Close excel programmatically after user cancels file selection

Greetings all. I apologize but I incorrectly posted this question on the wrong board originally so am posting it again here. I have a VI that I wrote with some help from this site that reads in as many user selected Flat Data Files as desired into Excel. The VI opens Excel, places each Flat Data File on one row and ends, allowing the user to manipulate the Excel data as desired. I have tested it without problems with up to 100 files at a time. The VI minimizes Excel at startup so that it will not block the Select File(s) dialogue. MY problem is this: If the user cancels the file selection, it returns an error and leaves Excel open. I understand how to handle the error, but have been unable to make Excel close automatically if the action is canceled. I have tried to invoke the Close without saving node with no luck... probably because I don't understand how to apply it. Ideally, I want to take the error number to a case statement, and if it is anything other than zero (0), meaning no error, I want Excel to close down. This will eventually be an executable so I need to make this right. Can anybody help? I have attached a zip file with the VI's and some sample Flat Data Files.
Thanks

If you want anything to run after an error you must clear the error status boolean from the error cluster. To do this use the bundle by name and set the status value to FALSE, take this output cluster into the function you wish to run.

  • How to close browser window after user log out

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how I can close browser window after user logs out. The scenario is when user clicks a log out button I will invalidate user session and close the browser right away in the backing bean.
    Your help would be appreciated.

    Try run this and you'll see that it runs fine with no exceptions:
    <%
         String someText = "bla bla bla";
         response.setContentType("text/plain");
         response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=message.txt");
         try {
              ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
              os.write(someText.getBytes());
              os.flush();
              os.close();
         } catch (Exception e) {
              out.println("ERROR: " + e);
    %>It looks like that after I've closed the outputStream I can't do any more processing in the JSP. Even if I remove the setContentType and setHeader methods it still behaves this way.
    I'm starting to think that there's no way around this...??

  • How to close browser window after flushing a file to the browser?

    I have this simple JSP, which flushes a String to the browser as a file (message.txt). The JSP gets opened in a new window when the user clicks a link.
    The problem is that after the JSP has run, the browser window won't close automatically. I've tried adding a small javascript to achieve this, but i doesn't seem to even get run.
    How can I close the browser window after the JSP has run?
    <%
         String someText = "bla bla bla";
         // Flush to browser
         response.setContentType("text/plain");
         response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=message.txt");
         try {
              ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
              os.write(someText.getBytes());
              os.flush();
              os.close();
         } catch (IOException e) {
              return;
         } catch (Exception e) {
              return;
    %>
    <script type="text/javascript">

  • Memory usage of excel stays high after Macro is executed and excel crashes after trying to close it

    Hi,
    I'm trying to resolve an issue with an excel based tool. The macros retrieve data from an Oracle database and do calculations with the data. They also open and write into files in the same directory. The macros all run and finish the calculations. I can
    continue to use and modify the sheet. I can also close the workbook, however excel memory usage I see in the windows Task manager stays elevated.If I  close Excel it says: Excel stopped working and then it tries to recover information...
    I assume something in the macro did not finish properly and memory was not released. I would like to check what is still open (connection, stream or any other object) when I close the workbook I would like to have a list of all still used memory. Is there
    a possibility to do so.

  • Cancel download method when the user cancel the download file

    I have a method that download a file ("downloadLog_action()")when the user click over the comandlink component and the dialog box is opening to save the file, but how to know that the user canceled the download file to cancel all accions.
    This is the code of the commandlink in the jspx page that call the method and pass one parameter:
    <af:commandLink binding="#{ConsultaValidacion.commandLink1}"
    id="commandLink1"
    action="#{ConsultaValidacion.descargarLog_action}"
    text="Log">
    <f:param name="codInstitucion"
    value="#{row.CodInstitucion}"
    binding="#{ConsultaValidacion.codInstitucion}"
    id="codInstitucion"/>
    </af:commandLink>
    This is the method to download the file:
    HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)fctx.getExternalContext().getResponse();
    response.setContentType("application/x-download");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachement; filename=\"Log_" +
    codigoInstitucion + ".txt\"");
    response.setContentLength((new Long(blob.getLength())).intValue());
    //Streams de entrada y salida
    InputStream is;
    OutputStream out;
    try {
    //Obtenemos el stream de entrada el cual se lo extrae de la BD
    is = blob.getInputStream();
    //Obtenemos el stream de salida para el cliente
    out = response.getOutputStream();
    //Sección de código que me permite escribir los datos en el stream de salida
    int size = (new Long(blob.getLength())).intValue();
    byte[] buffer = new byte[size];
    int length = -1;
    while ((length = is.read(buffer)) != -1) {
    out.write(buffer, 0, length);
    //Cerramos los streams
    out.flush();
    is.close();
    out.close();
    *//Una vez descargado todo el LOG actualizamos el contador. HERE IS THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE COUNTER IS UPDATING WHEN THE USER CANCEL THE DOWNLOAD!!! AND ITS WRONG*
    row.setNumDescargaLog(new Number(num + 1));
    //Guardamos los cambios
    webRvc.getAppModuleWebRvc().getDBTransaction().commit();
    //Request lifecyce understands that the response is completed and no further action needs to happen
    fctx.responseComplete();
    } catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    webRvc.close("Consulta bitacoras validacion");
    return null;
    } catch (JboException ex) {
    webRvc.getAppModuleWebRvc().getDBTransaction().rollback();
    webRvc.close("Consulta bitacoras validacion");
    return null;
    This works fine.
    The problem occurs when the user cancels the download, because all the sentences run including updating the counter downloads, the counter only to be updated only when the user chooses to save the file.

    Hi.
    The problem is when the user cancel the dowload I do not know how to capture the user's response.
    How to capture the response?
    if(cancelled) <------Is there a parameter to tell me this?
    ......<your cancel code>..... none
    else
    .....<your non-cancel code>...THE METHOD THAT DOWNLOAD THE FILE - "downloadLog_action()" and increment the counter
    Thanks.

  • Excel not letting user save to shared drive, only user using the files, yet it says someone else is using the file.

    I have seen this problem discussed before, but have never seen a clear cut solution.
    I have a user using Excel 2013. She can create and open files locally, but when she tries to move or save to a shared network drive, she gets the error "Someone else is working in (shared drive/filename) please try again later. She's the only one using
    the file most of the time.
    I have done a repair on the Office installation, but the user is still having the issue, and I need to remedy this. She has appropriate file/folder permissions on the network. Really stuck on this one.

    Hi,
    As we know, Office creates TMP files like "$.tmp file" when you open a document. Saving does not delete the files if we still have them open. And this issue occur with network drive not local disk, so
    it might be caused with the account permission of the network drive. If your user has no delete permission, the temp file might be not delete after closed the file. Please try to check the permission first.
    Then, if there are some mistaken operations when using the files in network drive, we could delete the temp file manually, and then the error would disappear. Please see the similar thread:

  • Download connections doesn't close after I cancel the download, it keep like I am download and only close when I disable the network adapter or reset the router or the firewall

    download connections doesn't close after I cancel the download, it keep like I am downloading and only close when I disable the network adapter or reset the router or the firewall.
    I use pfsense as my firewall and see the traffic not reseting to zero when I cancel download.
    Also, IE doesn't have this problem. When I cancel the download the traffic drops to zero.

    And this problem seems to be systemwide. Since I created a new user and under which problem still exists.
    Hope apple will look into it

    Actually you need to quit Safari which is different from closing.  With Safari open go the menu bar for Safari/Quit Safari.

  • Can't select user for file sharing with windows

    I'm trying to share my MBPr over my LAN with my windows 8 desktop. When i go to the file sharing options, under "Windows File Sharing" section, the user account i want to share (my main account) is greyed out, so I can not select it. The other user account is selectable though.
    Any reason why I can't select my main account??

    wow, is that all it took? I spent several hours on support chat who ultimately made me create a new user account and import all my old account data over to that one. It worked, but would have been way easier to just change the password. Oh well. It's fixed now...

  • Cannot link files in illustrator CC, as finder window closes by itself after installing maverick

    Hi, After installing Mavericks (Doh!) I can no longer link files in illustrator CC as the finder window closes by itself after one second or if I click on anything. It was happening with save as also, but that seems to have rectified itself by reinstalling the program. Anyone any thoughts? Im in a spot of bother!
