I have one excel sheet which has ontime event of 5 mins to run some code.This code works fine when in debugging mode. But if I lock my PC or minimize excel windows and start working something else, this code just pauses at beginning and as soon as I activate excel window, this code runs.this code involves opening and closing of one userform and i think userform is culprit.
View 2 RepliesI have a program that filters data and then outputs it to a tabg delimited file. I then use Excel Interop to open this file in Excel because directly outputting to a worksheet takes too long. So currently I am using this code:
AD.DF.WriteToFile(vbTab)
Dim WB As Workbook = ExcelApp.Workbooks.Open(AD.DF.DatafileInfo.WriteToFileLocation)
ExcelApp.Visible = True
The first line takes the filtered data and outputs to a tab delimited file. The second opens that same file in a new workbook in Excel. And obviously the third makes Excel visible. Here is my problem though: right now when this code is run there are two open workbooks. I already have an active workbook and I would just like to open this file to that workbook.
I am finally switching from VB6 to VB Net and am rewriting a technical application that calculates the heat transfer performance of automotive radiators, heater cores, evaporators, condensers, etc.The user can calculate a heat exchanger and save the results to an Excel spreadsheet. After a series of calculations he can then plot curves of performance.
He can also click on a previous calculation in Excel and import it into the VB routine. The user may have a number of workbooks open when he does this.My problem is I need to open the Excel workbook that is the active workbook. I have been able to select the active worksheet but have been forced to specify the index of the workbook. I have not been able to get the workbook I want.. The code I used is the following,
Dim oExcel As Object = GetObject(, "Excel.Application")
Dim oBook As Object = oExcel.Workbooks(1)
Dim oSheet As Object = oBook.activesheet
How do I get the active workbook instead of Workbooks(1) with an index of 1?

View 3 RepliesI have printer vendor provided SDK implementing that i can get printer DEVMODE or HDC with correct printer settings.
My questions is:
I am already using printDocument to print the image (System.Drawing.Bitmap). How can send use this HDC or DEVMOD with printDocument.
I already tried using the "PrintDocument.SetDevMode". it seems not be working.
1. Detect if my printer is busy, because my code tells the printer to print more pages that it can cope with, so I need to delay the command for 'Print the next page' until the printer has finished printing the previous one.
2. Shift the output to my printer so that it gets printed in it's entirety on the paper, instead of seemingly being anchored to some nebulous point on the A4 page. It starts printing at X = 29mm from the left edge, and Y is 28mm from the top, and stops at X = 22mm from the right edge and Y stops at 22mm from the bottom edge, leaving (aprox) 50mm of X and 50mm of Y unprinted.
3. Get useful information on Bounds, which I'm fairly certain is what I need to control where my printing should start and finish.
I've hunted through this forum, MSDN, 'Help' (a misnomer if ever there was one) the VB Library and one or two other forums, which either baffle me with reams of code or suggest code to try which either just don't work or which doesn't declare all the variables and usually don't suggest what type of variable I need, it's all very frustrating

View 3 RepliesI have a standard Visual Studio 2008 VB.Net WinForm application, running on Vista Business. One of the forms has a timer that passes Me.Handle to FlashWindowEx. This works as intended as long as none of the windows that belong to this application are the Foreground window. If this program is running and another application's window is the Foreground window, then it flashes as intended. If, however, any of this application's windows are the Foreground window, then it doesn't flash.

I need to access the current instance of MS Excel. To do that, I wrote the following code:
Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
Imports System.Diagnostics
Private _ExcelApp As Excel.Application
[Code].....
The code runs nice, but it has a problem: After the user close the Excel application (click button X - note: no other instance of Excel exists), if you open the Windows's task manager, its possible to see the process Excel.exe.
If I open and close the Excel application, there is no process Excel.exe, but if I run my code with the Excel application openned, after the user close the Excel application, the process Excel.exe isn't finished.

I want to print to a printer.There is a Printer class with many properties such as line draw, page, orientation, EndDoc etc. It does not have a print option. All documentation I have been able to find is like this
Dim printer1 as printer
set printer1 = Priinters(2)
printer1.print "This is a test line." ' This does not work, error message "Runtime error '438'" "Object doesn't support this property or method." also I get the same error message for printer1.EndDoc even though it is listed.
