View 8 RepliesI have got a page in which there is a file upload option where I have to upload/import the csv file. What I want to do is to check if the correct format of file is uploaded for instance if any other than csv file is uploaded, the system should give an error message. Also what I need to do is to check certain fields of the csv file for instance there are some mandatory fields in the csv file which should be there like name , postcode, How can I check that these fields are not empty . After performing these task, the system should automatically upload the csv file onto the sql sever 2008.

This code works as expected but I would like to increase the performance since it takes over 30 sec to complete. I will be moving to a stored procedure later but would like to find out how to optimize the current code. This is more for experience than anything. It is a project that I am working on for codeplex.

View 3 RepliesI 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?
I 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.

I 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.

View 5 RepliesI have made an application to read data from an excel file and save to database "Access". It's working perfect except one thing that..There are 4 columns in excel file as :
Shop no
owner address
alternate member address
permanent member address
For all fields i have kept same datatype in database as "text". As in above image In Column A "shop no" in some rows there are same shop no with A,B,C classes. Now when I am uploading this excel file it saving all data, but in Column A cells which having only numbers would be saving to database eg: 185, 187, 188. And the cells which has both number and class eg: 185 A, 185 B would be reading as null values.
I am working on a comparison tool that will take an excel file and a .csv file and find differences. The user is going to be selecting the two files from their local machine via the .NET FileUpload control. The issue I am running into is that I don't want to write the files to the server first so using something like below won't work for me, as "Book1.xls" or even " + FilePath + " in place of it won't work. I need to be able to read the posted files into memory, then create maybe datatables of them, then do my comparison code.

How can I read into clean data from a FileUpload control of an Excel document?
I have an excel sheet with 2 tabs and has data in those 2 sheets(sheet1, sheet2) which correspond to different tables in the same database.
