VS 2008 Importing Excel Data Into Project Database?
Jul 20, 2010
Is there a routine that will allow me to import data from an excel spreadsheet into a database within my project? I only need to do this to populate the the database I have created in my project.
While the project was being developed I used junk test data for testing and debugging but now I wan to populate the database with the actual records.
Here is the skinny:
In the project database I have the following fields:
ItemID - Primary key
SamCode
[Code].....
Column B contains the Full Name Data where B1 in a column header Column C contains the UPC Numbers needed where C1 is a column header
As stated this is a one time deal and not something I need to run as part of the application.
I am new to VB.NET. How to import data from excel spread sheet into database (SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005) by clicking a button in windows form application using VB codes (visual studio 2010).
I have a problem with importing an excel into a data grid.
Here is my code:
Try Dim _Obj As New ExcelConnection.ExcelConnection _Obj.ImportAttendence("c:Info_pc.xls", DataGrid1) Catch ex As Exception
End Try
In the excel i have numers and text and "Service Pack", "Processor Speed" and "Numar procesoare(Number of processors)" and the values for these are numers. in the data grid when i import the excel those values doesn't appear, i receive the value "null".
I have MS SQL Server Management Studio Express. I have create database with 6 tables. I want to import database in my project. When I open server explorer in VS i go to Data Connections (right click) then add new connection. Then I locate database .mdf file. After that I can see database in server explorer but only with one table (there must be six). I have try to remove/add database but tables are still missing.
I am trying to import some data from an excel spreadsheet, using VB.net.my steps are:first the user uploads the file to the server then i want to read the file from the server to then populate a gridview.[code]how can i set the OleDb connection to get the source file from the server instead?[code]i added: Server.MapPath("~/") & filepath and now it works. however, now i'm getting the error:The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'NSTS'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.
I am importing data from Excel to a datagrid in VB, I can get the data on there no problems and also save this back to a SQL database without any problems.
However I have a new spreadsheet which has the same product listed again and again with the same description but different totals, what I want to do is to upload this to the datagrid just once for each description, with a grand total of all the seperate totals
I am trying to import data from a server and put it into an excel sheet. I have included (imported) the Microsfot.Office.Interop package into my program. I have been looking through the Object Browser to find the correct commands to add this imported data. Should the ListColumns.Add and Listrows.Add functions be used in this spot? I have started a code however, it was initially going to be used with human interaction. The new direction is to make it automated. The section of code I have written follows:
#Region " (Import Data) This function will import the PI Tag Names and desired Attributes into an Excel worksheet " Private Sub Import()
[Code]...
After the nvs.Add("changer", 1) there are many more attributes that are going to be added to the excel file but I did not feel they needed to be shown here.
I have been trying for several months (in my spare time) to write a vb.net (version 2010) program that connects to Excel (version 14) and imports numerical data.This data will be used later for engineering calculations.I have tried the Interop code which I have found on the internet with limited success and now I am trying the connection string method.I have found some examples of code, on the internet,that I have pieced together and can't get it to run.Below is that code.
Imports System.Data.OleDb Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click[code].......
This is a screen image of the error I get when trying to run the program.
I need to import data from Excel worksheet into the VB.Net program. First, I need to get the data to some array or arraylist and secondly to show the data to user through datagridview or similar.So far, I have this
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim myDataset As New DataSet() Dim strConn As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source=C:TempTest.xls ;" & "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;"[code].....
How can I adjust the code to manage that? And how can I import the same range to variables (the range contains approx. 200 rows and 30 columns of data points) and I need the flexibility to add or delete items (rows) from the data in memory later.
I am trying to import some data from excel.i am using visual studio 2008 .net 3.5, on win xp sp3 the data that is being imported form excel is being edited somewhere in the import.i am sure it is somthing todo with the olddb connection.the data is coming out like this 6.05708e+008

I have a problem loading big spreadsheets into a datagridview.
I had a similar code as above that i used and it works great if you have say 10000 cells to populate cell by cell.
How ever moving to 2 mil cells is a different cup of tea, the code took more than 7 minutes to load the data, and although the data was perfect in every way, its too time consuming, i cant get it to work faster so I used the datagrid instead.
The sheets needed to be imported is 350,000 cells plus. I used code that works realy great, does the import into the grid and transfers the data to a datagridview within 15 seconds with little resources which put a smile on my dail :) then i saw something and it dropped ...
see code:
[Code].....
My problem is that whenever there are values below the heading of the cell the datagrid displays (null)
No matter what i do even converting the values in excel to text it does not display the heading of that column.
When i paste other text into the cells below the heading (NOT NUMBERS) it shows the data and heading, Only if the "type" of content is the same does it display both the heading and the text that follows in rows below.
I would like to Import data from multiple sheets in a workbook. With this following code I get the this error: "The MS Jet database engine could not find the object 'Sheet1$' Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and path name correctly."

[code] Private Sub ExellFrm_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim MyConnection As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection
I have a procedure that imports data from Excel file. Something like this: Public Sub ImportExcel(sFileName As String) Dim xlsApp As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application Dim nRow As Integer = 2 xlsApp.Workbooks.Open(sFileName) [Code] ..... If user opens excel while procedure is running, then the procedure will use the excel sheet opened by user and not the one that was using before user opened Excel ...

I am trying to import a bunch of excel 2003 files all with A:H columns and they are under the same headings etc. into a table in access 2003 database. This is a module in access im making. Im using a file search to look for every file that begins with Format (which they all do ) to get at all the files in the folder path. is there a more efficient way to do this? somehow select all files in a folder? and import each to the same table in access? The DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet seeems to take each file path individually so I'm not sure how to get each file name in the folder to import it.
I have this at the moment:
Sub Import() Dim db As Database Set db = CurrentDb
After trawling around the net for a good few days, i decided to post something here.
Basically, i've got a problem linking a data source (Access 2007 database) to a VB 2008 project.
I've broken it down to having a problem dragging a table onto my form, when it generates the nav bar, it says "0 of {0}", and the table is empty (despite the actual database containing values)
However, this happens only at home, at college it works totally fine. The only difference that's obvious is that i'm using Windows 7 at home, and Windows XP at college.
I have a large text file that I want to use in my project, that data in the text file has about six items for each location. Now I had thought of importing the text file into a database using Access, but not had a lot of luck making it work. The question is is it better to load the data in the project as a text file then search for the string required or to convert it into a database. (The text file is a list of airports and related data.) Can a text file be converted to a Microsoft compact SQL database?
