Is there a way to interactiv​ely select a worksheet from an Excel workbook in Labview?

All of the examples that I can find only allow you to select a sheet by knowing it's index number or the exact name of the sheet.  I haven't been able to query or otherwise find out what sheets are in the workbook to allow the operator select one.

Partha,
I tried tracking down the exact thread that Mike was linking, to no avail, but maybe this would help you out just as much:

  • Is there a way to make a tabbed form? Like an Excel workbook, have named tabs.

    In Excel you can have multiple tabs with multiple pages connected to it.  Is it possible to create a similar experience in Adobe forms?  like how there are tabs in Livecycle to switch between Design, Master, and Preview.  Can you make tabs in the form itself?
    Thanks!

    Here's one attempt at trying to implement tabs,

  • Is there a way to get the selection order for selectedProperties?

    app.project.activeItem.selectedLayers seems to be ordered by the selection order, but app.project.activeItem.selectedProperties (at least in Shape Layers) seems to be ordered by the stacking order. Is there a way to get the selection order for selectedProperties?
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    i had tried to investigate this a while back and it's really hard to figure out.
    The array seems to be reorganized using various rules:
         At layer level : preserve the user layer selection order,
         Children of indexed groups : propertyIndex ordering,
         Children of named groups : some internal ordering.
    The following is may be more detail than necessary, and given that it is based on observation, not official docs, it is not so reliable, but well, it might still be of interest !!
    Say you have 2 selected properties A, and B, and call [COMMON PARENT] their "greatest common ancestor", that is:
            A = [COMMON PARENT].property(a1).... property(aA);
            B = [COMMON PARENT].property(b1).... ...property(bB);
    with a1 != b1. Then:
    if [COMMON PARENT] = A (ie if A is an ancestor of B), then A comes first.
            For instance: if you select comp.layer(1).mask(1).maskPath, there are 2 selected properties, the mask group and its maskPath: the first is the group and the second the path (the parent comes first).
    if [COMMON PARENT] is the containing composition, ie A is a property inside comp.layer(a1), and B a property inside comp.layer(b1), then A and B are ordered according to the layers selection order.
            This can have some strange side effects. For instance:
                deselect everything
                select comp.layer(2) (and nothing else)
                select comp.layer(1).transform.position
                select comp.layer(2).transform.position
                ===> comp.selectedProperties = [comp.layer(2).transform.position, comp.layer(1).transform.position] even though the first entry was effectively selected after the second...
    if [COMMON PARENT] is an indexed group, A and B are ordered by propertyIndex
            For instance:
                if you select comp.layer(1).mask(2), then comp.layer(1).mask(1), mask(1) appears before mask(2)
    if [COMMON PARENT] is a named group, ... no clue (internal ordering).
            For instance, at propertyDepth 1, it seems that Time Remapping < Effects < Masks < Material Options < Transform, etc, independantly of the selection order, and this is also not the propertyIndex ordering.
            At higher depth, in CS5 the ordering seems to be the propertyIndex ordering, but it is no longer true in CC.
            For instance, selected Position (index 2), Scale (index 6) and Opacity (index 11) in various order on the same layer.
            in CS5 : selectedProperties = [Position, Scale, Opacity];    // propertyIndex ordering, always
            in CC : selectedProperties = [Scale, Position, Opacity];    // always the same ordering, but not the propertyIndex one
    So the ordering is a lexicographic ordering (Compare the ancestor of depth 0. If no difference, compare the ancestor of depth 1. If no diff, compare the ancestor at depth 2. And so forth).
    But at each step, the comparaison depends on the type of the ancestor, and when the type is named group, the ordering is internal so we can't know.
    Practically the most important thing is that selected properties seem to be reorganized by "containing layer" (the layer selection is preserved),
    and then in each layer selected properties are "grouped by same parent": you can't have a mask related property, then an effect related property, then another mask related property:
    all masks related properties appears together, all effect related properties appear together, etc.
    If several effects are selected, effect(1) and all its properties appear first (if selected), then effect(2) and all its properties would appear second etc
    and so forth

  • Is there any way to convert the selected rows to text in javascript??

    Hi All,
    I have place some word file to indesign cs 5.5 it is almost in one table, i need to separate the text from the real tables, Is there any way to convert the selected rows to text in javascript??
    If there is no way to make that, any one can help me to make a script to cut the selected rows and place it in privies pointer of the table to make it independent table and after that convert it to text ?

    This insert the rows contents after the table instead of being before:
    for (var r = app.selection.length - 1; r >= 0; r--) {
        for (var t = app.selection[r].rows.length - 1; t >= 0; t--) {
            for (var u = app.selection[r].rows[t].cells.length - 1; u >= 0; u--) {
                for (var c = app.selection[r].rows[t].cells[u].paragraphs.length - 1; c >= 0; c--) {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].cells[u].paragraphs[0].move (LocationOptions.AFTER, app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset));
                    if (c != 0)
                        app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\r";
                if (u != 0) {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\t";
                else {
                    app.selection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset.parent.insertionPoints.nextItem(app.se lection[r].rows[t].parent.parent.storyOffset).contents += "\r";
    for (var r = 0; r < app.selection.length; r++) {
        for (var t = app.selection[r].rows.length - 1; t >= 0; t--) {
            app.selection[r].rows[t].remove ();

  • Is there a way to exclude temporary people picker fields from a query when receiving the "List View Lookup Threshold" error.

    Hi All,
    My users require the ability to select a sharepoint group from a drop down list and then be able to select a user from a people picker based on the drop down selection.    The best solution I was able to up with, was create a people picker
    for each drop down selection and set the Sharepoint group field to the selected group.  All people picker filed are hidden except the one that matches the drop down selection.  When creating an entry from the sharepoint list this method
    works perfectly.
    However, when I add the list onto a site page using an "Listview webpart", then add an infopath web part and then finally connect the two parts, I get a "List View Lookup Threshold" error when selecting an entry from the list.  I
    understand from the error and reading that this error is related to the number of People pickers in the list.   Is there a way to exclude temporary people picker fields from a site page query, as they are only temporary fields to allow the users
    to select a person and then assign the name to another field.

    Hi Dwayne,
    In SharePoint 2013, we could manually create a list for all users. Here are the reference:
    Go to Site Settings >  People and Groups > SiteMembers
    Modify url
    http://sitename/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=8 to
    http://sp/sites/tutu/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0 , now you will see All people in this site.
    Change the view to List view, and copy the listview id in the url
    http://sitename/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0&View={viewID}
    Go to Settings > List settings, copy the list id in the url
    http://sitename/_layouts/15/listedit.aspx?List=listeid&Source=....
    Now type the address in IE:
    http://sitename/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=109&Using=_layouts/query.iqy&List=[LISTID]&View=[VIEWID]&CacheControl , such as
    http://sp/sites/tutu/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=109&Using=_layouts/query.iqy&List=f3958d27-9c2f-4f8d-b221-89466e816667&View=696BFDC5-0C6E-4E27-818F-0E6292A18407&CacheControl=1
    Save the owssvr.jqy from SharePoint site
    Now you could see the file in your desktop with all users, save it as allusers in Excel.
    Then import it to your SharePoint site, add an app > find an app > import spreadsheet

  • Is there a way to copy or back up contacts from my Ipod touch without using Itunes?

    Is there a way to copy or back up contacts from my Ipod touch without using Itunes?

    Are you sure that you can transfer contacts from the iPod to Skydrive?
    I would try the links that I previusly provided and try to get iTunes to see the iPOd so you can do everthing right.
    If you find a computer that can see the iPOd yu can update the iPod on that computer.  See:
    iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5
    Yu can make that your suncing computer by -
    - Transfering iTunes purchases:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Connect the iPod and make a backup by right clicking on the iPOd under Dvices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore from that backup. That will also update the iPod.

  • Is there a way to add to the existing values in a container when a LabVIEW prototype (cluster) changes?

    Is there a way to add to the existing values in a container when a LabVIEW prototype (cluster) changes?
    I have a cluster with 90 values..  ninety!  yes that many.
    Change one bloody value and the prototype changes in the TestStand step...  Reload the prototype and guess what happens??!!??
    All the bloody values get reset to defaults!  AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!
    If it was in one place, I could survive the ordeal.  But I have to change bloody prototypes in many places!!!!
    more AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I can't even copy the bloody values!!!!!!!  AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Are there any tricks that I am not aware of, or have forgotten over the years, or...  ...   something??!!??!???!!
    If there are none, I will have to post an improvement to TestStand..  I should mention I am using an older version (4.1).

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,
    I am not not very famous with LV and its cluster types.
    So no idea if this works (it works for DataTypes updates very well and a LV cluster is Data Type so.... maybe)
    Make a copy of the step that has to be modified to an new sequencefile. 
    Make modifications the in the copy.
    Now you should have the same DataType Name but other contents in the container. Save it.
    Normally there should be a message box that tells you that version has been incremented. - Accept it.
    Set in StationOptions-File "Allow Automatic ...." to Never.
    Open original sequencefile. Now the there must be a type conflict. Accept/Apply to all  "Use Current Loaded.."
    You have updated the type.....
    Hope this worked,

    I have a first generation iPad and got my husband the iPad 2 for xmas.  is there a way to transfer his tiny tower game from my iPad to his without using the same iTunes account?

    Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

  • I have an iphone and an ipad (which are connected by the same apple id) i broke the phone and sold it but i didnt get to factory reset it because it was broken, is there any way for me to wipe my iphone from my ipad?

    i have an iphone and an ipad (which are connected by the same apple id) i broke the phone and sold it but i didnt get to factory reset it because it was broken, is there any way for me to wipe my iphone from my ipad?

    Try this:
    Open the "Find my iPhone" app on your iPad, fill in your AppleID and password at the start up screen, and you should see a list of all your devices and their current location, if connected to a Wi-Fi or mobile data network. Devices not connected will be shown as "offline". But you can still trap on the icon and hit "erase iPhone" in the right hand window.
    If your iPhone is not listed, you did not activate this feature during the setup of the phone and it can't be erased remotely.
    If the phone is listed, even as offline, tap on "erase" to send the erase command. The next time your device will be connected to any kind of network, the content will be erased.

    Depending on how the text interacts visually with the image, it might be possible to use the fill property of the content-aware deletion feature of recent Photoshop versions to remove the text with little or no evidence of the deletion, then apply text over the graphic however you like.

    Is this possible?

    I've just come across Hyper Drive Cloud FTP - which allows you to connect any external harddrive or USB stick via WiFi.
    Looks like a pretty good option.
