Does Numbers recognise dropboxes in a existing Excel file, say as pop-ups?

I need to use an existing Excel file containing drop boxes, save it, and transefer the amended xls file to a PC. Will Numbers handle this? Thanks

Unfortunately not. Excel uses data validation while Numbers has a special cell format called a pop up menu. They are not compatible in either direction. They get replaced with whatever value is currently in the cell.

I export an ACCESS table to an existing Excel file. Seemed like it was working fine, but now I see that it DOES NOT clear the file first.

Thus - if I transferred 10 records last time, and there are only 6 to transfer this time, it replaces records 1 thru 6 in Excel, but LEAVES records 7-10 in the Excel file ??

When you export the access Table to an existing excel file ,you should get the message like the screenshot below:
If you click 'Yes' ,a new workbook will created ,the problem you mentioned doesn't exist.
Maybe you can try to export data within Excel. On the Data Tab->Click
From Access->choose the database file, then when you update your database in Access, these data will updated automatically.

Writing to specific cells of existing Excel file and saving as a new file using LV 8.6

Hi all,
I am new to LV and am currently tasked to create a program that can open an existing excel file, input data in the program that will be written to a specific cell in the excel file and then saving the current edited file as a new file.
I have browsed through all the forums but I am unable to view the examples sent in them as I am using LV 8.6 which is why I am still having trouble visualizing how to create a program like this. Can anyone help me and mentor me how to write this program in this version of LV? I do not have a microsoft office toolkit hence another approach could be preferred. Thank you.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thank you for helping me on this. However I do not really understand how does ActiveEx work. I have created a Vi according to the picture that you provided but there was some error in running the file.
Below is my own VI that I am trying to create. It consists of multiple string inputs which I am trying to input each into an existing file. I have created a separate txt file which has the cell numbers. I am trying to allocate each string into each respective cell in an existing file. I am currently having the problem of doing this "allocation" of each string as I do not have the microsoft office tool kit. Is there any other way for me to do so?
Also, I would like to save the newly created file as a new file with the name as seen in my VI. How would I be able to do it?
Please help me as I am stuck here but do not know how to continue

How to Append an existing Excel file?

I am using the jexcel api to write to a new excel file. Each time i run my program, it creates a new Excel File by the name i give it. my code to create the excelFile is as below:-
File excelFile=new File(workDir+"\\"+fileName+".xls");
WritableWorkbook workbook = Workbook.createWorkbook(excelFile);
After this code i write some data to a worksheet in the above mentioned excel file. But my requirement is that I want to create the excel if it does not exist, and if it exists, then the data should be appended to the worksheet in the existing excel file. At present it creates a new excel file and does not append it.
How can it be done? does anyone have any suggestions as to how can i tackle this problem? please suggest something.

There is no ready-to-run example, as you are searching for, available.
This has several reasons:
- It depends on the version of Excel. Examples for Excel 2007 might not work with Excel 2010 for instance.
- No one just wants to open Excel without doing anything with it.
The second point is something, i want to ask you:
Why do you want to open an existing Excel file at all? What is it, what you want to do after opening it?
If you have LV/C/C#/VB examples doing what you are looking for, why do you want to have it in TestStand directly, so NOT using existing code (saving time and effort) and basically re-inventing the wheel?
ActiveX is an interface for remote controlling and embedding applications with/in other applications on Windows systems. It is a PROGRAMMING interface.
So naturally, examples and tutorials exist for programming languages. Those examples are easily converted to TestStand sequences with a basic knowledge of the programming language and TestStand. Providing links for such tutorials/examples is a valid way to give support to fellow developers because we expect the fellow to have that basic knowledge.
If that knowledge is not present, i highly recommend to fill that gap.
just my 2 cents,
Norbert

Writting to an specific spreadsheet of an existing excel file.

I need to write a labview 2-D array of real numbers to an specifc spreadsheet of an existing excel file (which has many sheets and is located in my hard disk).
Some years ago a member forum wrote a nice and small code for writting to excel. The code is http://forums.ni.com/ni/attachments/ni/6170/107/1/Excel.vi and was posted here http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=6170&thread.id=105
I found that it would be useful after some modifications. How to modify it in order to get what I need? (Obs.: My LabVIEW version is 8.0)

There is a function to do that in the Excel specific VIs palette of the Report Generation Toolkit. Of course you need to have the toolkit installed. You can also use the invoke and property nodes on the Excel object but you have to find out what are the appropriate methods to use and propriety to set (you should find the information in an Excel programming manual. in VBA it is something like worksheet("Sheet2").Select). You can use the Workbook OPEN method to open the Excel workbook saved on you hard disk (connect your file path to the Filename input of the invoke node).

Aattach an existing Excel file to an email from SAP system.

Hi,
How can I attach an existing Excel file from SAP system (Example in 'DIR_TEMP' folder) & send a mail. Guess this requires a class with a method which picks up the file using the file path. Does CL_DOCUMENT_BCS provides this???? boz CL_DOCUMENT_BCS->ADD_DOCUMENT_AS_ATTACHMENT is for Add Existing Document as an Attachment,if so please let me know how with few lines of code??
Thankx in advance.

Report Generation tool kit for MS office (Opening an existing excel file and appending to the bottom)

I don't have any problems creating and filling an excel sheet with data. I use the New Report.vi, Easy Title.vi, and Easy Text.vi to create the file. I then save and dispose properly.
What I don't seem to be able to do is open the exsting file and append data to the end of the sheet.
Thanks in advance for your help.
todd

Hi Todd,
You can do this by creating a new Excel report with the existing excel file path wired to the "template" input. Then use "Excel Get Last Row.vi" (located under Report Generation\Excel Specific\Excel General) to obtain the location of the last row. Then use that location to input new data into the file.
Hope this helps,
Dan

How to get data from an existing Excel file using report generation toolkit

I'm trying to use the Excel Get Data vi from the report generation toolkit, but i can't figure out how to turn a browsable path into the right type for the VI. I've tried using the New Report.vi, but that doesn't work unless you use a template. It won't open an existing excel file and make it an open report to pull data from.
Essentially, i have a bunch of excel files that have data in them and i want to use a VI to analyze the data. So, i'm trying to pull in all the data directly from the excel file so i don't have to reproscess them all into text so i can use the more standard spreadsheet VIs. But to even convert the excel file programtically in labview won't i still need to be able to open the excel file and get the data?

Got it,
the reason why I can view it using my Excel file because its in .CSV.
I open Microsoft Excel to open .CSV file.
But you can also open .csv file with notepad.
So, you cannot open .xls with Read Spreadsheet File

Hi marmik,
1. There is some trick involved
in the binary files.
2. I have made a program (and it works fantastic)
ONLY 6 LINES FOR EMAILING
BELIEVE ME
ITS A FANTASTIC PROGRAM.
IT WILL WORK LIKE OUTLOOK EXPRESS !
3. The user is provided with
a) file name
b) email address to send mail
and it sends ANY FILE (.xls,.pdf .xyz..)
Instantaneously !
4. Make two things first :
1. Include with the name : ZAMI_INCLFOR_MAIL
2. Report with the name : ZAM_TEMP147 (any name will do)
3. Activate both and execute (2)
4. After providing filename, email adress
5. Code for Include :

Open an existing Excel file created by Report Generation Toolkit

How would I open an existing Excel file that has been created by the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit?
Let me explain my application. I have made a test program to collect data on a device. Each time I run the program I want it to append a new row onto an existing data file. Since the tests I do are sometimes over a period of days, I cannot keep the program open and running continuously. So I have to open an existing file and append the new data to it. In technical terms, what I need is to get the 'report out' reference to the existing Excel data file without losing the data that is already there.

For info on accessing Excel do a search in the examples for the word "Excel" you will get an example that shows how to open a spreadsheet and manipulate the data. This should get you started.

When i debug   CALL METHOD OF h_mapl 'Open' is giving SY-SUBRC = 2.
Please advice how to proceed.

What is the best way to insert massive data into an existing excel file?

dear gurus,
i am wondering that what is the best way to insert massive data into an existing excel file, more performance perspective.
the file is read from BDS , and we want to insert data into it .
the way i can think of is
1. OLE AUTOMATION
   i think performance will be a big problem
2. Office integration
    i am not sure it's facing the same performance issue ?
3 . XXL_SIMPLE_API/FULL_API
    I am not sure whether they can insert data into an existing excel file?
could you please give me some advices?

How to export diadem channels to an existing excel file with a certain configuration

Hello,
I would like to export some channels from the Data Portal of Diadem to an existing excel file. The excel file consists of many spreadsheets and each channel should match one spreadsheet.
I´ve tried to use EXCELExport() function but it doesn´t work.(this function is designed for something else, it generates a new excel file). I´ve tried to access to each spreadsheet and copy the information throughout a for statement but this solution needs a lot of time. If somebody has any idea, please help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Ovidius,
You have two options that I can think of. You can export the data from the Data Portal to a temporary file, probably a CSV file, then load the data from file into the Excel template, OR you could stick with the Excel ActiveX approach but change to assigning a range of cells instead of individual cell values one at a time.
There is an Excel File Export option in DIAdem, but it always creates a new Excel file, it can not be used to export to an existing Excel file.
