Getting Rowcount from Excel Database
Keywords: rowcount
Question:
I'm writing a WinBatch script to search for an item in several EXCEL speadsheets without having to open them. How can I know their size ( # of columns and Rows), and do do we have any way to search for a value besides:cellval = DDERequest (channel2, "R3C2") Check the value and then change the cell number to get an another one.Thank for any suggestion.
Answer:
If the spreadsheets have databases as assigned 'ranges', you can use OLE and read the Rows in as a RecordSet, then use RowCount(), and perform a simple loop to get the Column Names.
;illustrates getting rowcount from Excel Database
cConn = "Provider=MicroSoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=e:\wbdemo\test.xls; Extended Properties=Excel 5.0;"
DB = ObjectOpen("ADODB.Connection")
DB.Open(cConn)
RS = DB.Execute("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM RAO AS CNT")
RS.MoveFirst() ;may not even be necessary
fld = RS.Fields(0)
v = fld.Value
message("Number of Rows, Excluding Headings",v-1)
DB.Close()
ObjectClose(DB)
exit
