i have developed an application using OPEN XML SDK Tool 2.0 which generates Excel file. I have Data table of 100000 row and 30 columns and i want to generate excel file with these 100000 rows and 30 columns but it takes about 2 minutes of time to generate excel file. What can i do to reduce this time.

I'm trying to time how long an operation takes in Visual Basic (VS 2008) but its not working. the code I have is as follows:
[code]...
this is in an OnClick event, so what happens is that the user can click a menu item, and it goes and sends any changes it has to a database, and pulls down any new changes to a local data cache. This operation takes time, depending on how many changes are on the server and how many are cached locally. I've thought about making this a background task, so it doesn't draw away from the main app while it's running, but before doing that, I'd like to get an idea how long the operation takes. Since I can't exactly do a progress bar, I figured using the stopwatch would tell me how many ticks/milliseconds would occur between click, and when the "total synced" message comes up, but every time i run it and do an update the message always shows 0 ticks/ms. I don't think it's accounting for the delay, just from start to finish. Is there any way to make it so it detects a message popping up and times off that?
I am using the below code to get the local Administrator members, but this code takes about 6-7 seconds to execute. More precisely the "GetObject" takes that long.Is there another way to get the same information but faster?Also, where can I find what other properties the objects holds ? (To see what other useful information I can get)[code]
View 1 RepliesWhenever I publish my app, or when I run the exe from teh debug folder it takes a couple of seconds before the splash screen shows.However, when I run it from within VB (by pressing the "play" button) the splash screen shows immediately.
What could be the cause of this?
Here's the (Timer1's interval is set to "1" in the designer, and it is set to "Enabled" in the designer as well.)
vb.net
Public timeElapsed As Int32Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
timeElapsed = 0
Timer1.Start()
[Code]...
The issue is, timeElapsed always comes back as equaling 0, so fileCopySpeed always equals infinity. Also note that test.dat is a 100MB file. There's no way it's getting copied in under 1 millisecond!
I have a client application that connects to a WCF service, i get the file size from the server as a long value then i convert it at the client to a string so it appears like ex:52.21 MB the application gets too many files sizes every time user changes the directory pathso the question is :should i convert the values to a string format from WCF service app then return it to the client as a string format or should i just return the size as a long value and let the client to convert it to a string format in other way which value take more bytes in the memory:

I am creating a WPF Application that uses Fluent library.
On my computer with Windows 7, 2GB RAM and AMD Triple Core processor, after double clicking on the program icon, The Splash image shows after about 1-2 seconds.
But on my brother's old computer with Windows XP, 512MB RAM and Intel Celeron 2.0 GHz Processor (Single core), after double clicking on the program icon, First, a process called PresentationFontCache.exe runs and it uses almost 100% of CPU for some seconds. And Total time is needed for displaying the initial Splash image is almost 30 seconds (or more).
I don't want that some users have to wait 30 seconds for displaying splash image and about 7-8 seconds for loading application. (my application load process takes 7-8 seconds)
I've been using VB for exactly a week today and for that past 4 hours I've been pulling my hair out! My problem is that our software can only run on one PC on a site, if two instances are running they cause issues. So instead of checking each PC individually I created a program with VB to do this (and other tasks) for me. The problem with the network search is that if I cannot access a remote PC (usually access is denied) then it hangs for a long time before moving on to the next. Can I introduce a timeout feature where the program tries to access the c drive but if it does this for more than 5 seconds and gets nowhere then it moves on? [code]'testcpath' is \pcnamec$ and the other two paths look for the software I'd need to remove if found. So basically, if I have access to every c drive it works fine and completes within a few minutes. If I don't have access to even a small amount then it takes an absolute age.

I have 4k records in access database. And one of the field value contains ~100 lines each so and one other field has ~25 lines. So total database size reaches ~30MB and it takes lot of time 15-20 seconds to load the database in vb.net using odbc [URL]..and updating of any other small fields also takes time due to database being large
So as an alternative I used rtf file (txt files were not preserving all the newline characters). So these file are around 5-10kb only. But for 4k records and 2 fields I have now 8k files. And copying of these 8k rtf files is taking huge time for 5MB transfer it takes an hour or so.So is there any other alternative for storage of this data. So that it will be portable and easily loaded/accessed/updated from vb.net?
I wrote an app in Visual Studio and is about 20k+ lines, but I don't know why it takes so long to start up. I have a splash screen just to test it to see if the program is working, and it is, but I have to wait for so long for the app to actually get to the start up form. A splash screen for this app isn't ideal, but was only using a splash screen for test purposes.

I am writing an application for managing mp3 files. I use AXWindowsMediaPlayer1 for playing files and UltraID3 for reading and writing ID3 tags. Every time the user selects to switch to next song, the ID3 tags of the current file need to be updated. My problem is with Media Player taking a long time to release a file for access after doing a "close". Currently I need to add a 6 seconds delay between the "Close" method of the media player and the ID3 tag "Write", otherwise I get the error saying that the file is currently in use. Anything less than 6 seconds does not work...

View 1 RepliesI have this issue that occurs with me and driving me crazy i have a report that contains thousands of records and i need to export it to excel , but the excel normal extension .xls
is showing missing records at the end of the file , so i save my file as an .xlsx extension it saves correctly but when i open the file it generates an error
"Excel cannot open the file '<var>filename</var>.xlsx' because the file format for the file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file."but when i test the file i drag it and open it in an empty notepad all the records shows up correctly
The fact is I'm making an application, which users can install by using a Setup file...once installed the data in the database can be updated by a centralized server. To do this, they can insert a DVD/CD-ROM and export the necessary data towards it. I need to do it that way, because some of the users who really need this data will be using stand alone computers.The application gets it's data from a mdb-file and the connection remains open as long a person works with the application (maybe not the best way to do, but I know :-) )...when the user uses the application, he can perform an export...this exports the .ini-file and pictures (which works fine), but he also needs to export the mdb behind the application...I already tried connection.close() before and connection.open() after the System.IO.File.Copy...but that doesn't seems to work.

I would like to open the excel file after create the excel file. The creating file function is done, but the system unable to open the excel file. My coding as below:

I have an application the contains several excel files bundled with it. I'm not opening the files and processing them within my application. These files contain a data-connection to reload all of the pivot-tables within each excel file. I have a 'link' on my form, that when clicked, it determines which file to open and calls a sub using filename and executing Process.Start(filename) for any excel file I want to open. I have no problems opening any one of the files and then exiting excel.
The problem is when I 'close' a file, but don't exit Excel; then try to open another file(clicking link on form)... it creates a new instance of Excel.
I know from experimenting that the fileopendialog form will 'reuse' an existing Excel instance, IF it does not already have a file open.
How can I do the same thing without using the fileopendialog?
I don't want the end-user to have access to the folders where these files live. That's why I have multiple 'links' on my form, one for each xls that already exists. I just want them to be able to click on a link and the xls file opens AND if they choose to merely 'close' a file and not exit... Don't create a new instance of Excel, but re-use the existing one.
I took oledbconnection with excel file, after disposing this connection i m still unable to open that excel manually,It shows some access error.

View 2 RepliesI wrote a program to download and play AVI files the files are large in size and long time wise. I have the files playing as they are being downloaded but i can't see how long the file is or seek reliably. i was reading that the AVI headers are in the last 512kb of the AVI file *why would't they put it at the start* lol so my question is is there a way to download the last 512Kb of the file i'm downloading. i have the Bytes Read and Length of the file while its downlaoding i'm just not sure where to go from there, or how to do it atleast. If i had the length in time of the Avi file i could set the trackbar to be able to seek properly. or if someone has an idea how i could get the time of the video by using fps and some math i could prob do it that way too but idk how i would tell how i can find how many kb are in the fps i'm sure it changes so think that way is't going to be reliable. how to get the last 512kb would be the best option not sure if it can be done even.
