C# - Excel Interop - Print Areas - French

Hi,
I'm writing a C# application that manipulates an Excel sheet. That Excel sheet has Print Areas that has to remain intact.
The problem comes from the Office language (French). When I open the Excel Workbook with the Workbooks.Open method, the Print Areas (Zone_d_impression in French Excel) gets renamed to Print_Area. Excel can no longer read the Print Areas once they have been
renamed.
This happens as you open the Workbook, even before saving. If Excel is launched with Visbility enabled, the Print Areas are not work and if you close without saving and open the file manually, the Print Areas are still there. However, if you save the Excel
opened with the interop, the Print Areas are gone even if opened manually afterwards.
Any tips?

Hi,
I'm not exactly sure a screenshot of what exactly could help you. The code? The excel print area names?
I think it's more of a explanable by text issue then screenshot so if you need more details on the issue or my english made my original post misunderstood, please let me know. I'll try to clarify it.
-Edit-
I'll try to explain it a little more in a "Scheme" form:
Description of the Excel workbook :
There is 4 sheets, 3 display and 1 hidden that contains data. The 3 display pages has formulas to concatenate data from the 4th hidden sheet to display it in a legal format. All the cells with formulas or layout in the display sheet are locked and only one
section (range) plus a few cells are filled manually. There can be added rows in the "section" which kills any possibility of setting the print area automatically with a range, which leads me to setting the area in the initial model.
Steps:
-Excel form created using French Excel 2007.
-C# Winform application manages a SQL database (not really important for this issue)
-User clicks on the "Generate" button when all the data in the winform is filled.
-Application checks of there Excel sheet already exists and if not, copys the model sheet.
-Application opens the already in place sheet or the fresh copy. -Print Areas are lost here-
-Application saves the sheet. -Sheet saved with the lost sheets-
My observations:
The Print areas are lost BEFORE SAVING. If the application runs the Excel application with Visibility set to True, and add a break to stop before it set data or save or close the workbook, you already lost them, but if you close the excel without saving
(or kill the application) and open the workbook manually, the Print Areas are still there. The problem happens when the application opens the workbook and not when it manipulates or saves it.
Now the Print Areas are not really "Lost" or "Deleted" or "Broken". The problem is that when opening a workbook with the Excel Interop, it seems to be renaming the Print Areas from French "Zone_d_impression" (remember the Excel used is a French 2007 version)
to "Print_Area". However, the Excel application controlled by the interop is a French version as well, so I have no clue why the interop acts as it needs to adapt the workbook in english if the application it controls is in french. After renaming the Print
Areas to english, they simply appears as "Named Ranges" in excel and does not affect the printing.

  • Excel sheets with defined print areas to pdf

    Hello
    I am trying to convert an Excel file with multiple sheets and defined print areas to pdf using Automator. The problem is that the action "Convert Format of Excel Files" prints everything on all sheets (even information outside the defined print areas).
    Does anyone have a solution to this?
    Thanks!

  • Information of Print Area is missing in VB6 Addin of version Excel 2007 and Excel 2010

    Hallo, 
    I have a problem with my old VB 6 COM Addin. My document has Print Area, but when I use my addin to open this document. The information of print area is lost. 
    This problem takes place only in the following situations.
    If the PrintArea is set in Excel 2007 and 2010, it will be missing. But in Excel 2003 without problem.
    From the code, the  ".ActiveSheet.PageSetup.printArea" is always empty, although when the print area is configurate in Excel 2007 and 2010
    What is the possible reason of this problem?
    Thanks very much.

    There are several things I don't follow in the details you gave
    "I click an excel document in the third-part program and Excel 2007 will be open automatically"
    - Describe the 3rd party program you open the workbook in if not Excel"
    - What do you mean by "click and Excel document", what do you click and where is the document
    - Why click on an Excel document (workbook, worksheet something else?) to get a 3rd party app to automate Excel, then does some other workbook load?
    It's very confusing!
    Did you try the code in VBA in the instance of the workbook whose sheet you want to return the Print Area
    Re: Excel Object Library is 9.0
    Did you set a reference to XL-9 in the test app with my code then transfer to a different system with 2007?
    However, a ref to xl-9 shouldn't be a problem if the code compiled with that ref. If the app/dll is transferred to a different system it will pick up the Excel GUID in that system, which is exactly the same for all versions since Excel97. The only time it
    would be an issue is if code compiled with a new object model is not supported when used with an older Excel object model.
    The fact my code appears to work without error returning the message "Print Area not defined" suggests it is referring to a different workbook, ie one in which the Print-Area has not been defined. Double check which workbook it is referring to,
    eg
    Private Sub cbPrintArea_Click(ByVal Ctrl As Office.CommandBarButton, _
    CancelDefault As Boolean)
    Dim ws As Excel.Worksheet
    Dim s As String, s2 As String
    On Error Resume Next
    s = xlApp.Caption
    If Err.Number Then
    MsgBox "xlApp error " & vbCr & Err.Description
    Exit Sub
    End If
    Set ws = xlApp.ActiveSheet
    s2 = ws.Parent.Name & vbCr & _
    ws.Name & vbCr & _
    ws.Range("A1").Value & vbCr
    If Err.Number > 0 Then
    MsgBox "failed to reference ActiveSheet"
    Else
    s = ws.PageSetup.PrintArea
    If Err.Number Then
    MsgBox Err.Description
    Else
    If Len(s) = 0 Then s = "Print Area not defined"
    MsgBox s2 & vbCr & s
    End If
    End If
    End Sub
    This should confirm the workbook name, activesheet name and value in A1 (before running maybe add the current time in A1 with ctrl-shift-;  in the same workbook as the print-area has been defined)

  • Excel Hanges up after Set Print Area

    A user was having issues with Excel worksheets that were connected to a database freezing after she prints. I tried printing and it worked just fine. She was using Office 365. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and she was having the same issue. We found
    that it only happens after doing "Set Print Area".  I was able to replicate the issue on my installation and the same thing happened. It does not occur when the worksheet is not connected to a database. What causes this? Is there a way to get
    around it?

    Hi,
    Please check the event logs to see if we can find anything that may cause the issue.
    Press Win + R, type "eventvwr" in the blank box, press Enter.

  • How to set a print area in Numbers

    This one should be easy: set print range for the cells that require to be printed. There does not to be a way to do it, or is it so obvious that I missed it?

    Okay, I've been following this conversation, can't keep my mouth shut.
    For what it's worth, I spend about 90% of my work day in excel and while I'm no power user by any means, I'm reasonably competent in it. I think in spreadsheets. It's a curse. I've used every spreadsheet there is that will run on a Mac, and none has even come close to excel's usefulness. Yes, that includes all the third-party attempts that claim to be business-ready. They're just not, and neither is Numbers.
    Crazierthanu, I think excel can at least manage all of the issues you listed. For global settings you can select all the tabs you want to change and any change you make on one will be made on all of the selected tabs. So if you set Portrait and Fit to Page in page setup, all the tabs will print in Portrait and the data fitted to a single sheet. The downside to this is when there are different "sizes" of data on the various tabs; that can result in varying font sizes, another problem. Again in excel (I choose not to capitalize microsoft product names, call it a personal quirk born of extreme disgust with the company), in print view one can, with a few keyboard shortcuts, select the area to be printed and set print area from the context menu. It's very straightforward. And you can select any part of the data to print, eschewing all else. This is how you'd print non-rectangular areas. You can use this function to print discontinuous areas also, though they'll print on separate pages. To print multiple tabs at one time, select each tab you wish to print while holding down Ctnl or Shift.
    Anyway. I sure don't want to sound like an excel supporter because I've put myself through a lot of suffering to avoid having to buy it. And I still haven't. I'll go a long way to keep M$ from getting any of my money. But excel is a good spreadsheet, the best there is so far. Printing should be simple. Maybe M$ patented excel's printing paradigm and no one else can use any of it. That would be par.
    Many of these items are possible in Numbers. What's so frustrating is the screwy slider that makes you print the whole sheet and everything on it. I don't want to print everything on a sheet, and I want to easily select paper orientation (I think someone mentioned how to do that and I'd bet it would work globally by selecting multiple sheets in the left column).
    I too think Nick hit it on the head when he said that you have to compromise sheet layout to fit within Numbers' print paradigm. That's just ridiculous. The application needs to bend to my will just a bit more than that.
    Because I've invested a great deal of hope and what to me is not an insignificant amount of money, I'll learn to use Numbers. But Apple sure missed the boat with this one if they hoped to get excel users to switch. Unless they have a serious personal vendetta against microsoft, pretty much any spreadsheet user in the world will scoff at this first generation attempt and continue using excel. You can sure make "pretty" spreadsheets with Numbers, but it's awful hard to get any work out of it.
    I've printed the Numbers manual and maybe I'll learn what I need to know from reading it. Heaven knows I've read enough excel books! Maybe that's what the first version of Numbers needs - someone to figure out how to use it and write a book for the rest of us. Hey, maybe that can be my retirement fund!

  • Excel Interop

    Hi there!  We have a proposal template in Excel that, in my code, I export to a JPG and attach to an e-mail.  I've been using Excel Interop for this.  Since we've upgraded to .NET 4.5 it isn't working.  I understand there's been some
    changes.  I'll admit I don't understand this stuff.  I grabbed some code off the internet, modified it and have been using it.

    Without really looking at the all of the error information apparently your non development machines must be different in some fashion from your development machine if you've installed your app onto your development machine and it works without being run
    from Visual Studio.
    Just because some .Dlls are on all the machines does not mean they are all the same .Dll's with regard to version or other properties.
    Are all the machines x86 or x64? Is the development machine running x86 or x64 Office? Which version of Office? Is that same version of office (x86 or x64) installed on the non development machines?
    It's possible that using the references on your development machine to install with your app would resolve issues. To do that see this thread
    Line and Rectangle shapes in VS 2013 that provides instruction on how to make your app provide copies of all referenced assemblies so they can be included with the app when it gets installed on a system.
    Also see
    .Net 4.5 - How the Runtime Locates Assemblies.
    And obviously the non development machines have .Net 4.5 installed on them as that is what your app is compiled to.

  • C# - Excel Interop (Parallel.For)

    Hi All,
    I had a Excel Macro which i converted into C#. (Interop)  It has 5 different methods for some calculations for report creation.
    2 method out of these are running very slow due  to complex calculation. (10 minutes each for 40 mb data)
    After checking these methods, I found that there are few "FOR" loops which takes the time. (It iterate each row in sheet and do some calculation for each cell in row)
    After some searching, i found that i can use "parallel.For" loop for enhance performance.
    But Thread throws error "Exception from HRESULT: 0x800AC472".  After searching
    i found that it because of STA.
    Any pointers for better performance with C# to Excel (Interop) parallel programming would be helpful.
    Thanks.
    Thanks & Regards, Rakesh Parmar

    Perhaps you will be also interested in one more optimisation approach. Instead of reading each cell separately, you can transfer a larger range (the entire filled row, or even all of the needed rows) into an array, such as
    ‘object [,] data = (object [,])someRange.Value2’. Then use this bi-dimensional array. See:
    http://www.bing.com/search?q=c%23+increase+excel+performance+range+array.
    You can probably also create several Threads manually (if
    Parallel.For cannot be used) and control the AppartmentState property. Or process the previous array in parallel with threads or with

    I'm trying to print ONE copy of an Excel worksheet (HP 4500, all in one printer) I've tried numerous times and different ideas, but it STILL wants to print 72 copies (and I keep having to cancel printing, but can't get the problem solved.)

    I hope you are doing well other than this issue, Judye
    What excel version are you using?
    Perhaps you can try this;
    Open the Spreadsheet with the data you need and hold down the Ctrl key while highlighting the area of the document you want to print out.
    GO to Page Layout go to Print Area button andSet Print Area… .
    go to Print Titles…  I think  is the last option on the ribbon but I can be wrong,
    click on Print Preview. Now you should be able to preview the area that you are trying to printout.
    You can actually add by selecting the area and using add to print area option. 
    Let me know if this helps if it does not please let me know and be more specific i will do my best to assist you.
    Best of luck

  • No Set Print Area? I'm out.

    I was dealing with problems in printing huge documents.
    I noticed ridiculously there's no Set Print Area and the workarounds are just for Macniacs...
    This is show stopping for me definitely.

    In Numbers the best way to work is to plan your document layout before you start to build it. If you are planning to print only a portion of a table, you can make that a separate table from the beginning, and you place it on a separate page. Or, you con plan to make a separate table that mirrors a part of your larger data set, and again isolate it to a separate page, perhaps a separate sheet but not necessarily, so that when you print you can direct the Print utility to print just the part you want.
    If your data started out being housed in a huge Excel spreadsheet, you're right, the gyrations to print just a part seem burdensome, but aren't really so bad. In Excel, you have to select the area you want to print and then File > Set Print Area. In Numbers, you select the area you want to print, CTRL-C to copy, insert a new Sheet, Edit > Paste Values. Now you're ready to print just that area. It takes virtually the same length of time and is a very transparent process.
    Further, now that you have separated the data you want to print from the whole, you can adorn it with text boxes of explanation, reformat to highlight certain data, etc. and then print. Really a much more civil approach.
    If you're still determined to leave, have a nice trip back.

  • After Upgrade to os 10.6.8 Prints from CS4 Photoshop show blue tint outside the printing area

    After Upgrade to os 10.6.8 from 10.5.8 Prints from CS4 and 5.5 Photoshop show blue tint outside the printing area, not so when printing from CS2. I could not beleive this was still an issue. Is there any known solution to this long ongoing and well known dispute between apple and adobe?

  • Driver wizard says The drivers of your printer are disabled, but doesn't fix.

    OfficeJet 6500 E709a series.  Windows 7 64-bit.       Printer operates from Word, emails, Copy function. Two programs, Photoshop and Printshop, no longer print when directed to print.  Printshop says "Install a printer."  Print Shop has tasks in printer queue and won't print.  Hp Driver Wizard says,
    The current full HP software is already installed for the selected printer but the basic functionality drivers appear to be missing or configured incorrectly.  Click Next.  After the click:     The drivers of your printer are disabled,  Click next to enable them.   
    These responses spool with no further option.

    Hi there mandrelliott,
    Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
    It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
    Best of Luck!

  • Mac OS X 10.7 drivers for HP LaserJet 1300: installation at the "Add Printer" process ended, every time, with message "Currently drivers for this printer are UNavailable..."!   PLEASE HELP?

    APPLE [see Apple Support's Article HT 3669] says Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) has drivers for this Printer. 
    But, every time I've tried installing it to my Mac Book Pro (which came with OS X 10.7), it does recognize that the Printer (connected via USB cable) is HP LaserJet 1300 -- in fact, right below, this statement appears: "The drivers for this Printer are available...".  But, when it comes to the actual process of downloading, the "Add Printer" window -- after 20+ minutes of its "searching" for the drivers -- always ends with the message: "Currently drivers for this printer are UNavailable... contact the manufacturer."!!!  (Can you imagine? Apple says it's available... but its own "Add Printer" process says it's UNavailable!)
    I went to HP's support site, and it, too, says that drivers for this Printer are available!  -- see the 2 links:

    Can somebody help me?  Would very much appreciate it.

    You haven't installed any of the Photoshop updates for CS5.
    Go download and install the updates.

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Printing.  My prints are not printing at the proper size.  If I designate 5x7 it prints at something around 4x3.  I have set all the parameters.

    My prints are not printing at the proper size.  If I designate 5x7 it prints at something around 4x3.  I have set all the parameters.

    When you saye a you have set all the parameters, does that include the cell size in the print module? Are you printing on 5 x 7 paper? And, if you are, have you set that paper size in the page setup?

  • Prints are too dark with CS4

    Hi
    I appreciate that this topic has been covered before but I cannot seem to find a resolution.
    My prints are too dark when I print from CS4 with my Epson Stylus Photo 2100 printer(2200 in the USA).
    I am using Windows Vista 32bit service pack 2.
    My monitor has been calibrated correctly (brightness lever is 117cd/m2)
    I am using genuine Epson Inks and paper (Epson premium semi gloss photo paper)
    I have the latest drivers installed.
    My workflow is Adobe RGB (1998)
    I have turned off color management in the printer and selected the correct paper type etc.
    In Photoshop I have selected Photoshop to color manage my prints and selected the correct
    Epson profile for my paper/ink.
    Black point compensation is on, and the rendering intent is relative colorimetric.
    I am sure that somehow my prints are being double profiled but I do
    not know how to prevent it.
    Has any one found a working solution to this problem/
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    I also ran Disk Utility to repair permissions. The first time through there were maybe 100 repairs made to the AirPort Utility.app. I don't even use AirPort, so I don't understand that.
    I've re-run it two more times and both times kept getting this message:
    2010-04-20 19:22:17 -0500: Repairing permissions for “iMac HD”
    2010-04-20 19:28:05 -0500: Permissions differ on "usr/share/derby", should be drwxr-xr-x , they are lrwxr-xr-x .

    2010-04-20 19:29:08 -0500:
    Do I need to do anything else to fix that file?
    Also, all three times I've repaired permissions it's taken over 5 minutes or more to complete. I've never had it take that long.
