I've got lots of XLSX files and I need to append a new row after the last one in the file. I'm using OpenXML and so far I know how to open/create spreadsheet, but my search for adding new rows to existing files returned nothing.
I am using Microsoft OpenXml SDK 2.0 to create Office 2007, 2010 files, specifically a very simple excel file. It has a simple header which is merged with 6 cells to center. Bold font size 16. There are 6 columns and each has a header. Bold font size 14. There are rows of data related to each 6 columns. I am looking for decent examples of OpenXml SDK 2.0 to get started.
I have a working code that creates an excel but it uses Interop.Now, I have to use OpenXML. How can I create the excel file and the save the data in the cells?
I am using VB.net 2008 express edition. I have figured out how to use some of the code snippets for the open xml sdk to create a drop down list of all the sheets in an excel file. I can also use the code snippet to get the value of an individual column header. What I want is a drop down list of all column headers. I could create an array containing the alphabet and loop through each column based on the alphabet letter in the array. I would then just exit the loop on the first column with no value returned for column header...but there must be an easy way to return all headers in one query of the xml.
I'm trying to read data from the .xlsx files using SharpZipLib to unpack it (in memory) and reading the inner xml files. Everything is fine but recognizing the dates - they're stored in julean format and I need to somehow recognize if a number is a date or only a number. In another topic (unfortunately it died and I need quick answer) I got to know some things from Mark Baker, but it's still not enough...
"Excel stores dates as a float value... the integer part being the number of days since 1/1/1900 (or 1/1/1904 depending on which calendar is being used), the fractional part being the proportion of a day (ie the time part)... made slightly more awkward by the fact that 1900 is considered a leap year.
The only thing that differentiates a data from a number is the number format mask. If you can read the format mask, you can use that to identify the value as a date rather than a number... then calculate the date value/formatting from the base date." "But doesn't the attribute "s" for dates has always the value of "1"? I know it defines style?
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'm trying to figure out what would be the easier method for what I'm trying to accomplish. What I have is in, on the main form, a datagridview that is bound to an xls file. I then have another form that the user can import/paste data to another dgv. This content then needs to be appended to the end of the main form's dgv. Would it be easier to add it straight to the dgv and then save it to the excel file or save it to the excel file and reload the dgv? Or does it matter? I'm not exactly sure how to do either method but I figured I would start here.
the following is a working button to load excel data into a listbox. When I first wrote it I just used a loop to pull items 1-10 to do testing. Then sufficiently forgot about it and remembered just now. So in short here's the button:

I'm fairly new to coding in Visual Basic, and I'm working on a project where I have to allow users to write data to an existing Excel worksheet (by entering the data into a form created in Visual Basic.NET). I've created a form that allows users to enter data such as the following:
I'm working on a project where I have to allow users to write data to an existing Excel worksheet (by entering the data into a form created in Visual Basic.NET). I've created a form that allows users to enter data such as the following:
Name (First, Last) Mailing Address Email Address Gender Age
...and so on. I've programmed the data to be sent to the Excel file upon clicking on the Submit button in the form itself. I've also created the Excel file and placed it on my C: drive, but the problem I'm having is trying to send the data from the VB form to the Excel file itself. Can someone please show me some sample code or point me in the right direction as to how to get the submitted information from the form to save into the Excel file, please?
I'm trying to get the information to show up in rows and columns in Excel like the following below (the dashes are just to show that the information should be in rows and columns):
Name--------------------------Mailing Address-------Email Address-------Gender-------Age John Doe---------------------2300 Jackson Street-------- xxx@xxxx.com-------Male---------17
I need to save the results of each search that I run on my database, into an excel file. So it is an iterative process where the new search results are added on as new rows to the excel file in each export. I am running the following code which works perfectly fine but for the fact that each export is saved to a newly created excel file.[code]...
I've successfully implemented OpenXML that takes the bookmarks within a document and replaces them. Unfortunately it only works with .docx and from what I understand .doc is not compatible with the OpenXML format. So, what I'm wondering is if I can take that WordprocessingDocument and convert it to a .doc when users try and download it.
I have a workbook (Workbook1) that runs through some steps using visual basic, which ends up opening another workbook Workbook2). Once Workbook 2 is opened, I need to copy a section of data from it, into Workbook1 int a specific worksheet. I was able to do this by recording a macro, but the challange is, the name of Workbook 1, and Workbook 2, will vary by User. When I created the macro it uses the files as they are currently named. The section of code is below.
Forgive me for being a twit! I am thought I was combining csv file with excel file in different worksheets. I have used the copy and paste functions to combine my csv file with excel file. But..the csv file seems to copy over the login data I have stored in Sheet 1. Can anyone spot why? I thought I'd finished....just a few more tweaks away.
I am currently building a vb windows form application (.net 3.5 framework). For the next part of the application I want to be able to use an existing excel process which will have been checked out from sharepoint and manipulate the worksheet with my app.
I am writing a windows application that interacts with data stored in an Excel Spreadsheet. I merely want to change the text value of a cell that already has text written in it.
VB2005. I have several DataSets that I create or grab from an external source. One example is Dim sql As String = "SELECT TOP 30 * FROM myTable" & vbCrLf & _ "WHERE Area='YY' AND CarNum='734EP' " & _ "ORDER BY ProcDate ASC;" Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter(sql, myOLEDBconn) 'create a dataset and fill it with the returned data. Dim ds As New DataSet da.Fill(ds, "MyData")
Once I have these DataSets I then have to pump them into a specific worksheet in an existing Excel2007 workbook. The connection and interaction with Excel and the workbook/worksheet is already established and that works. But I am stuck in exporting the DataSets into the specific worksheet.
Note that I have already scoured the web and MS Community site and all code that I have found so far iterates through each and every row and column of the DataSet and then adds that to the worksheet in a cell by cell manner. This is fine and in testing that works. But there has got to be a better way to do this. For even a moderate sized DataSet the exporting just takes a long time. 25 records with 15 columns takes about 10 to 15 seconds.
I've also been experimenting with some scratch code I found that converts the DataSet to an ADODB Recordset and then uses the xlwksht.Cells.CopyFromRecordset function to export it in one fell swoop. I haven't got this one to work just right but it seems in the end it also does an iteration through each and every record and field to convert to the ADODB recordset.
I have successfully created a new excel with the code
[xlApp = New Excel.ApplicationClass]
and can transfer and manipulate data from my VB2008 form back and forth with the spreadsheet One time only each time I try and add additional data it wants to open a new workbook with the same name but cant seem to get it to just add the additional info.
