Update An Excel Cell By Using The Cell Name - Not The Row And Column?
Jun 7, 2010
I would like to update an Excel cell using the cell name, such as "A1", instead of using the row and column, such as (3,2). I haven't been able to do it. Here is the code I used to update the cell by row and column. How would this code be updated so that it updates the cell by cell name instead?
I need to display the column header and cell value of the clicked cell in the data grid. For example if I click Argentina from the country column, the text box will display country = Argentina.So far the code I have is, please help me figure out the code for displaying the information in the text box

I'm using something call ultragrid in my program.The program works as a mini-record keeping area (Like any datagrid, really). Well, I am adding a history to it and it allows the user to see the last 50 records searched. They get a grid showing the records. This, thus far, works perfectly What I want to do is this: I want to select a record (A cell) in the column 'Dog and have the text of that cell appear in a textbox. This is what I've tried with no success.
HTML Private Sub HistoryTextBox_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles HistoryTextBox.TextChanged If ugHistoryButton.ActiveRow.Cells("Dog").Selected = True Then
[code]....
It just doesn't seem to want to transfer over when I select the cell in the 'Dog' column.
I'm attempting to copy cells, one at a time, from an Excel 2003 (or 2007) spreadsheet to a Word 2003 (or 2007) table. I'd like the code to be version-agnostic, and so am using late binding. The formatting of the contents of the Excel cell, such as color, underline, strike-through, needs to be preserved. My approach is to use a Word doc as a template. It has a table at the top which I can copy to the end of the doc, add rows as needed, and fill in the word table cells with the data from the excel spreadsheet. Unfortunately, all the formatting disappears. All I get is the text itself.
I have user form that copies data form on excel sheet to anther after the paste takes place.I need to perform a cleanup process. If the cell Value = N/A or the Cell formating is Strike thruIt need to1) Cut the Entire row 2) Shift the Row up3) Then paste the cut row into an anther sheet in the workbook

I have a spreadsheet that I need to trim 3 columns. I have scoured the net but can't find anything that I've been able to use to trim each cell in columns A, H and I. I am using Excel 2003 and VS2005.
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?
I have code that will plus Row but need help with pluse column.Full code snippets:
Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop Public Class Form1 Private Sub ButtonTab_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ButtonTab.Click Dim MyExcel As New Excel.Application
I am attempting to copy the value of the TimeStamp in cell A6 which has the NOW() formula into cell A5 Based on a change in Cell A4. The catch is I don't want it to update every time the sheet is recalculated due to updating links in other cells on the sheet. ONLY when Cell A4 Changes. What do I do?
The problem is that if you never enter anything into a cell for a new row then that cell is never validated. This is a problem because I have columns that should not be null. I am doing the check in the row level validation and storing the information about which cells are empty that should not be empty. The row level validation works fine and the row level validation error indicator goes on,(red exclamation mark at the beginning of the row) but I also need a visual indicator on the individual cells that are in error.
I am thinking that setting the HasError property for the cells that are in error should cause them to display n error style (the default red border). Is there a way to this this either from XAML (perferably) or from code?Alternatively I could cause those cells to re-validate when the row editing is finished. Does anyone know how to do this?
Have this code so that when a checkbox in a column of my datagridview is checked, then the corresponding cell in column 2 (of the same row the check box is in) will turn blue with font color white.
[code]...
I'd also like to add a line so that as well as the cell going blue, the bottom border of the cell disappears, so cellborderstyle = none.
I have a DataGridView with several columns. One column is a TextBox column named "Status". This column can only show one of three values: 'Final', 'Ready', or 'No Reportable'. I want to have some code that would turn the TextBox cell into a ComboBox cell when the user left-clicks on the cell to allow the user to choose one of these three options. When the user clicks elsewhere or the cell loses focus I want the cell to change back to a TextBox cell.
Here is what I have so far, but the code throws an exception indicated below Plus, I don't think the code would remove the combobox when the cell loses focus.
Exception: "Provided cell does not belong to this DataGridView control."

I have a datagrid that will be accepting data from an external measuring device via the serial port. The grid is also open to editing records as well. Part of the process of making this grid user friendly is to intercept the "enter" key and move to the next cell until there is a value in the cell. This is only for some cells, other cells can be blank. I have worked out how to intercept the "enter" key from another post on this forum. Here is the code:
I am trying to test certain cell values to see if they contain subtrings of a certain format at the END of the cell sting value.E.G.I have cells with the values...
324f5 346-ssth 4565-Q1-09 dsfsd46
[code].....
I want to run a macro that searches through the cells and tests to see if they have a substring sitting at the end of the value that is in the format "-Q[number]-[number][number]" OR "-[3 LETTER MONTH ABBREVIATION][number]-[number][number]" OR "-[3 LETTER MONTH ABBREVIATION][number][number]-[number][number]"and then if the test is true, the cell color is changed to RED.So if I ran the macro on the example I gave above, it would turn the cells with the following values red:
4565-Q1-09 454354-FEB2-09 546-5-MAR03-09
I can do all the VB side of things but I don't know Regex but know it would help. I'm in a bit of a rush to finish this job for work because I finish working here in 2 days and need to get it done before I leave!
I'm trying to create a datagridviewrow and add data to it at runtime. I want the row to have the cells correspond to the columns in a datagridview, so that when I add data to the cells i can call the column name (the columns are likely to change around, so i think the name is better to use then the index).I create the row using the following code:
Dim row As New DataGridViewRow row.CreateCells(Datagrid)
and the column using the following code:
Dim col As New DataGridViewComboBoxColumn col.HeaderText = "Reference" col.Name = "Reference" datagrid.Columns.Insert(0, col)
I would like to add data to the row via the following code (or something similar that uses the column name instead of the index:
arow.Cells("Reference").Value = Detail.Reference
However at runtime I get the exception Column named Reference cannot be found. Parameter name: columnName I have a sneaking suspicion that the cells cannot be accessed with the column name because the row isnt really attached to columns yet (the row hasnt been added to the datagridview yet. (I tried cloning the cells of a row and then adding them to the row but no success)?
Datagridview . in cell validated handler and I have the column,row for the cell that I just checked on. If the cell contents are bad, I want to force the cell value to be blank and focus back on that particular cell and try again.The code i've tried simply moves to the next cell in the grid instead of staying where I want it to be. Surely there is a command to focus and put the 'cursor' back in a particular cell.Some sample code I'm working with:
MsgBox( "Invalid Job#, Correct or DIE!") JLgrid.Item(0, Row).Value =
If a column contains null dbnull value in sql server database then how can i replace it with "N/A" string when i view the database table in datagridview
I'm using a matrix DataTable bound to a DataGrid. Cell edits aren't committed to the DataTable until a different row is clicked. How can I commit changes when any cell gets focus?
So I've got 2 unbound datagridviews, and am providing a push/pull interface where the user can move records from one to the other.
Grid A is read-only and the selectionmode is set to FullRowSelect. Grid B has a read-only DataGridViewTextBoxCell, an editable DataGridViewComboBoxCell, and an editable DataGridViewComboBoxCell.
Because the grids have different columns, but represent the same records, my notion was to create the datagridviews with the same column structure but hiding certain columns, and then just move the DataGridViewRows back and forth between the two, which seams to work.
The problem is that if I go into column 2 or 3 in grid B, I get "Current cell cannot be set to an invisible cell".
I can select cells in column A and I'm fine. It should be noted that on grid B the hidden columns are 4-7.
I know there's a problem when the CurrentCell attribute is set to a hidden cell, but I'm clicking visible cells. I inserted a breakpoint on the CellClick event of the DGV, and again for column 1 that works fine, but on columns 2 and 3 it looks like the error is occuring before the event even gets fired.
Is something in the background setting CurrentCell to one of the hidden cells before firing the event?
