I have a spreadsheet with Proj Numbers: "049410-001" in column B6:B60. I have the URL to the Database: I want the links to show up in the A column with the Tag being the Proj Number "049410-001".
Also, if I could clear the A column and use it "A column" to enter the Proj Numbers and then run the Macro to enable the Hyperlinks I could eleminate the Proj number taking up 2 columns. I have 80 rows set aside for projects so it needs to go through and enable the links that have text in them.
i used =HYPERLINK(E24,B105) (E24 was another wasted cell that combined the static first part of the link, and the proj) as the formula way to do it, but I'm trying to make a Macro that does it behind the scene. but I am just getting into VBA, and I have no idea what i'm looking at when I look at a code.

Is there any way to insert an existing macro into a existing excel file without using the excel library ? I need this to set the excel to print whole work book .I cannot use excel library because it will be done online in the server where installation of excel is not possible. I can however use the c#.net coding . I am using NPOI to generate the excel.
the macro is given below
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
If printed = False Then
Cancel = True

I use the following code snippet
Dim exlapp As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application
Dim xlWorkBook_new As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook
Dim strOriginal As String
strOriginal = Server.MapPath(Request.ApplicationPath & "/Attachments/") & "abc.xls"
xlWorkBook_new = exlapp.Workbooks.Open(strOriginal)
The code hangs in the last line. It works fine in the development environment. i deployed in windows server 2000 ,where I get this issue. the browser goes half way and throws the below exception after some time

I have set the identity impersonate to true in web config. This should be mostly an access rights issue.I have even provided access rights for the "everyone " user in the excel file and as well for the interop component. Please post ur valuable comments.

I need to:
1) Read a CSV file,
2) Put the data in a list object that I can sort,
3) and populate a few GridView controls on a form,
4) Write my sorted list to an excel file, which I've never done.
I'd like to create a formatted summary table that would look organized when opened in Excel. Who is best person/ or place to ask about that?

I'm have a program (GUI) that interfaces with excel to execute macros. We're using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel to call/run the macros and this works great.What I can't figure out is a good way to cancel the macros from the GUI.One idea we had was to use the excel.application variable that runs the macros to write a "stop" value to a specific cell in the workbook, and in the macros (they are all mostly loops), check for the "stop" value in that cell. This crashes my GUI with this The program '[2188] BVLReports.vshost.exe: Managed' has exited with code -336589910 (0xebf00baa).And excel gets tied up, and won't respond. I know how to Exit Sub from within the macro if the "stop" value exists, so I don't need answers on how to check/cancel from inside the macro. Any ideas on a better way to write this "stop" value or a better way to cancel the macros externally?

I'm exporting my Dataset to an excel file, and I want to make sure I keep any file errors under control. One in particular that I'm concerned about is accessing a file that's already open. A general IOException occurs that says:
"The process cannot access the file 'C:Reports eport300.csv' because it is being used by another process."
Here is the line in which the error will occur:
Dim output As New IO.StreamWriter(path, False, UnicodeEncoding.Default)
I guess I could just throw a try catch around it, but what if an IOException happens that isnt related to this particular incident? Is there a way I can check to see if the file is already open before allowing this code to run? Especially when I'm using excel.

My program opens 4 excel spreadsheets updating info. I update one at a time and then close it before opening the next one.I want to add code to my program to test if the file is already open, before trying to open it. Occasionally someone will have one of the files opened and it causes a crash. If I test to ensure it is not open, then I can avoid this.

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.

I want my program to be able to create a '.txt' file when it is run for the first time, with the date and time the program was accessed, and to be able to add new 'logs' of program history every time it is accessed. What i mean is that i want my program to be able to create a '.txt' file, and then fill in the dates and times when the program is opened.

I'm working through an example in a programming book and stumbling across a problem that I can't seem to figure out. The program in question is basically a very basic 'level viewer' for a tile based bitmap game (its a game creation book). The source code from the author was written for Visual Studio 2005, and I am using 2010. The source code imports fine and the program runs correctly.
I built the same program on my own, starting from scratch in VS2010. The program works like this: It opens a tile set palette (bitmap form), then uses an XML file to create a 'level'. The XML file indicates which tile goes where on the 'level'. The XML file is roughly 1.9MB and has roughly16,000 entries (the program creates a level that is 4096 x 4096 pixels using 32 x 32 pixel tiles).
Running and closing the program from source code runs exactly as expected. Running the program from my version runs exactly as expected. Closing it does not. It basically hangs up for about 2 minutes on close. (for reference every loads in about 3 seconds). I've determined that it is the XML file that is causing the problem by excluding the portion where it loads the XML. In that case it closes fine. If I cut it down to just a few records, my program closes fine as well. So it seems like the program is having trouble dumping the XML document at close.
I've tried to track down any differences between the source code and my code, and the only thing that I have found is that the References in mine are all using .NET version 4.0 and the references in the source are using mostly 2.0 and some 3.5 (System.Data.DataSetExtensions, System.XML.Ling.dll, and System.Core.dll)
The code for the entire form is:
Imports System.Xml
Public Class Form1
Public Structure tilemapStruct

I wrote a UDF to enable users to run Macro`s in excel here is the function below
Private Sub RunExcelMacros(ByVal Path As String, ByVal MacroName As String)
Dim oExcel As Excel.Application
Dim oBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim oBooks As Excel.Workbooks
[code].....
And to use it just call the udf with the 2 parameters like below
RunExcelMacros("c:MyExcelBook.xls", "TheNetMacro")
just remember that you have to have an excel sheet with a macro named TheNetMacro or any other name you want to give it.

I'm trying to copy a Range from Excel and Paste the information in powerpoint in either the HTML or the default format, however, I am having some difficulties. I am able to get the code to work for pasting the Range as an OLE Object but nothing else. The problem with doing this is that having the embedded excel documents in the powerpoint makes the file extremely large and unstable. I just need to be able to paste the information without the embedded information where it is editable (so, not as a bitmap or picture).
With ppt2Slide
Sheets(index2).Activate
Range("CP12:CT" & RangeIndex2).Copy

I'm creating a macro in excel using vb?What the macro is doing is checking if the row and column headers are same, and if it is then I want it to save the row header (the date in this case) AND the value (a number) into an array, and this is done in a for loop and goes on.... I dont know if I should use 2-D array or a 1-D array that stores 2 values....Not sure at all !Then after the outer most FOR LOOP is done, I want to print those values stored in the array.
Here is what I have so far, this works actually however i'm using 2 seperate arrays, one to store the row header (the date) and another array to store the value. But really I want to make it simpler, shorter and use only one array that stores both of these values as we go through the for loop and at the end of the for loop, all the values from beginning which are stored can be printed out.
Here is my code :
Sub Test ()
Dim sys_arr() As String ' declaring the array to store the values
Dim sys_date_arr() As String 'declaring the array to store the dates
[code]....
This totally works but with 2 different arrays, all I want is just 1 single array (not sure if it is 2-dimensions or still stays as 1 dimension but with 2 different variables)... and then the array can store the date and variable correspondant to the date, and goes to the next row, and do same thing... So the output results should be like for eg :
2/12/2010 37
2/13/2010 41
2/14/2010 66
and so forth

I'm guessing the reason this macro isn't doing what I want it to is because of an error on my part in the code. Basically, I want the values in the cells pointed out in the code to be increased by 10% each time the button is pushed.
Here is the code:
Sub Add10percent()
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 2, 0.1
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 4, 0.1
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 6, 0.1
IncreaseColumnValuesBy10Percent 8, 0.1

What is the best way for me to have several datasets ?i've thought about creating a routine for creating datasets with a number in their names, each one with the desired data, but that's not very intelligent (although might work)i'd like to create what would be like an "ARRAY OF DATASETS"
[Code]...
(obs, i've done the same code loading one XML to one dataset and it works perfectly, i've gone back and forth more than one time to assure that it isn't just a logical mistake, it's syntax and lack of programming knowlegde.
