Create and name new worksheets in existing excel spreadsheet

Hello-
I am running LabVIEW 6i and excel2000. I need to write data acquired in LabVIEW to new worksheets of an already existing excel spreadsheet, and also name these new worksheets. I have been able to create the new worksheets but haven't yet figured out how to name them. I'm new to activeX and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Paul,
Programming using ActiveX can be tricky, especially knowing just what kind of datatypes the different methods and properties are expecting. There are 2 ways I would recommend for users to find out about ActiveX parameters:
1. Right-click and choose Help for the specific property/method.
When you have a method or property selected on the Property or Invoke Node, you can right-click and there will be 2 help options--one for the generic Property Node or Invoke Node, the other for the specific method or property that is selected in the node itself. If you select the help for the specific property/method, a Microsoft Visual Basic Reference Help should appear that will provide you with explanations and examples of the datatypes that method/property is expecting given the object that is in use.
2. Go to the MSDN Library >> Excel Object Model
This has an overview of Microsoft's Excel Object Model and will also show you how to use Microsoft's Excel Object Model.
Keep in mind that because ActiveX can be tricky, NI also offers the Report Generation Toolkit to make programming to Word and Excel much easier! Nice tutorials and examples are provided too.

  • How do I add a new worksheet to an excell file utilizing a template with the report generation toolkit?

    Hello,
    My vi is gathering data from a piece of machinery. At varrious points durring the process, my vi must create printable reports. I am using the report generation tool kit to do this. What I want to do is for every report generated durring the run, add it as a new worksheet in an Excell workbook. My excell template works fine for the initial master report and I can add new data to new worksheets. What I am having a problem figuring out is how do I add the new data to a new worksheet using an excel template? I have 5 different reports that need to be generated at different times with some more often than others. I would like all these reports to be in the
    same master excel file. Thanks in advance

    Hi Greg,
    There is no built-in support in LabVIEW to add a new worksheet to an existing Excel report simply because this functionality does not exist in the Excel application itself.
    My suggestion would be to open up the template you wish to use for the new worksheet. Copy the cells from the template and paste them into your new worksheet that you've created. Then close the original template and you have another copy of the template in which you can populate with data values.
    I have attached an example program of how to Copy and Paste a Cell in Microsoft 97 Using ActiveX in LabVIEW to this post. Hope this helps!

  • How does APEX create and save new files. What extension does it save in?

    Hi can someone help me with this question?
    How does APEX create and save new files. What extension does it save in?
    Cheers!
    VJ

    It's really too bad we can't see VJ's face when the concept sinks in. This is one of my favorite moments when teaching APEX classes. Most people love it, some people don't. If nothing else it really proves the power and performance of the Oracle database. Each page view can generate 40+ queries, yet on the average system this takes less than .04 seconds.
    Keep in mind there are no undocumented features or "Oracle Internals" that the APEX team uses to achieve this performance, just sound database design. With every feature they add they evaluate how it will be used and design the tables and indexes to most efficiently answer the query. Sometimes this means going against "purist" normalized principals.

  • Can you create a new table from an Excel spreadsheet

    It would be GREAT if there was a way to use SQL Developer to take an Excel Spreadsheet, and create a new table based on it - does anyone know if that's possible?
    Thanks,

    Excellent - yes, from the thread on the SQLDeveloper website, it looks like you will be able to create a new table from an .xls file - very cool!
    Does anyone know when version 1.1 is supposed to be coming out?

  • Cancelling a line and and adding new lines to existing PO using API

    Hi,
    Can any one please help me know how I can cancel a line and insert new lines into a existing PO using any API.
    Many Thanks,

      However, if you do not want a contract on the new lines, (since you will have your own equipment), the activation fee will be $35.00 per line.  If you agree to a 2-year contract for the share lines, the activation fees will be $25.00 per line.   
    You can add the new lines by calling our Telesales Department at 800-256-4646.  
    Thank you,
    Really?!  I didn't know that made a difference...I thought secondary lines were $25 - well, ya learn something new every day!
    And a side note - we added a line for my 75+ yr old mother with one of our old flip phones and CS was extremely kind in waiving the activation fee (I could have sworn it was $25 charged and credited on the bill), PLUS they boxed up the flip phone after activating it (with an out of state number to boot) and shipped it to my Mom, all at no additional cost to me.  I'm not saying that will be everyone's experience, and I was amazed the service rep offered to ship it for me - but I smiled and said "THANK YOU!" and accepted it!

  • Create a PDF Form that populates an Excel spreadsheet?

    Hello, I have basic experience with InDesign and would like to do something a bit daunting (don't know if it's even possible).
    I'm coordinating an awards competition where people will fill out a form and I'd like that data to populate an Excel spreadsheet. I also make these forms publicly available so I would need a way to 'lock' the form from being edited.
    I want to layout my form in InDesign and give it a few data fields (e.g. Name, contact information, etc...) and radio buttons (e.g. which awards category would you like to compete in). There are some data fields (e.g. provide background information on your submission) that I do not need populating my Excel spreadsheet.
    The Excel spreadsheet will simply be used for administrative purposes (e.g. keep track of how many people are competing in a specific category).
    Is this possible? Any online tutorials that people can direct me to? Thanks!

    Yoou can design the form in ID, then export to PDF and use Acrobat to convert to a form and "publish." You have several options on how you get the data back from the published form, and one is designed to allow you to populate a spreadsheet, I believe, but that's really an Acrobat topic. How large scale will the distribution be? A standard Acrobat license permits only 500 returns.
