Import A Tab Delimited File Into Excel And Export It Back
Sep 24, 2009
I have to import a tab delimited file into Excel and export it back out to correct a formatting issue caused by FoxPro. I need to pad a column with 10, Zeros and that is good with this here: objxl.columns("B:B").numberformat="0000000000". However I have 2 cells in the sheet, row 1B and 2B that I want to exclude from the number format above. Because it is a date field and it writes to that same column so it pads my date. I do have a need to Pad that date field with mmddyyyy so I have to pad it 8 - zeros.

I have created an application that can store employees details, that part is not a problem and frankly is sorted, I have used a sql database to save my data, all information is displayed in TextBox controls on my main form.
The part I am struggling with is creating 2 buttons.
The first button I want to be able to import data from an excel file into my data set
The second button I want to create is a back-up button, which exports all the data from my dataset into an excel file

Now i'm coding for a project in VB.net that allow user to browse to text files (i am done), after that i have to import this text file into access.
The problem i have to import a pipe delimited file (it is: #), that '#' help to distinguish each filed.
Example: my text file is: #BC2323#23241#12345. This mean that: There are 3 fileds in it: BC2323; 23241; 12345.
There is my coding for browse any text file:
Private Sub btnBrowse_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnBrowse.Click
Dim alltext, lineoftext As String
OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Text files (*.txt)|*.TXT"

I used to just code up a module that looked like this Ref to MS Access 11.0 Obj Lib was set
Dim myaccess as New Access.Application
myAccess = CreateObject("Access.Application")
myAccess.Visible = false
myAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase("c:\path\databaseName.mdb")
But now it seems that even with that ref included, none of these commands exist. From what I've been reading online, to do this via .net, you have to parse the file out and create a serious of SQL inserts. I'm assuming/hoping/praying that there is a more efficient way to do this...

I am new to the VB Forums. I searched the forums for an answer, but could not find one that exactly fit my issue. I apologize if I missed it. What I am doing is I'm pulling strings of text from a backslash-delimited text file and throwing it into a (Of String, Array) dictionary. This info is then displayed, added to, removed from, through the use of the form. Changes to the entries (new, old, or otherwise) then need to be written back in the same delimited format to the text file.

I am just trying figure out a record import program from text file into access database using Microsoft.Jet.Oledb Provider 4.0 and Vb.net. And it seems easy but my problem is different. In the text file, records are not delimited.
Format of the text file:
Field Name & Size
Date[Date,ShortDate]FirstName[20]LastName[20]Sex[1]Age[2]
[Code]....
Can I put delimiter programmatically while reading the text file using stream reader and later simply import the whole file in DB.

I have a VB project that reads data from SQL as well as pulls data from other files into SQL. I need to import a text file into SQL table; there is no headers in the file and table in SQL is already exists. I found a code in Forum and slightly modified it, but I'm still missing something. I'm not sure how to specify that the text file is delimited with "|" character? Also - since there is no headers - not sure how to import it into correct columns? On the code below I'm getting "Insert" syntax error; on prior version of the code I was getting "field F1 doesn't exist".

I'm trying to import a tab delimited file into a table.The issue is, SOMETIMES, the file will include an awkward record that has two "null values" and causes my program to throw a "unexpected end of file".For example, each record will have 20 fields. But the last record will have only two fields (two null values), and hence, unexpected EOF.
Currently I'm using a StreamReader. I've tried counting the lines and telling bcp to stop reading before the "phantom nulls", but StreamReader gets an incorrect count of lines due to the "phantom nulls".I've tried the following code to get rid of all bogus code (code borrowed off the net). But it just replaces the fields with empty spaces (I'd like the result of no line left behind).
Public Sub RemoveBlankRowsFromCVSFile2(ByVal filepath As String)
If filepath = DBNull.Value.ToString() Or filepath.Length = 0 Then Throw New ArgumentNullException("filepath")
If (File.Exists(filepath) = False) Then Throw New FileNotFoundException("Could not find CSV file.", filepath)
[code]....
I've tried using SSIS, but it encounters the EOF unexpected error.

I wanna make a program that will create a batch file and convert it to exe. Problem is that at the batch code there's a line that needs the program wget.exe in the same directory to work. Is it possible to bind wget.exe into the final exe (The bat converted to exe), and when it's ran to export wget.exe in the same directory?

I am creating a shell for a FORTRAN application which reads a tab delimited text file.Because I am using Excel to manipulate data, is it possible to use the Excel Automation features to "save as" a tab delimited text file?The only method available seems to be a unicode text format, which does not work. Or is there another format that mimics tab delimited so that the FORTRAN application will read such a file without difficulty?

I am using asp.net oledb to export information to excel file. I encounter problems when the information to export becomes too big, in this case the code I have given below, the excel file generated becomes an empty spreadsheet.If I changed the loop to 1123 for insertion of the rows. The generated excel file is fine, 1125 rows, and 4 columns shown.A test program in windows form is also working fine regardless of how many rows.[code]I couldn't find a solution to my problem as well. What I did eventually was to run the process using another separate windows service. The code works perfectly fine running from a windows form or service program, but not asp.net, not sure why.

I have ran into an issue where I need to save some Excel data to a semicolon delimited file. (Why is an issue unto itself) And I can not find a way to do this using VB. In excel I can use Import Semicolon delimited files but I can not find a way to save them. Is there a VB constant or method I can use to save semicolon delimited files without having to write my own save procedure to format the data? such as the xlCSV, xlDIF, xlTextMSDos formats. I would think that since it can import this format that it should be able to save it.

I need to export Chart(image) and grid (tabular) row data into excel file. I can not use automation because Office tools are not installed in my server. I've found a bunch of free/proprietary tools like:
NPOI
MyXLS
ExcelWriter (softartisans)
JetCell (DevTrio)
Aspose.Cells (Aspose)
But I do not know which one is better for my needs. I need to export not only grid row data but also Chart (image), thats why I am thinking about.

So i'm new to working with vba in access and i'm having trouble getting this code to work. What it is suppose to do is take a selected text file and read the original file into a list box. Then there is a second button that when pressed will convert the text file from a pipe delimited file into a tab delimited file and then show the changed file into a new listbox.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Function GetFilenameFromPath(ByVal strPath As String) As String

I am trying to write a program that can open text files and export the text (which would be written in VBScript) as an .exe. Can't think of anything more to add.
The program is a host. Clients connect to it. When the client sends "/create [name of exe]" with a winsock control, the host will wait for the content of the .txt it will write. The content of the next message over winsock will me saved in a .txt. The host will then open this text file, then save it again as an .exe. The client will then be able to send "/run [name of exe]", and the host will run it. Is it possible?

I like to compress the xmldata before the data is provided to the client as an excel file. I am trying to compress and deliver it as a .zip file. its not working Here's my code below. I tried compressing it, converting it to bytes etc etc. The issue with below code is, the XSL transformation is not happening properly and the output excel file is raw xml with some .net exception at the end. (that's what I see on the .xls file that's downloaded at the end) Before I started working on compression my below code was working fine that gives properly formatted excel file from the xml input. the excel file is so nice you can't even tell it was from XML.
