Management of Popups in Excel using ActiveX

I'm having a problem similar to the problem that is referenced in this post:

https://forums.NI.com/T5/LabVIEW/handling-popups-of-Excel-while-editing-it-via-Active-X-control/TD-p...

The difference being...

My company has a "database" Excel that stores all our product information. At the start of my application, I read this database using ActiveX. Recently this Excel sheet has been updated to include new features by someone else in my company.

Now, when you open this particular spreadsheet, I get this message:

It does not come to the front of the screen, and unless the user realizes that it is for the LabVIEW program seems to hang up, causing the user to close the LabVIEW program, because they do not realize that LabVIEW is waiting on Excel, which is waiting on the user to make a selection on this popup.

In the post that I quoted above, they get around this by using a knot of property with the property 'Alerts', set to false. This works to hide mistakes but doesn't seem to work for this instance.

Is it possible, via ActiveX, to "click" the button "Update only ' without the user having to do this.

OR

The worst case scenario, is there a way to bring this popup forward to alert the user that Microsoft Excel requires an entry?

Thank you

  • Create the cell borders in Excel using ActiveX

    Hi all

    Thank you to everyone who has helped me in my adventures of ActiveX.

    My current question is, how to create LabVIEW equivalent to these lines VB code:

    Sincerely,

    You got most of the way. Keep in mind the Excel macro recorder is VERY inefficient if you can complete get rid of select. In addition, the VBE (visual basic editor) turn on Excel the 'window' (Ctrl + G). In this window, you can type something like this:

    ? xlNone

    ? xlEdgeLeft

    to return the numeric value associated with the enum value. In addition, by pressing F2 in the VBE will bring up the object browser that you will find these object and find digital definition (immediate window tends to be faster )

  • Adding a table Excel file using ActiveX

    Hello

    I want to add a figure that has been produced using data from data acquisition to a specific cell in my existing excel file (reversing a graphical indicator in jpg/bmp,... and put it in the excel file). But I can't find the specific method to do so. I have changed one of the examples so I can add a few numbers to a specific cell in excellent file (VI attached). Someone knows how to do this?

    Also, in my test, I'll do this for 15-20 numbers (put 20 numbers in different places in the existing Excel file). I do this one by one? (opening of the application 20 times) or there is a way to just do all at the same time.

    Thank you.

    Now, it looks a lot better.

    I also added the part in which the image is from a waveform graph. For this you must use the Invoke node Export Image waveform graph. I've exported as bmp, save it in a file and then added in Excel. It is a solution. You can try different image format in order to find the one that works best for you. BMP is big enough.

    Another solution would be to use the graphical waveform / invoke node / export the Clipbord Image and spreadsheet use invoke node function / paste. In this way, that you don't have to write the image to the file. Although I find it more difficult to control the position where the image is pasted. In any case, you can give it a try and play with her a little.

    You can build your complete code Export To Excel using this example. Just add a loop (or code) between the opening of the workbook and close it.

    PS: I hope that the waveform graph node is the same also in LV2010. I can verify that Monday.

  • Help to quit Excel with activex (Save dialog box)

    Hello.

    I have following question.

    I have a VI that writes the data of measuring devices in an excel file. Later, I want to change the order of the entries using activex.

    Everything works fine, but when I leave the save-dialolg excel still appears. I searched this forum for possible solutions and experimenting a bit but I still have a box at the end.

    Well, now, at least, it is only those one and not several. The loop in my implementation for data manipulation could be the cause, but if she is, I don't know why or how to solve it. But maybe it's something different. Anyway, I can't find the reason.

    Some help would be really appreciated.

  • "-2146827284" error code when you try to open a workbook using ActiveX

  • Close Excel workbook ActiveX will not save

    I use ActiveX with Excel and try to save and close a workbook, but not to close the application.

    My question is twofold:

    First of all, I can't get a workbook to close when save is wired to her and defined as True. But once save set to False, the workbook closes very well (except it does not save of course). I thought that this could be linked to the following sentence of MSDN

    If there are these changes and the workbook appears in the other windows open, this argument is ignored.

    To check that this is not the case, I completely closed on Excel and tried again. Always the same question.

    So, my next step is to try a workaround as the use of the saveas method, then I can close the workbook without saving changes after (this constant i.e. false wired upward).

    Since the MSDN site: xlLocalSessionChanges = 2 the local user's changes are always accepted.

    But, when I "2 wire" to the variation of resolution of conflict for the saveas method, I always a dialog box asking the user if it is ok to replace the file to appear.

    Anyone encountered this before? I stuck links to MSDN, below.

    http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb241584 (v = office. 12) .aspx

    http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.workbook.close (v = vs. 80) .aspx

    http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.workbook.SaveAs (v = vs. 80) .aspx

         

    Workbook has become corrupted. Solution was to recreate.

  • The 'Excel.FormatCondition' activeX control class opening

    I am using activeX controls for excellent including the classes Excel._Application, Excel._Workbook and Excel._Worksheet. I used an open refnum of automation of opening of the application class, then I used nodes of property to join the workbook and worksheet classes. Now, I want to use the Excel.FormatCondition class. I couldn't go to class with nodes and its methods, so I use a refnum automation open as before, but I get "Error 3005 occurred at the opening of Automation".

    I found another post with advice to record the commands, but I read that the excel activeX controls need not to be recorded - they work under windows.

    If I do not need to record something, I don't ' know not what. I'm using LabVIEW 8.6 and Office 2007.

    Andrew

    This is not true. As I mentioned in another threadas an example, you get out of the status of the format of the collection after you have added using the Item method. In Excel 2003, which returns a FormatCondition type directly. In Excel 2007, it returns a variant. Therefore, you can use the variant data between the FormatConditions.Item () method and the FormatCondition.Interior property, as I showed in response No. 14, to convert the variant to a FormatCondition type.

  • How to open GSView using ActiveX

    Hello

    I've implemented a vi with microsoft excel and activeX auto print.

    Can you teach me or guide me on how to open GsView files with the extension ".ps"?

    I want to do the same thing as the Print_File.vi.

    I want to open the file in GsView and auto print to the printer.

    Can someone help me please.

    Thank you

    I want to use this for Labview 7.0

    Thank you

    AFAIK there are no ActiveX GSView interface. GSVIew is not a Windows-specific product. Anyone out there can have created an ActiveX interface for it, but you'd have to Google for it.

    You are aware, I suppose, GSView is simply a graphical interface for GhostScript, right? Ghostscript is command line, then you can simply use system Exec to call GhostScript.

  • The statement to Excel using LabView on Linux?

    Anyone has a suggestion how to declare the LabView test data to Excel, using LabView on Linux?

    I've only used LabView on Windows before, so it's new to me.

    BR labviewerik

    Do not use LabVIEW for linux.

    The first thought is to use a CSV format. This can be opened by Excel and is easily stored on a network or via e-mail as an attachment.

    The second option would be to store results in a database. Excel has the ability to bind to data bases to extract data.
