I am new to VB.NET. How to import data from excel spread sheet into database (SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005) by clicking a button in windows form application using VB codes (visual studio 2010).
View 1 RepliesWhat I was wondering is if I had a ListView1 with 1 row and 5 subitems, could I export that whole row into an Microsoft Office Excel spreadsheet, by defining in which Excell row/column I want to add each subitem into?
View 8 RepliesSo I need to create a windows form that is able to generate reports by querying a SQL Database or SQL Server. There is data in the databases that will be put into an excel file from whatever columns from a specific table I need. I need it to be a dynamic query that is probably hard coded into the application because I might need to write other queries at some point to generate different reports that need different columns.
What I need is somewhere to start or some code that I can look at because im not very familiar when it comes to vb.net/excel. I need code to get all that data from the database and put it neatly in an excel file and I would like to specify what columns in the excel file all the data goes under.
I am trying to import data from an excel file but the spreadsheet name is causing problem. If I use 'Sheet1' as the name of the spreadsheet from which I want data, then it works fine but I want to change the name of the spreadsheet to the name which has spaces like 'PROJECT SHEET'. Please guide
Dim ExcelFile As String = "C:ProjectFile.xlsx"
Dim myDatabasePath as string = "C:ProjectsDatabase.mdb"
Dim excelConnectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + ExcelFile + ";Extended Properties=""Excel 12.0 Xml;HRD=NO"""
Dim excelConnection As New OleDbConnection(excelConnectionString)
excelConnection.Open()

I am trying to write data to an excel spreadsheet. Simply just todays date and the value of textbox1. I can successfully write it to excel, but how do I get it so each time the application runs it writes the data to the next available row?? I know there must be some loop involved but am having trouble with the coding..
this is what I have so far.

I am trying to import data from a server and put it into an excel sheet. I have included (imported) the Microsfot.Office.Interop package into my program. I have been looking through the Object Browser to find the correct commands to add this imported data. Should the ListColumns.Add and Listrows.Add functions be used in this spot? I have started a code however, it was initially going to be used with human interaction. The new direction is to make it automated. The section of code I have written follows:
#Region " (Import Data) This function will import the PI Tag Names and desired Attributes into an Excel worksheet "
Private Sub Import()

After the nvs.Add("changer", 1) there are many more attributes that are going to be added to the excel file but I did not feel they needed to be shown here.
I have a form that allows a user to import a spreadsheet. This spreadsheet is generally static when it comes to column headers, but now the users want to be able to include an optional column (called Notes). My code crashes when I try to read the column from the spreadsheet if it doesn't exist.

objCommand = ExcelConnection() 'function that opens spreadsheet and returns objCommand

View 1 RepliesI have an project which was written in VB6 and made use of the Spread3.0 component to display multiple large data from database in spreadsheet. My objective is to convert this project into a VB.NET current version which would not use the third party component but can possibly use a freeware that does similar if not all the functionality.
My question is, are there any freeware that is available in .NET for such spreadsheet-like manipulation of data programatically? I have come across dsoFramer but this only allows the display of the data in an IE frame. I would like to jus embed the content into my existing form.
Also this freeware must be able to handle formula and user-editing as well as multiple cell type such as combobox/checkbox etc.

I have a program that currently takes data and writes it to a MS Excel spreadsheet. (automatically opens the program, creates the cells, and fills them with data)
I would like to add an additional feature to my program that offers support for OpenOffice.org's 'Calc' spreadsheet program. (so users without MS Excel can use the application) So I am basically asking if anyone knows how to automate OpenOffice 'Calc' from VB.net. (I am using Visual Studio 2005)
I have searched on the OpenOffice forums but no one seems to know the vb.net code for this. So I was wondering if anyone here has done this, or would know how to do this.
I have been trying for several months (in my spare time) to write a vb.net (version 2010) program that connects to Excel (version 14) and imports numerical data.This data will be used later for engineering calculations.I have tried the Interop code which I have found on the internet with limited success and now I am trying the connection string method.I have found some examples of code, on the internet,that I have pieced together and can't get it to run.Below is that code.
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click[code].......
This is a screen image of the error I get when trying to run the program.
I need to import data from Excel worksheet into the VB.Net program. First, I need to get the data to some array or arraylist and secondly to show the data to user through datagridview or similar.So far, I have this

Dim myDataset As New DataSet()
Dim strConn As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source=C:TempTest.xls ;" & "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;"[code].....
How can I adjust the code to manage that? And how can I import the same range to variables (the range contains approx. 200 rows and 30 columns of data points) and I need the flexibility to add or delete items (rows) from the data in memory later.
I am trying to import some data from excel.i am using visual studio 2008 .net 3.5, on win xp sp3 the data that is being imported form excel is being edited somewhere in the import.i am sure it is somthing todo with the olddb connection.the data is coming out like this 6.05708e+008

I have a VB.Net program that reads in a flat file, and then parses line by line, formatting the data into different spreadsheets in an excel workbook (each line can be any 10+ different record types so I parse and put in appropriate excel sheet).
For smaller sized flat files (under 10mb), the parser works great. However, I am trying this on a file that is over 120mb (400k+ lines). While running, I will get an OleDBException saying that the spreadsheet is full. Now I am pretty confident that Excel can handle a much larger data set than a flat file. So I assume this exception is not giving me the true story as to what is really occuring.
I open a connection, and then parse each line in the file, inserting each row into the excel file. I assumed it would be bad performance wise to open/close the connection between each insert. Could this be causing the issue? Any ideas what I need to do to handle such a large file? There are cases where the flat file can be over 500mb.
To actually do the insert into excel, I am just doing the following (I construct an sql query based on the type of row and values parsed):
Dim conn As New OleDbConnection()
conn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + ExportLocation.Text + "" + importFileName + "-PVF.xls;Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES"""
