Filter excel data using activex

Hi,
I have imported some datas to excel using labview, and using activex I can able to apply filter also. Attached screenshot is sample excel data. In that, I want column 3 to filter only 500 and then 100 and so on. Is it possible in activex. Because after filtering 500 I want to find least value for athoer columns 1st and put it in another sheet, then filter 100-->find least value-->put it in another sheet. So what I want now is to filter 500 alone in column 3 using activex. thanks in advance
Thanks & Regards

Excel operation using activex

I am trying to use activex with labview to copy a specific worksheet from a multi-sheet excel file to another spreadsheet file. How can I do this? Any example vi? All my example files are about making a copy within the same file.
Yin

Yin,
You can use the VI from the following web site
Writing Rows to Excel 97 and Excel 2000 Using ActiveX
The VI allows you to write to a specific worksheet. You can use some of the SubVIs provided to first get a reference to the worksheet in the first workbook, for example SelectSheet and OpenSheet VIs.
Or you can look into LabVIEW shipping examples on Excel, Write Table to XL VI, which also allows you to open specific Worksheet.
Some good examples on how to read from Excel using Activex are located on these web sites:
Reading Values from Microsoft Excel 97, Excel 2000, or Excel XP Worksheets
Write and Read to an Excel 2000 Spreadsheet via ActiveX

How can I add excel pictures using activex

I would like to be able to use activex to insert an image into an excel spreadsheet. I know how to read and write data, but the chart feature is too cunmbersome and when I updated excel to 2007 most of the calls stopped working. I see that there is a pictures property/method that lets me specify an image file, but I don't know which property/method(s) to call it from.

2007 does take more time to draw the data on the chart. I am not having any problems with errors on the active X for 2007. I is much slower than 2003 I would agree. My IT group moved us to 2007 so I am stuck with it no matter how slow it is. I am trying to figure out how to get the help file back. I had these in 2003 myself. I know it has nothing to do with LabVIEW. It is an add in or some switch that you need to throw in excel to allow for this connection.

For sure the file is there, the _application object gets created without an error.
Creation of the application object has nothing to do with opening the workbook, which is what is generating the error. If you are getting an error with opening the workbook then you either have the wrong path, a permissions issue, a network issue, or the file is already open.

How to change series or line color in excel 2007 using ActiveX

I am trying to change series color using Excel 2007 with ActiveX as below. It seems the color cannot be controlled correctly. For example, if I chosse red color, my curve will be changed to blue. Any ideas?
Also, I googled and found a guy ran into similiar problem using VBA for Excel 2007. See the link below:
http://help.wugnet.com/office/change-series-line-color-excel-2007-vba-ftopict1062646.html
Set ch = Worksheets("Chart").ChartObjects(1)
Set objSeries = ch.Chart.SeriesCollection(1)
objSeries.Format.Line.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(255, 127, 0)
According to the post, it need to be done as follows
objSeries.Border.Color = RGB(255, 127, 0) . But I cannot find the border property/method in ActiveX.
The color seems to be abitrary. and I found the

Xubuli,
I looked into your question and confirmed that Border.Color is not located under the Excel.Series library. Instead, you must locate it under _Worksheet.UsedRange as seen below in the figure. I am attaching the VI file where I located the the Border.Color property node, and I am also including a SubVI on the block diagram that goes into explicitly set the cell color and border. This SubVI can be found under Programming>>Report Generation>>Excel Specific>>Excel Format>>Excel Set Cell Color and Border.vi, if you have the Report Generation Toolkit installed. I hope this helps.

Thanks Jhoskin and Rudi .......
I am able to write data to excel sheet now. I am attaching one"test.zip" file that contains a VI named "Squence.vi "that contains another subVI named "Write U94006 Table To XL.vi"which does the functionality of counting the number of rows in the excel sheet and writing data in the next blank row. I am using the same subVI in the VI named "Sequence.vi"two times so it is taking a lot of time in opening and closing the excel sheet. Will you please suggest some way of calling the subVI only one time.

Ever get error code "-2146827284" when trying to open an Excel workbook using ActiveX

The error message claims that the file cannot be found, but the file is clearly there. Ever seen this?
Strangely, this happens on one machine, but not on another. I'm suspecting some kind of ActiveX incompatibility and would love suggestions on how to track this bugger down (I submitted to support also).
Thanks
Brad
The attached vi exhibits this behavior (on one machine anyway)...

footest.vi ‏30 KB

Brad,
My suggestion is that if you know exactly where does your Excel ActiveX Library resides, please look for it and re-register it in windows, using the regsvr32 command. If not, please check wether the Excel version of the machine that is having problems is the same version as the machine where it is actually working. Last resource you may want to try to reinstall Excel after trying some of the Excel examples that came with LabVIEW. If you feel that you need more direct assistance please contact us directly, you may wish to call us or email us and you can find the information for doing so at www.ni.com/ask in the internet.
Good luck!

Problem in getting EXCEL data using I_OI_SPREADSHEET

Hello All,
My requirement is to read data from Excel document having multiple worksheets. I am successful in getting all worksheets in the excel using the method spreadsheet->select_sheet.
Now I face problems while using spreadsheet_get_ranges_data. I dont have any range to select from the worksheets. When my program executes contents internal table which is importing paramater from get_ranges_data method is not getting me data from EXCEL.
Can you please give me hint or solution to solve this issue.

Hello Norman,
Thanks for your response. But the solution is not really working for my case.
Step1: call class method spreadsheet->select_sheet
Step2: call class method spreadsheet->get_active_sheet
Step3: call class method i_oi_document_proxy->select_all
Step4: call class method spreadsheet->get_selection
Step5: Call class method spreadsheet->insert_range_dim
passing parameters selected from step 2.
But the problem is parameters (top,left,rows,columns) values supplied in step 3 is not giving me correct rows,columns that is in my EXCEL worksheet.
I have 3 rows and 3 columns, but I get 1 row and 1 column and 26 as top.
Let me know whether I am doing anything wrong in my calls to class?!.

How to write to a password protected excel sheet using ActiveX?

Hi all,
I would like to write to a protected Excel sheet. I protect the sheet just in case the data is not wrongly programmatically saved to other cells. These cells contained formulas.
Please help.
Thanks,

Hi Randy,
Thank you for looking into my problem.
I have looked into the Workbook.open property node. There is "password" on the property node. Please see attached diagrams.
Is is the right way to do it?
Please advise further.
For your information, the Excel workbook and sheet 1 are password protected.

Efficiency of using activeX for Excel

I've been using data logging for our test fixtures in .tsv files, but our engineers want to automate it further by organizing some new data into several sheets, so I'm looking into manipulating Excel directly using ActiveX.
My question is how efficient is it to write this in ActiveX compared to just making a text file? I'm concerned that, since we're going to be writing some 50000 cells or something, that it'll suck up a lot of memory to do it through ActiveX.
Is this a legitimate concern, or am I just being paranoid?
Anything worth doing is worth over-doing.
LabVIEW Junkie

Thanks for all the help, guys!
A couple of things -- first off, I'd love to look at that code if you get a chance. But what I'm concerned about is if I create an array of 50000 values or something like that and write it all in one go at the end of the program, two things are going to happen: 1) it's going to take a really long time to finish the program, and 2) if the program crashes in that final step, I'll lose all the data. That second reason is why I currently write a line every cycle to the .tsv file.
What I'm thinking of doing, is meeting you halfway -- rather than write each cell individually, write each line individually within the spreadsheet. This should reduce the memory used (hopefully) and increase performance.
I haven't really played around with TDMS yet, I'll look into it. A couple questions on that -- does it write in excel format? The reason I ask is the second sheet that I'm supposed to add is not going to contain any changing data -- it's just to store some constants that are set on the front panel. If TDMS stores data in excel format, I can write it to TDMS, transfer to Excel, and then use ActiveX to add the second worksheet with the constants at the end of the program. How's that sound?
Thanks again!

Upload excel data into Internal table

Hi,
I'm trying to upload excel data into internal table, well the excel file layout will be different on each run of the report.
Excel file will have 60 columns and 500 record limit. I can upload the excel data using 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE' and 'KCD_EXCEL_OLE_TO_INT_CONVERT' but the output table is generates 60 lines for each record i.e.., 60 * 500 = 30,000 which could cause performance.
I try with the FM 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP', but this will only work if the file structure is static. It didn't work for dynamic file layout. Even GUI_UPLOAD doesn't work to upload excel file, it will work if I convert the file to Tab delimited file.
Please advise if you know any alternate procedure to upload excel data into internal table.
Thanks,

Reading Excel data through java servlets

I am doing a project in jsp and servlet. During the project i have to read some excel data from the excel sheet and store them to DB2 database. While reading from the data from the excel sheet a problem occurred. I have used the poi package to read the data from the excel sheet and the code is correct and it reads the excel sheet. Now i just displayed the number of rows and cells in the excel sheet and while displaying the value of the every cell, the servlet displays only the address of each cell instead of displaying the value. Here i am attaching the code that i have used and the output of the servlet.
One more thing that i have noticed here is i just wrote a simple java program to read the excel data using the same steps that used earlier in the servlet. In this case the program displays the actual value of the excel cell.
Could you please help me to solve the problem.
