I have AutoFilter in place in my sheet. I want to sort data using the AutoFilter itself and not by normal sort. I want the client to see the down arrow on the autofilter button, which tells that rows are sorted on this key.
I have 'sheet' as an object :
sheet.Range("A2").AutoFilter then Or something else ??(Ensure the syntax for VB.Net and not VB Script)
In Excel 2010 (but also in older versions you can find a nice functionality - auto filter. When you just put some data in a row and press CTRL+SHIFT+L you activate Auto Filter. Now you press the down arrow and you get what I need... A new window appears. This window include buttons ordered in something like a context menu a textbox and a checkedlistbox. The windows definitely is not a classic form, because when you operate with the controls on it, the original excel windows is still the active window. The window can also be drawn outside of the main excel windows.
View 5 RepliesThis seems like is should be simple but for the life of me I can't seem to get it. I am using VB.net.I am importing a text file into Excel. Then I want to select everything and sort it based on a cell (A) in this case. So here is what I have so far.
Code:
xlApp.Workbooks.OpenText(sDump, , 1, , XlTextQualifier.xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote, , , , True)

this code was not done by me originally and there are some thigns here i dont quite understand i have altered it a bit from my coworkers code to suit my data and it works. but too slow. and when i have 4000+kb excel files it might freeze altogether. ( I have checked tho that when and after this transposer runs it will still be within the excel row limit, i had done calculations before and made a macro to automatically split excel files based on number of columns and rows to make sure this is so ). This code seems to start out fast then goes slower the longer it runs. at least this is what it seems liek to me.

View 1 RepliesI've got a DataGridView that has a DataTable as it's Datasource. Whenever I sort a column and then edit a cell, after editing the column, the column autosorts so the recently edited cell is no longer in the viewable area.

View 2 RepliesI am reading an Excel file into VB.NET. There are 4 columns containing dollar figures of varying amounts. Here is what I need to do is identify the columns with the highest $ figure, the next highest, etc. and mark them so that .NET can identify them (e.g. col3 is highest so rank1 variable is "col3" and so on).So I am dealing with Excel Ojects which is new to me and sorting which is new to me. If it helps, here is how I am reading in the Excel file:
xlsWorkBook = xlsApp.Workbooks.Open(folders(f).ToString & "" & fileInFolder.ToString)
xlsWorkSheet = xlsWorkBook.Worksheets("Sheet1")

I am using VB.Net 2008 on Windows XP, and I am trying to sort a Worksheet in Excel. My code is as follows:

I have a range in excel and I want to be able to sort it by one column programmatically.
There is range.sort, but it has a ridiculous about of parameters and I cannot get it to work.
Surely there must be something to be able say I want this data to be sorted by this column?
With this code I import Excel to a datagridview , works fine. But how do I filter a Column lets say "Number" ? with a textbox

is there something wrong with this one?
SaveFileDialog1.Filter = " Excel Workbook (*.xlsx) | *.xlsx |(*.*) | *.*"
cause i can't filter all the excel workbooks and no files come out, but when i use this..
SaveFileDialog2.Filter = "Text (*.txt) |*.txt|(*.*) |*.*"
all the text files are being filtered..
I am using VB.net.I am importing a text file into Excel. Then I want to select everything and sort it based on a cell (A) in this case. So here is what I have so far.
Code:
xlApp.Workbooks.OpenText(sDump, , 1, , XlTextQualifier.xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote, , , , True)
xlSheetData = xlApp.ActiveSheet
rng = xlSheetData.UsedRange
rng.Sort(rng.Range("A2"), XlSortOrder.xlAscending)
It works but the problem is the direction that the sort is happening. Everything is being sorted horizontally. I want to Sort it by the selected Column.
I fought through a good amount of this and have gotten to the point where I can sort my arrays. What I need to do now is take the following code and sort the elements in descending order instead of ascending order. I don't know how to do that with the two arguments in the code:
Dim Cols(3) As Int16
Cols(0) = ColumnNumber + 1
Cols(1) = ColumnNumber + 2
Cols(2) = ColumnNumber + 3

i'm looking for a solution in automating the following which we are currently doing manually each day:We are getting mails overnight from different clients with different subjects. lets call the subjects 'succes' and 'failed' for now.All we do is ad a new column ech day in an excel sheet, and set cells to green (succes) and red (failed). Each client has a row.I want to automate this process by VBA, as I think it's the best solution.The VBA should read the mail in a folder, and look at the subject and from address.

I am trying to auto fit columns in excel using
Dim objxlrange As Excel.Range
objxlrange.Columns.AutoFit()
I am currently getting this error "object reference not set to an instance of an object" Using the keyword NEW does not work to fix this problem. Is there another way to AutoFit Cells in excel? I will continue to look for the answer and I will post it here if I find it.
Via VB.Net, is there any way to access the AutoSum feature that Excel has? I have a spreadsheet that I create and populate via a datatable using my application. I know how to sum based upon a predefined range (e.g., .cells(cnt + 1, 21).Formula = "=Sum(U3:U" & cnt & ")") but is there any way that I can just call a cell in my worksheet and have it AutoSum as if I was clicking the AutoSum button in Excel for that row? This would save me a lot of coding time based upon the logic my spreadsheet is going to need.
View 1 RepliesWhat I basically need is a Auto Sum script in Visual Basic for Excel.(Dynamically)
Instead, of having to manually insert the auto sum formula() every time I insert a new number in a new column. I want the script to automatically recognize the numbers, and either subtract, add, multiply, or divide. To get the number to get the value of the column.
I tried something like this -
MyTotal = Application.Sum(Range("A1:A100"))
' returns the total of the values in A1:A100 in the active worksheet.

I have an application that receives data input from an automated set of devices. This data stream I have managed to capture & get it into a list box which I can sort based on the Device ID & the time that the response was received.There is a set time window for the devices to transmit their data into the application and during this each device is not limited to the number of responses it can send (ie :- Device 1 can send in 2 responses where Device 3 can send in 40 responses, etc).All of the responses are captured, listed & sorted within the listbox (this bit is working ).I now need to extract the last (ie:- latest) entry in the listbox for each Device ID & this is where I am stuck. I can retrieve the last item in the list but cant seem to extract the last item for each Device ID.[code]

View 1 RepliesI'm using VB.net 2005 to input data from a database application into Excel files.I un-protect the sheets, input data into specific cells using named ranges, then re-protect the sheets.
This has worked fine so far, up until I ran into a file that is protected with auto-filtering enabled. When I re-protect the sheets, I can't seem to protect it while allowing the use of autofilter dropdowns. The dropdown arrows for the autofilter are greyed out and disabled.
Using the following code to re-protect the sheets after inputting the data.

works fine. The sheet is protected and I can use the autofilter drop downs. But when I use that same code in my VB.net project, the drop downs are not enabled.
So, I am already able to successfully import an excel file to sql server through my vb application BUT I want to automatically change a value in a certain column to another. To expand on this, my excel file has a column that lists test titles such as "WCOB 1120 Access Test". I want to have each specific test title changed to a number. So, "WCOB 1120 Access Test" would need to be changed to '1' before it is added into my database.
