how can I let VB.Net writes an excel 2007 file? For example, the data in a TextBox will be written to the excel file every 30 seconds.The enviroment is VS2008, .Net 3.5.I've just started VB for one month, so please give me a piece of code to help me understand. I tried to find the solution on the Internet, but none of the codes worked for me, some people mentioned import "Microsoft.Office.Interop" in the code, but if do that in my code, VS said that "Namespace or type in the Imports 'Microsoft.Office.Interop' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases."
I have built an Access 2007 database with some data stored in it. I have managed to export data using VB2008 from that database to Excel 2007 and have it automatically draw charts based on this data and a query in the Visual Basic Code. One of the results looks like this:
I have a windows form and I am attempting to create an excel file from a datatable that has already been created and i'm hitting a snag - the error is: The ':' character, hexadecimal value 0x3A, cannot be included in a name."I have a button to start the Export process, here's the
'here's all my imports for the form Imports DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Packaging Imports System.Text
Basically, i have to write a small application that just writes in certain cells of a set page of an excel sheet, the sheet will always be the same layout.
I have a VB.Net App that on ButtonRun_Click open Excel to get the "tab" and "column" then another buton that past content from textboxes. I get a "COMException was Unhandled" If I reopen excel it's in use.

I am trying to read excel data (Excel 2007 SP1, on Windows XP SP3) with visual basic .net 2008 (VB 9.0 SP1). I have tried several attempts and whatever I do I am getting the following error message: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException was unhandled ErrorCode=-2147319784 Message="Altes Format oder ungültige Typbibliothek. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80028018 (TYPE_E_INVDATAREAD))" Source="Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel" Message="Altes Format oder ungültige Typbibliothek." Translated: Old format or unknown type libraryI have added the reference "Microsoft Excel 12.0 Object Library" to my project. I am assuming that I might have to add a different or an additional reference, but I do not have any clue which one to use. List of things I have already done:- Searched other forums- Altered the language settings- Tried it on an other Computer (Win XP SP3, Excel 2007, Visual Basic 2008 Express)- Ran the diagnostics tool in Excel - Updated all updates etc...- Reinstalled Visual BasicI really do not have any clue why it should not work?

How do I unregister an xla file?I one that got registered incorrectly and am having problems getting rid of it.It changes the behavior of all of my excel files, I have to use the ribbon to do insert, delete, copy, paste and when formulas are changed they do not refresh automatically. When you double click on the excel file to open I get the following windows error saying it cannot find the file but it is there. Windows cannot fine C:Users<my name>Documents<shortcut folder name><excel filename> (sk).xls. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.I used VB to display sheet events and everything appears to have the default values.
I'm developing a small application that creates Excel files with user details. I'm developing this in vb.net 2008 express edition under Windows XP SP2 and with Office 2003.My target PC is running Windows Vista. I'm able to run my program without any problem and even the Excel files get created without any problem on this PC.However, the problem is when I try to open one of these created files in Vista, I get a message like below:
"The file you are trying to open, "TestMe.xls", is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?" If I click yes, it opens up properly. This is a headache as it opens up in my developing PC without any hassle. I'm sure its something to do with the Excel reference I've made in my PC (which is running Office 2003).How best can I save this file so it opens up in Excel 2007 without the above message.
i am trying to open a excel 2007 file using a shell command in visual studio .net 2008 from a button object but it says "File Not Found" even though I created the file and put it into the same folder as the application.

I have a program that currently takes data and writes it to a MS Excel spreadsheet. (automatically opens the program, creates the cells, and fills them with data)
I would like to add an additional feature to my program that offers support for OpenOffice.org's 'Calc' spreadsheet program. (so users without MS Excel can use the application) So I am basically asking if anyone knows how to automate OpenOffice 'Calc' from VB.net. (I am using Visual Studio 2005)
I have searched on the OpenOffice forums but no one seems to know the vb.net code for this. So I was wondering if anyone here has done this, or would know how to do this.
I created a table in Excel using excel 2007's Table feature, with the numbers 1 - 5 in one column, and a number of food products in the second column, easy enough, but now i have to display that table with it's gridlines, in VB2008, how do i do this? 2nd question I created a textbox in Visual basics, how do i tell it to display the value of, lets say Cell B5 from my excel file?
I have an Excel 2007 spreadsheet with data about my golf group, e.g., each row has name, phone number, handicap, etc.I want to write a VB 2008 application to read each row, extract the appropriate column data, and then print it out. I can't find any help on how to do it.
For example, I thought I'd have to go to the references and add the Microsoft Excel 12.0 object, then import Microsoft.office.interop Once done, my thought on a simple line of code to just display the A1 box would be:
dim appExcel as New Excel.Application dim variable as string variable = appExcel.range ("a1").value message.box(variable)
Running that results in an error exception. So I'm clueless. Any hints or pointers on what to do, especially how to contruct a loop to read the contents of each column in each row, process and move to the next row.
I have an Excel file with utilizes macros to allow a user to enter names of people and then double click on cells to enter ratings via radio buttons. When I open a blank file and enable the macros, I can add users, rate their skills using the radio buttons, etc. with no issue. I then SaveAs the file and continue working on it. once I Save and CLOSE the file, then go to re-open it, the trouble begins. Keep in mind, there is no alteration to the macros directly. Just entering data and using the form as intended. Here's what happens.
I reopen the file.I enter in the name of a person on one line. I go to the first box - double click on it.It is supposed to pop up a dialog box which allows me to choose a rating via radio button (as I had been doing before I closed the file). Instead, in that first column of ratings, it instead gives me the following error:
Runtime error '1004'Unable to set the LineStyle property of the Border class
When I hit "debug" this is the code it points to:
If ActiveCell.Column = leftb Then Range(Cells(ActiveCell.Row, leftb), Cells(ActiveCell.Row, rightb + 1)).Borders(xlEdgeTop).LineStyle = xlContinuous I have no idea why this would not work when I re-open the file!
note that when I go to click on the subsequent cells (there are 8 cells in which you provide ratings, moving across the columns with each cell) - the 2nd through 8th cells function fine. The dialog box pops up, the rating can be selected. it's just the FIRST cell that gives the issue What would possibly be the cause of this? We need users of this form to be able to save, close, and re-open it if needed.
Im just learning and have made some userforms with text box's and comand butttons and i am trying to make them create a new excel workbook and save it. I have try'd all sorts of different code that i have found on the net but carn't get any to work.

Code: Dim oApp As New Excel.Application Dim oWB As Excel.Workbook = oApp.Workbooks.Add() Dim oWS As Excel.Worksheet = CType(oWB.Worksheets(1), Excel.Worksheet) COMException was unhandled

I am having a problem with using the SQL Server 2008 FileStream function with an Excel 2007 spreadsheet. I can store an Excel 2003 format spreadsheet and bring it back with no problem. When I bring the Excel 2007 format spreadsheet back from the DB I get a message that there are errors in opening the Spreadsheet and the Excel App asks if I want them repaired before it is displayed. I answer yes and the Spreadsheet is renedered perfectly. Could this be a FileStream problem or an Excel 2007 problem?

I am using VS .net 2003 and developing a program that calls Excel. The development computer only has Excel 2003, and the target machine only has Excel 2007. Would it be possible to install Excel 12 Object Library in the development computer without installing Excel 2007?
I would like have a progress bar like Outlook 2007. when you click on a link in a message. you can see a progress bar between the ribbon menu and reading pane in outlook 2007.

I am trying to use a spreadsheet with VBA macros that I wrote in Excel 2007 in Excel 2010.When the macros run in 2010, I get the error message "Can't find project or library" on functions like UCase and Date.I've set the macro settings to "Enable all macros" and selected "Trust access to the VBA project object model."What do I need to do to get these macros to run in 2010?
how I can use excel 2003 and excel 2007 on my application. I add a reference to Excel 12.0 Object but this one is not compatible with Excel 2007 and i think if i add Excel 11 Object it will not run on excel 2007.
Is there any solution that I can use so that my project can be used with either excel 2003 and 2007?
Let me explain the functions and what they do first.This function writes a key to a specified file:
Public Shared Sub WriteDatabaseKey(ByVal section As String, ByVal keyname As String, ByVal entrystring As String, ByVal filename As String, ByVal filepath As String)
The code below opens a file in Example 1 and writes on another file only the lines that satisfy the condition If times > 4 to another file. What I want to do is illustrated in example 2
[code]...
t= 2 comes from Subtracting t= 11 - t= 9 from the script in example 1. I have scripts with thousands of lines every time the program should automatically subtract the next value with the previous one and write the result into a new file starting from t= 0
