View 8 RepliesI am reading a CSV file created by Excel. the string I am reading needs to be encoded (it shows small boxes instead of hebrew characters) so I wrote a lil routine to convert the string -
Function encodeName(ByVal name As String) As String
Dim src As Encoding = Encoding.UTF8
Dim dest As Encoding = Encoding.Default
Dim srcBytes() As Byte
srcBytes = src.GetBytes(name)
Dim asciiBytes() As Byte = Encoding.Convert(src, dest, srcBytes)
Dim mychars(dest.GetCharCount(asciiBytes) - 1) As Char
dest.GetChars(asciiBytes, 0, asciiBytes.Length, mychars, 0)
Dim asciiString As New String(mychars)
End Function
From what I read FileStream.ReadLine reads the text with encoding UTF8 so I try to convert from UTF8 to Encoding.Default buy instead of little boxes I get question marks.

View 1 RepliesI have some code that reads records from an excel file and then imports that data into an sql database. The issue only happens when the excel file has more then 350 rows in it. In the middle of the import it just stops executing and I get directed to the 'Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage' page or just a blank page when using firefox.
I dont get any time out errors or any error at all but still I tried messing around with the script timeout settings but still does the same thing at about the 2 min 30 sec mark.

I need to be able to read an excel file from a file upload control but I can not save the file to disk first, it must be done in memory.
[Code]....
Above is my code for reading the data file if it IS saved to disk, but again, I have to be able to do this without saving the file to disk, it must be done in memory. I have not been able to find any sample code anywhere on how to do this from memory, everything seems to force the file be uploaded, saved to disk, and then read in the connection string, which again I can not do.
I understand how to use a connection string object to read excel sheets. What I don't know is how to follow a hyperlink inside excel, grab matching data from the linked page and return it to my database. Essentially, the spreadsheet has two columns:
Title | Class#
Class# has the hyperlink which links to an internal web site. The connected page has a course description and any pre-required classes that must be taken before you can take this class. This is where I'm rather stumped as I've not had to do this type of thing before.
I have a way to read and excel file, see below,
[Code]....
But some times the file that is read, reports that there is more rows than there actually are. i.e. I only have 300 lines of data but the read reads in 500. My question is, and I am sure I have seen this somewhere but I cannot find it now, is how do I get the reader to stop reading at the first blank line?

View 8 Repliesi have try to export data to excel using gridview.
I have export it successfully but some data is missing which is due to the column format in the exported excel file is not TEXT .
[Code]....
I need to set the exported excel file column format to TEXT but find no solution on this.

View 3 RepliesI need to read an Excel work book with 2 sheet which have more than 60,000 records. The application is an ASP.Net application so the performance matters.
Which approach should I take? Sohuld I do it using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel or should I do it using OLEDB in ADO.Net?
I can directly use to read and display Excel or CSV files using asp web control(GridView, sqldatasource etc). I do NOT want to upload the file first to an sql database before reading them, I just want to read the files directly. I am using asp.net 2.0 and c#.

View 2 RepliesI have a web page with a gridview control and a button for Exporting to Excel
I get following error when exporting to Excel.
"The file you are trying to open, 'someFileName[1].xls, is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?"
Clicking Yes opens the file. I would like to avoid showing the above error to the users.
Following code is used from the click event. I've left the commented code here to show what I've tried based on results from internet search. I have Microsoft Office Excel 2007 on local PC.

I want to Export my gridview to Excel BIFF. Could any one suggest the approaches to do this.
View 2 RepliesI know this is probably a pretty easy thing to do and it is if I can upload the file and store it onto the hard drive of the server. What I need to do is read the text file into memory and then parse through it one line at a time. Anyone have any code that demonstrates that?

I am trying to create double and number format cells in excel using NPOI library. I used code like
Dim cell As HSSFCell = row.CreateCell(j)
cell.SetCellValue(Double.Parse(dr(col).ToString))
In excel numbers are aligning right but when I check format it is showing in "General"
then I changed my code to like below
Dim cell As HSSFCell = row.CreateCell(j)
cell.SetCellValue(Double.Parse(dr(col).ToString))
Dim cellStyle As HSSFCellStyle = hssfworkbook.CreateCellStyle
cellStyle.DataFormat = HSSFDataFormat.GetBuiltinFormat("#,#0.0")
cell.CellStyle = cellStyle
Then While opening file it is giving error and also taking so long to open. But Excel format showing in "Number" error showing is like below.
I'm building a User Control that will allow a user to select input parameters, run a query and then view the results in a GridView control. That part is obviously very easy. However, I've been asked to also provide the option of viewing and/or printing the data in a PDF, Excel or CSV file format.
Are there any .Net 2.0, built-in classes that allow for exporting and printing data in these formats in Visual Studio 2005?
A couple of years ago, I worked on a website that offered this functionality in Crystal Reports, but on this particular assignment, we aren't currently using Crystal - I'm not at work right now, and I can't remember if we're running the "Standard" or "Enterprise" edition of Visual Studio.
I'm exporting data to an excel sheet from the ojects list. The data is exporting to excel sheet well, but I'm unable to see the grid format for the data. The data is looking with out the rows and columns lines.I think I'm missing to set some property or somethnig ehwn exporting.

View 5 RepliesI have a page that does an upload of an xlsx file to a datatable and write into SQL.
That is working, my problem is when i upload the file and pass the values to the datatable some of them are showing in the wrong format and the column name dont
appears.
e.g.:
Hours at home
Hours working
3:00
8:00
01-01-1900 1:35:00
01-01-1900 2:35:00
01-01-1900 3:35:00
The first 2 columns its how i want the info the third is how my problem looks like.
I've tested and the problem occurs when the same column has more than one value.
The format of the cells is h:mm if i change it to text it works fine but i dont want that because the time will be converted to semething like this 0,123456789.
I dont know if it matters but the xlsx file is kinda complex and has 10,2MB.
