Asp.net - .tostring() Preserve Leading Zeros

Oct 18, 2010

Converting an object .tostring() removes the leading zeros. The object is not a fixed length, so I can't do object.tostring("0000000") where the number of zeros represents the fixed length.

An example object value is "0357" when I convert that object .tostring it becomes "357".

Is there a method for keeping the leading zeros where the length is not known?

Read Csv File Into Dgv And Preserve Leading Zeroes.

Oct 7, 2010

I am writing out a CSV file in a VB.NET Windows Application. It is a string, like this:99,Company,00666,TBDOn another form, the user can browse to this file and open it.When he does, I use the Microsoft Jet OleDB provider and read this file into a datagridview. It displays the four columns in the grid, but it truncates the two leading zeroes on 00666 and displays 666.I need those leading zeroes. I tried writing out the string like this:99,Company,'00666,TBD(notice the leading single quote before 00666, like you would type in an Excel cell to indicate it was text), but then when the four columns are displayed in the grid, I have the single quote and the two leading zeroes. I don't want the single quote, I just thought I could use it to indicate text.So my question is how can I write out a string of leading zeroes and have them read into the grid preserved?

Zip Code Is Dropping Leading Zero When Displayed On Excel. Export To Excel From XML To XSLT Transform?

Aug 16, 2010

I am exporting data from vb.net to excel and it is dropping the leading zero when its displayed on excel. How can I avoid the dropping of leading zero? I read the solution of adding a single quote but it makes my excel sheet column ugly. Also users will complain if they see a single quote on zip code field.vb.net code

Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", attachment)
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
Response.Charset = ""

the stored procedure outputs XML and it is transformed by XSLT before it is displayed on EXCEL

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<HTML>

[code]....

adding a single quote or manipulating excel sheet with column formatter (general/numbers ) etc. I don't want user to make any changes on excel to get the display properly when the excel is displayed from web page it should be all set with proper formatting. also we have no control over client excel software?

.net - Exporting To Excel Removes Leading Zeros. Css Styles To The Table Does Not Carry Over To The Excel Export?

Aug 4, 2011

I have an asp:table which I want to exported to excel. One of my fields are alpha numeric and when exported to excel the leading 0s are stripped off. After going through this thread: Validation (CSS 2.0): 'mso-number-format' is not a known CSS property name I would like to use the css method "mso-number-format:@;.But the css is not exported to excel. I just tried to test it with simpler css things like bold font etc but its not getting carried over. I can see that if I surround my asp:Label with tags this change gets carried over to the excel but not the css bold . Other solutions in other thread does not work for me as ="00111" shows up as desired in excel but in the web form it shows up as ="00111" which is not what i want.

Excel Does Not Preserve Datetime Format From SQL When Using QueryTables

Mar 9, 2010

I'm not sure whether this is that right place to post this, please could you advise me of where to post it if not.I have the following code in Excel 2007 VBA querying a SQL 2005 database (saves to an Excel 2003 file in the end, hence the APP):[code]This imports the required data fine, but doesn't keep the datetime formatting that is in the SQL database. If I do the same connection manually using any of the 'Data - From Other Sources' connections it keeps the datetime.I know I can format the sheet after importing the data, however there are about 50 columns on 7 sheets, all of the dates are in different places in the sheets and there are descriptive flags which I don't want to be converted to dates, so I can't just convert the whole sheet.I also am aware that if I convert the datetime to an nvarchar(10) it does keep the date in Excel, but not as datetime, just a general format.So, am I missing a simple QueryTable option that would do this for me automatically?

Open Excel File And Reusing Existing Excel Instance?

Jul 13, 2010

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.
