue unto itself) And I can not find a way to do this using VB. In excel I can use Import Semicolon delimited files but I can not find a way to save them. Is there a VB constant or method I can use to save semicolon delimited files without having to write my own save procedure to format the data? such as the xlCSV, xlDIF, xlTextMSDos formats. I would think that since it can import this format that it should be able to save it.

My company is making thousands of products now, every one of them have several test report in excel files. I am thinking about putting all of them into a microsoft sql database,
1. Is it wise to do so? I think a sql database is a lot easier to manage.
2. Can I save or convert the excel file as one data in a table? How could I do it? I only see a image type for data type. Surely I expect to retrieve the excel file through ASP.Net website if necessary.oh, some additional info, every excel file is not big, but it contains pictures inside sometimes.

I'm working with vb.net 2008. My application generates 1 excel file (with login details etc). The application will store user results for various sections into csv files.

I am reading in data from an excel file that is only viewed inside the program. This excel file is being populated by data from multiple PLCs (7) through DDE links via RS Linx Gateway. I would like this data to be written to two different excel files and specific sheets within those so that it can be viewed later on.
My program has a form that will allow the user to view the data live, meaning they look at the first excel file from the program so that they are not able to edit the DDE links or change the file in any way. The other excel files (there will be two, one for good parts, one for bad parts) have specific sheets for each part and each tester station. For example, if the part is a ABC part, and it is a good part, and it was tester on tester station 1 then it needs to be saved to the good parts excel file, in the ABC sheet and in the good tester station 1 sheet.
If part XYZ comes along and is a bad part (fails testing) then it needs to be saved to the bad parts file, the XYZ sheet and the bad tester station 1 sheet.I might have added more detail than is needed to solve the problem but I thought I would add it anyways to help you all understand my problem a little better.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to import data from an Excel file into SQL server. However, the Excel file's format is not recognized by SQL Server. In fact, when I open it and try to save it, I get the following message:<filename> cannot be saved in the current format. To save your changes, click OK, then save it as the latest format.When I do that manually, it puts it in a usable format. However, the automated process I'm trying to build can't save it without intervention. When the VB in my SSIS process gets to it it brings up a save window, and I have to click the "Save" button and then the "Yes" button to replace the existing file. I'd strongly prefer to have this automated. I've have tried using the SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}") code, but it brings up this message:SendKeys cannot run inside this application because the application is not handling Windows messages. Either change the application to handle messages, or use the SendKeys.SendWait method.I've tried SendWait, but it just seems to hang. I don't know how to change the application to handle error messages. I have also tried saving the Excel file as a new file with my VB code. However, as a new xls, xlsx, and csv file it still wasn't recognized by the import. I've only had success when manually saving it. In the SaveAs code I have been using, I'm only using the FileName parameter. I can't get any FileFormats to work or be recognized. Note, though, I'm opening the app and worksheet as Object variables. I can't add the Excel component in the Add Refrence area because only the .NET tab is there. I don't have a COM tab. I haven't asked if/how to get access to it, though.

I'm developing a small application that creates Excel files with user details. I'm developing this in vb.net 2008 express edition under Windows XP SP2 and with Office 2003.My target PC is running Windows Vista. I'm able to run my program without any problem and even the Excel files get created without any problem on this PC.However, the problem is when I try to open one of these created files in Vista, I get a message like below:
"The file you are trying to open, "TestMe.xls", is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?" If I click yes, it opens up properly. This is a headache as it opens up in my developing PC without any hassle. I'm sure its something to do with the Excel reference I've made in my PC (which is running Office 2003).How best can I save this file so it opens up in Excel 2007 without the above message.
Importing an excel file?first the program should be able to browse for an excel file and then,the values in an excel file will be imported to the datagrid and save all the data in the database.
