I'm trying to copy multiple excel source files into one excel file. My current code is working only for 3 source files..If more than 3 files are there, it doesn't copy the data but creates blank work sheet in the output excel file. Lets say I have a source folder with 5 excel files. Each workbook contains one worksheet with data. It copies upto 3 worksheets along with data into output excel file.
Lets say excel1 contains A as work sheet, excel2 contains B as work sheet ,excel3 contains C as work sheet ,excel4 contains D as work sheet ,excel5 contains E as work sheet .Now my output excel file should look like..OutputExcel with A, B, C, D, E along with respective data.But my current code is giving output as A,B,C worksheets along with respective data but its creating blank sheet1,sheet2 in place of D & E.
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
Upon my program startup, I need to see if an Excel 2003 file with a certain name is open and then control it (set a reference to it). Unfortunately, the path of the Excel file is not set; else I could just detect if that file was open. So I guess I need to somehow loop through all open instances of Excel; then once I set an Excel app reference to each instance I could loop through the workbook names... But how would one go about looping through open instances of Excel in VB.net 2008?
I would like to display PDF files in a VB program. They need to display on a form that may have other elements on it. I added a reference to Adobe Acrobat 7.0 browser Control Type Library.
I was wondering if there is a library or code snippet available for .NET (or that I can translate to .NET) to display animated PNG files (on the Graphics object, or even in a custom control)?
eg you have two files customer.xml and owner.xml then you have datagridview1 on a form. can you use an open file dialog to browse and open each file on datagridview1, and be able to make changes and on the display?
I have two, soon to be many spreadsheet files. There are cell references between the files which need to be updated. I would write this in a excel macro but these spreadsheets are design tables for Solidworks, a CAD system and it does not allow macro enabled workbooks. So what I would like to do is push a button and open all of the spreadsheets, accept the update workbook prompt then save and close the files.
I've seen a similar command developed by someone using the Soildworks API but updating design tables in solidworks takes ALOT of time to run compared to just opening and closing spreadsheets.I am using Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 along with Excel 2010 Beta 2 (I like to have the new things)
I am using Datagridview and ListView Controls in my windows desktop application using vb.net.I want to Import data directly to Excell sheet and CSV file directly from form.
I need example code or even a 3rd party object that will allow me to get to an excel object embedded in a word doc. I have already tried Aspose and they do not have the capabilities yet. Has anyone done it or do you know of a 3rd party object that will?
I am not sure if this is a dumb question or not? Is there a way that we can read a .docx file and put it into a richtextbox? If so how? I have tried.LoadFile and it throws an exception saying invalid format? I tried reading the file from a stream and that also doesn't work?
I need to be able to have some way to show the contents of a folder in my application. much like windows explorer, in a sense that there are specific icons for say a video, image or music. is there a easy way to implement this in say a flow layout panel?
My application is in VB.NET and environment is Window XP. We are using WebBrowser control to display data of Word doc files i.e. we are opening word files always inside the WebBrowser control and then modifying word file using bookmarks by VB code.Our VB code is perfectly working. We are doing following changes in window registry via VB.NET code for temporary basis:1)..HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREClassesWord.Document.8updating BrowserFlags value to H800000242)..HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTWord.Document.8

Now we are migrating environment from WinXP to Win7. I have following query for Win7 environment We do not have rights to change registry on Win7 machine , so without changing values of BrowserFlags and EditFlags , how word docs files will always open inside webBrowser control? Currently I am getting below popup dialog box

I'm working out on a function in my program to let it update all the downloaded files by a button, I tried this:
[code]...
But when I try it .. It says that I cannot remove the directory because it already has files inside it.My question is, how can I remove all these files together (Without mentioning each one of them because they're about 100 files) so I can be able to delete the directory?
I am trying to get my vb.net application to look inside a folder on the web server and then let me know whether there are files in there or if the folder is empty.
i have a problem on displaying the files inside a listbox i cant see files like .wav or .mp3 or .wmv or any video or movie related files...

Private Sub Subjects_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Label4.Text = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath(Application.StartupPath & "....
Title says it all. How can you obtain a list of files (as a stringcollection or some other storage method) which contains the full path on the user's computer to the files?
