Sql - Query Excel Using ADO When A Column Name Is A Number

Feb 8, 2011

I am using VB.NET to query via SQL an Excel spreadsheet using ADO. The general way is like this: SELECT [firstname], [secondname] FROM [Sheet1$] Which works perfectly
However, one of the headings is called 3, so I want to do: SELECT [firstname], [secondname], [3] FROM [Sheet1$] However, this does not work. I know I can use * to get all columns, but later on I want to use (using dataReader): dr("3") which won't work

Get Excel Cell By Row NUMBER And Column Letter?

Jul 19, 2011

In VB.NET, using Interop.Excel, I need to access a cell based on a row number and column letter. I tried my luck with...

pages.title = DirectCast(wksht.Cells(rows, "D"), Excel.Range).Value

Since the parameters took type object, I figured maybe this would work, but got no luck. I also thought of enumerating each letter to a number, but the columns in the spreadsheet aren't as normal. Meaning, they're not

A B C D E F G

They're actually...

A B C D E T AZ

I don't know if this makes a difference in the numbering of the columns. The question should be obvious, but just to reiterate, how can I get a cell based on a row number and column letter?

Change Excel 2007 Column Cell Format To Number No Decimal?

May 26, 2011

VB.NET code to change Excel 2007 Column Cell Format from Text to a Number no Decimal.

Right now Column F shows values that look like

3E+13
3E+13

Manually changing it to a Number with No Decimal shows the correct value.
30000046605562
30000041582875

Of course I would like to automate this.

Executing A Sql Command - Number Of Values Provided Must Be Equal To The Number Of Placeholders In Query?

Aug 11, 2010

I have a problem with a sql query. Through the query I am trying to search database for any occurrences of string (can be anything) in a column using the SQL LIKE command. The problem is that it works fine for most of the strings say john, jim, ji"m , but does not work when i include the following characters which are ( ' , { , } , and a single quotation mark). MYSQL query takes care of these special cases by putting them in [] block whenever user enters them .But i am getting the following error when i go to query the database using the GetSelectCommand() in VB.NET

Exception Details: System.ApplicationException: Number of values provided must be equal to the number of placeholders in query.I have checked the query over and over again .. but its fine .My database server is Sql Server 2008.So my application throws the exception in this command:

Using reader As MustDisposeDataReader = _
pmSystem.DatabaseManager.GetSelectCommand(selectStatementBuilder.ToString(), New Object() {})

Where MustDisposeDataReader is an instance of a class in an internally developed library, which inherits from System.Object. pmSystem is an instance of the class PlanManagerSystem which implements the commandlayer. GetSelectCommand() takes the select command

Ort The Column Like A Normal Number-column With Automatic Sortmode?

Sep 5, 2010

I wrote a function to format numbers like this: 123456100,12 -> 123.456.100,12 (I have a function too, which converts numbers from this strings).Now, I have a dgv and a column with these numbers (or rather strings). The sort mode is set to automatic. If I sort the column, it doesn't work, because the values are not really numbers, but strings. But I get the same result (the sorting doesn't work), if I use the formatnumber function (this returns strings too).

I could use the programmatic sort mode and before sorting I format the strings to numbers, then sort the column, and then format the numbers like above. But this is a bit slow (the dgv has appr. 800 rows), and in this case, I haven't an arrow next to the column header text.is it possible to sort the column like a normal number-column with automatic sortmode?

I'm doing a notepad project, just because, and in Ms's notepad there is an option for a statusstrip. I'm just having probems getting the line number and I know it's not called column number, more like selection start. When I do the selection start, it works, just not how I want it to like so:

Skipping The Last Number In A Query?

Jun 25, 2010

This is my frist post on the forum So I hope I am giving enough info, If not let me know if there isanything I missed.I have currently completed a project where I do a Query in SQL Server 2000 in VB 2010 and produce reports for each Tax id. When I Debug the program it finds the number and processes the reports, when I just let it run as an executable it does not pick up or find the number.

This number happens to be the last number coming back from the query and it processess in a loop while Not filename.EOF it goes thru 4 seperate routines and then loops back to get the next taxid. I did not put any routines to sleep and I am thinking maybe the application is just stepping on itself, could this be right? Thecreatereport path does a sql execute for the appropriated Table against the TaxID an the current Cycledate, then produces the report va CR2010(beta) and exports it as a pdf file to a directory on the shared sever.

Select Query Using Date Column?

Mar 30, 2009

The data type for my DATE column in SQL is smalldatetime. I want to perform a query which selects records based on the the selected date of a calendar object.

A user clicks on the date and the date is stored in ddlfilter2 DDLfilter2.Items.Add(CalendarMain.SelectedDate)

mystring = "SELECT * FROM view_main where date" & "='" & DDLFilter2.Text & "'"

produces this "select * from view_main where date='24/03/2009'

I then get an error saying "The conversion of char data type to smalldatetime data type resulted in an out-of-range smalldatetime value."

In the SQL database the data is displayed as "24/03/2009 00:00:00" is this why the query is failing?

Show A Query Alias In Column?

Aug 13, 2009

I am using a databound datagridview control. I created a custom query to fill the grid with which includes joins and using alias names in the sql query for the joined fields. Here is the query I am using:

SELECT Events.[Date], Events.[Time], Contacts.LastName AS Lastname, Contacts.FirstName AS Firstname
FROM (Events INNER JOIN
Contacts ON Events.ContactID = Contacts.ContactID)

The datagrid views fine using the columns that are in the events table. I want to be able to view the aliased columns from the contacts table in the datagridview as well.

How can I display the joined columns in the datagridview? Maybe there is a better way to do this? Maybe this is not enough information for a resolution.

Datagridview Column Order From Linq Query?

Mar 19, 2010

I am using a modal form with a datagridview in order to populate textboxes on a parent form. The datagridview is bound to an anonymous type resulting from a linq query, which varies depending on the textbox control whose keypress event is called. I always want to display a key value in column 0 of the datagridview (along with a variable number of additional columns), and then use that key value once the user selects a row.

However, when setting an anonymous type from a linq query as the datasource for a datagridview control, the columns are indexed alphabetically rather than in the sequence selected in the query. This requires setting the displayindex as a workaround, and then keeping track of which column contains my key value. I read elsewhere that this was something fixed in VS2008 SP1, but I still encounter the behavior.

Query Dataset Column For Only Rows With Text?

Sep 19, 2009

I have a dataset column that I am keeping comments in. If the row has no comment in it(defualt string value is "", not NULL), I don't want it to show up on my report. How can I fill only the datarows that have text in them and not the ones that are empty. I've tried to filter the columns results by Not Nothing, but everything shows up. I'm guessing because it's actually not NULL since the string is "". How can I filter these results correctly?
