Searching For Multiple Values Using VBA In Excel?
May 4, 2012
I do not know if it is possible to implement this problem in VBA or it must be done with VB. Net using Visual Studio.
Problem: Excel has its search function and it is a pain if there many value available or you must find a value that far away from column A.
I would like to have something like this
In which I can specify what columns I want to display by their header name. Rearrange the column in the way I would like to, and ability to copy and paste. Like datagrid in Visual basic?

I'm developing an application to help law enforcement retrieve and analyze logs and other files left by the use of Pidgin (a multi-protocol messenger client). Right now I'm nearly done, but I want to add the ability to search chat logs for user-defined words or phrases and I don't even know where to begin.
Chat logs are stored as html documents in a folder/sub-folder/sub-folder/sub-folder fashion, where each sub-folder can have dozens of sub-folders inside of it, and the final sub-folder can have dozens if not hundreds of chat logs. If anybody could point me in the right direction, I'd be very grateful.
(Also, this is the first program I've written since about 2005, and I'm essentially teaching myself VB as I go. If you'd like to see what I've cobbled together so far, you can find the program here.)

i am working on a VB project for Chem and im making it for converting grams to moles, moles to molecules or any thing like that. and i have about 110 elements set up and working fine the way that im doing it but i have a feeling this is a horrible way and to abundant.
i have a textbox set up to if i type in the element He and hit enter it will find ChemElement(1)="He" and it calls "Sub DisplayElement(ByVal number As Decimal, ByRef label2 As Label)"
Which then displays the Chemical mass into a Label.

When I click on button1, employee_id and P values need to be transferred from button1_click to Cal_Category13() and go through all the calculation. After the calculation, udtnew.X and udtnew.MTD values need to be transferred back to button1_Click
I've no problem to return multiple values Cal_Category13().MTD and Cal_Category13().X from Cal_Category13() to button1_Click but i've no idea how to transfer employee_id and p values from button1_click to Cal_Category13().

I have a program which grabs the source code of a webpage and puts it into a string. I would now like to search the string for two values.
"video_id": "value 1 here"
"t": "value 2 here"
The problem, is that I don't know the position of the values, and I the values change depending on each webpage. All I know, is the text before the value, e.g. "video_id" and "t:"
Here is my code:
Dim videoid As String = TextBox1.Text.Trim
Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClient()
Dim result As String = wc.DownloadString(videoid)

I am using VB.net 2003 application program. I am trying to do a select statement whereby I'm searching between 2 datetime values that are being stored as datetime. records are stored inside Access. For example, I am searching between 2 datetime:
StartTime = 2/23/2009 9:00:00 AM
EndTime = 2/23/2009 11:30:00 AM
So I need to find all the records in between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM on 2/23/2009.
strSQL = "select OrderID from Orders Where OrderDate >= ('" & StartTime & "') AND OrderDate <= ('" & EndTime & "') "
but i got the error showing below:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Data.OleDb.OleDBException' occurred in system.data.dll
strSQL = "select OrderID from Orders Where OrderDate >= DATEVALUE('" & StartTime & "') AND OrderDate <= DATEVALUE('" & EndTime & "') "
But when I use DATEVALUE, it takes the date from the string and set time as midnight (00:00:00). So it returns no records between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM on 2/23/2009, but I can see there are records. [Code]
strSQL = "select OrderID from Orders Where OrderDate >= TimeValue('" & StartTime & "') AND OrderDate <= TimeValue('" & EndTime & "') "
And when I use TimeValue, it returns the time from the string and set date as jan 1st. so it returns no records between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM on 2/23/2009, but I can see there are records. [Code]
but none of the codes above is returning records between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM on 2/23/2009, but I can see there are records. i searched and found all those examples. but that didn't work. Is there anyway i can search between 2 datetime values. i need to find all the records that lies between that time period (for example: between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM on 2/23/2009).

Though I know your site ask for some effort on my part im not exactly sure where to start.. I know how to code some decent things and such but recently I wanted to make a serial code system.. What Im looking for is to have a list of Serials on my website (possibly through MySQL? Or something simpler Not sure on this either) I know about the obvious
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If TextBox1.Text = "BLAH123" Then
MsgBox("Valid Registration key. Thank you")
[CODE]...
But I do not like this system as I have no control over multiple uses. I want to pull the keys from my website (hell through a notepad if its easier) therefore allowing me to delete and add serial keys as needed..

I have to scan through documents. Excell, Word, txt, ect looking for company names that match a pre-difined list of companies.I then email the companies some specifics in regards to that doc.The problem I have been having recently is that the list of companies keeps growing and I am starting to miss some more than I used to.What I would like to build is a tiny app that has 2 Text boxes.1 on the left for input (where I would copy/paste) the document text I receive.and one on the right for the output where it will highlight any line that contains the name of any of the pre-defined companies.
I started toying with the idea and so far I have form with a SplitContainer. Within that SplitContainer each side has a TextBox... Below the Textbox on the left hand side splitcontainer I have a submit button with no actions currently assigned to it.

I'm in the process of moving from ADO.NET to Linq. The application is a directory search program to look people up. The users are allowed to type the search criteria into a single textbox. They can separate each term with a space, or wrap a phrase in quotes such as "park place" to indicate that it is one term.
Behind the scenes the data comes from a XML file that has about 90,000 records in it and is about 65 megs. I load the data into a DataTable and then use the .Select method with a SQL query to perform the searches. The query I pass is built from the search terms the user passed. I split the string from the textbox into an array using a regular expression that will split everything into a separate element that has a space in it. However if there are quotes around a phrase, that becomes it's own element in the array. I then end up with a single dimension array with x number of elements, which I iterate over to build a long query.
I then build the search expression below:
query = query & _
"((userid LIKE '" & tempstr & "%') OR " & _
"(nickname LIKE '" & tempstr & "%') OR " & _

I have a excel report with one sheet called "Export Report". I then add 4 more sheets and rename them accordingly.
I then need to search in "Export Report" in column A, but unknown row for the word 'Definitions' and then once found I have to copy 'Definitions' and 10 rows belows it, to the sheet called "Definitions"
How can I achieve this? At the moment I am stuck at the point of finding the word 'Definitions'. I get error Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A9C64 at this line:
LastRow = xlApp.Workbooks(1).Worksheets("Export Report").Cells(xlApp.Workbooks(1).Worksheets("Export Report").rows.count, "A").end(Excel.XlDirection.xlUp).row + 1

I have simple columns and their respective sums. However, I exclude 1 particular value from each sum, like so [code]...
Now I need to exclude another value ("Awaiting Progression") from a second column called "PROGRESSION".
Since I already exclude value based on 1 column called CATEGORY, how do I change my =Sum(Code.ExcludeOthers(Fields!CATEGORY.Value,Fields!ACTION_PLAN_NEW.Value)) to exclude a value from the PROGRESSION column if it's = ("Awaiting Progression") ?
i.e. How do I exclude multiple values, depending on values in 2 columns in SSRS 2005?

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.

If a use the NPV() function in Excel (2010) with a discount rate of 5% and 10 cells that each contain 505,000 the resulting NPV function call "=NPV(5%,C2:C11)" returns the value of 3,899,496.
If I use the Financial.NPV() method in the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace (in my C# application) and pass in a discount rate of 5% (as a double) and an array of 10 doubles with a value of 505,000 each, the VB function returns the much lower value of 100,999.99 (plus a few more decimals).

I am using visual studio 2010/vb trying to display data that is based on a value read from a text file.Currently i can get it to read a text file with only 1 value and get this value into a label. Then by using a SqlDataSource and setting a parameter in the WHERE clause to use the value from the label, it will display the related data in a data GridView.
BUT i would like to be able to read multiple values seperated by a , or next row down in the text file and enter these values into a WHERE bookID in (value1,value2,...)
