I made this function that I include in this post hereunder to copy particular cells from New Inv Entry sheet to Invoices sheet when I click on Save button that I made in New Inv Entry. I already entered data in Invoices sheet manually but the problem is when I try to enter a new entry via New Inv Entry the function pastes only one cell in Invoices from New Inv Entry and didn't pastes in last row, just replace other entry.
I appreciate if someone help me to configure the problem.
Thank you
function copy() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var s1 = ss.getSheetByName('New Inv Entry');
var Properties = PropertiesService.getScriptProperties();
var lastrow = Properties.getProperty('lastrow');
if(lastrow==null) lastrow=1;
else lastrow = parseInt(lastrow);
Properties.setProperty('lastrow',(lastrow+1));
var v = s1.getRange('C3:G11').getValue();
ss.getSheetByName('Invoices').getRange('A:E' + lastrow).setValue(v);
};
Try instead of
Properties.setProperty('lastrow',(lastrow+1));
just simply
lastrow = lastrow+1;
since you don't really want to change the property as stored in the PropertiesService, but your local variable called lastrow.
I'd assume getValue() and setValue() only works for single cells. You should use copyTo instead:
s1.getRange('C3:G11').copyTo(ss.getSheetByName('Invoices').getRange('A' + lastrow))
(Note that :E part is not needed for the destination range, because copyTo knows anyway the size of the range being copied.)
Sbnc.eu thank you for your reply. You gave me lots of help with your answer, it saves all the cells. I wish that particular cells only save in Invoices. I tried to amend this one hereunder but without success.
s1.getRange('C3', 'C5', 'C7', 'C9', 'C11:G11').copyTo(ss.getSheetByName('Invoices').getRange('A' + lastrow))
Apart from that I already have about 2.5k entries already inserted in Invoices sheet but when I hit the save button to execute that function with your amendments you gave, the new entry replace an entry that already inserted.

I'm using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel to write an Excel file. The code below is not working:
var excel = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application();
var workbook = excel.Workbooks.Add(Type.Missing);
var worksheet = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet)workbook.ActiveSheet;
worksheet.Name = "sheet1";
worksheet.Cells[1,1] = "top left";
worksheet.Cells[1,2] = "top right";
worksheet.Cells[2,1] = "bottom left";
worksheet.Cells[2,2] = "bottom right";
workbook.SaveAs("temp.xlsx");
workbook.Close();
excel.Quit();
It produces an Excel file but it is empty. I'm expecting to see the text "top left", "top right",... in the first 2 by 2 cells. But I see nothing.
Why is it not writing content to my worksheet?
You can find my code at github: https://github.com/gibran-shah/Image2Excel
Perhaps this link might help you: http://csharp.net-informations.com/excel/csharp-create-excel.htm
According to the link above, try using:
var worksheet = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet)workbook.get_Item(1);
To troubleshoot further, I would choose some other name for the sheet, and check that the name is actually being set by opening the workbook and observing the name in the sheet's tab. This would ensure you are indeed adding data to the sheet that you think you are.
I have been a fervent reader of StackOverflow over the last few years, and I was able to resolve pretty much everything in VBA Excel with a search and some adapting. I never felt the need to post any questions before, so I do apologize if this somehow duplicates something else, or there is an answer to this already and I couldn't find it.
Now I`m considering Excel-JS in order to create an AddIn (or more), but have to say that Javascript is not exactly my bread and butter. Over the time of using VBA, I find that one of the most simple and common needs is to get the last row in a sheet or given range, and maybe less often the last column.
I've managed to put some code together in Javascript to get similar functionality, and as it is... it works. There are 2 reasons I`m posting this
Looking to improve the code, and my knowledge
Maybe someone else can make use of the code meanwhile
So... in order to get my lastrow/lastcolumn, I use global variables:
var globalLastRow = 0; //Get the last row in used range
var globalLastCol = 0; //Get the last column in used range
Populate the global variables with the function to return lastrow/lastcolumn:
function lastRC(wsName) {
return Excel.run(function (context) {
var wsTarget = context.workbook.worksheets.getItem(wsName);
//Get last row/column from used range
var uRange = wsTarget.getUsedRange();
uRange.load(['rowCount', 'columnCount']);
return context.sync()
.then(function () {
globalLastRow = uRange.rowCount;
globalLastCol = uRange.columnCount;
});
});
}
And lastly get the value where I need them in other functions:
var lRow = 0; var lCol = 0;
await lastRC("randomSheetName");
lRow = globalLastRow; lCol = globalLastCol;
I`m mainly interested if I can return the values directly from the function lastRC (and how...), rather than go around with this solution.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated (ideally if they don't come with stones attached).
EDIT:
I've gave up on using an extra function for this as for now, given that it uses extra context.sync, and as I've read since this post, the less syncs, the better.
Also, the method above is only good, as long your usedrange starts in cell "A1" (or well, in the first row/column at least), otherwise a row/column count is not exactly helpful, when you need the index.
Luckily, there is another method to get the last row/column:
var uRowsIndex = ws.getCell(0, 0).getEntireColumn().getUsedRange().getLastCell().load(['rowIndex']);
var uColsIndex = ws.getCell(0, 0).getEntireRow().getUsedRange().getLastCell().load(['columnIndex']);
To break down one of this examples, you are:
starting at cell "A1" getCell(0, 0)
select the entire column "A:A" getEntireColumn()
select the usedrange in that column getUsedRange() (i.e.: "A1:A12")
select the last cell in the used range getLastCell() (i.e.: "A12")
load the row index load(['rowIndex']) (for "A12" rowIndex = 11)
If your data is constant, and you don't need to check lastrow at specific column (or last column at specific row), then the shorter version of the above is:
uIndex = ws.getUsedRange().getLastCell().load(['rowIndex', 'columnIndex']);
Lastly, keep in mind that usedrange will consider formatting as well, not just values, so if you have formatted rows under your data, expect the unexpected.
late edit - you can specify if you want your used range to be of values only (thanks Ethan):
getUsedRange(valuesOnly?: boolean): Excel.Range;
I have to say a big thank you to Michael Zlatkovsky who has put a lot of work, in a lot of documentation, which I`m far from finishing to read.
In my rdlc report have following columns
SlNo, Item, Uom, Qty, Rate, Amount
Here the Amount field is a formula (Rate*Qty)
The report is working fine, and when i export to excel also displaying the values are correctly.
But my problem is, after export to excel, when i change the Qty or Rate columns in excel file the Amount is not get changed automatically, because the formula is missing in the excel cell.
How can we include the formula in Amount column while export to excel from .rdlc?
I'm afraid that this required behaviour isn't really possible by just using the rdlc rendering.
In my search I stumbled upon this same link that QHarr posted: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/3ddf11bf-e10f-4a3e-bd6a-d666eacb5ce4/report-viewer-export-ms-report-data-to-excel-with-formula?forum=vsreportcontrols
I haven't tried the project that they're suggesting but this might possibly be your best solution if it works. Unfortunately I do not have the time to test it myself, so if you test this please share your results.
I thought of the following workaround that seems to work most of the times, but isn't really that reliable because the formula sometimes gets displayed as full-text instead of being calculated. But I guess this could be solved by editing the excel file just after being exported, and changing the cell properties of this column containing the formula or just triggering the calculate.
Using the built-in-field Globals!RenderFormat.Name you can determine the render mode, this way you can display the result correctly when the report is being rendered to something different than Excel. When you export to Excel, you could change the value of the cell to the actual formula.
To form the formula it's self you'll need to figure this out on your own, but the RowNumber(Scope as String) function can be of use here to determine the row number of your cells.
Here is a possible example for the expression value of your amount column
=IIF(Globals!RenderFormat.Name LIKE "EXCEL*", "=E" & Cstr(RowNumber("DataSet1")+2) & "*F" & Cstr(RowNumber("DataSet1")+2) ,Fields!Rate.Value * Fields!Qty.Value )
Now considering that this formula sometimes gets displayed as full-text, and you'll probably have to edit the file post-rendering. If it's too complicated to determine which row/column the cell is on, you could also do this post-rendering. But I believe that the above expression should be easy enough to use to get your desired result without having to do much after rendering.
Update: The following code could be used to force the calculation of the formula (post rendering)
var fpath = #"C:\MyReport.xlsx";
using (var fs = File.Create(fpath))
{
var lr = new LocalReport();
//Initializing your reporter
lr.ReportEmbeddedResource = "MyReport.rdlc";
//Rendering to excel
var fbytes = lr.Render("Excel");
fs.Write(fbytes, 0, fbytes.Length);
}
var xlApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application() { Visible = false };
var wb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(fpath);
var ws = wb.Worksheets[1];
var range = ws.UsedRange;
foreach (var cell in range.Cells)
{
var cellv = cell.Text as string;
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(cellv) && cellv.StartsWith("="))
{
cell.Formula = cellv;
}
}
wb.Save();
wb.Close(0);
xlApp.Quit();
After speaking to Google Enterprise Support they suggested I create a post on Stackoverflow.
I have a Google Doc sheet with a list of stores (sheet A) and I'm trying to reference another sheet (sheet B) to VOID specific stores.
What I'm going to accomplish is if a store name on the void sheet is entered into sheet A it will automatically convert the store name to VOID.
Google support believes an IF statement would be the beginning to the solution, they weren't able to help beyond this.
For anyone's time that comes up with a solution, I'd be happy to buy you a couple Starbucks coffees. Your support means a lot.
make it simple using Google Scripts. (Tutorial)
To edit scripts do: Tools -> Script Editor
and in the current add this function
EDIT:
Well, you need to make a trigger. In this case will be when the current sheet is edited
Here is the javascript
function onEdit(event) {
// get actual spreadsheet
var actual = event.source.getActiveSheet();
// Returns the active cell
var cellSheet1 = actual.getActiveCell();
// get actual range
var range = event.source.getActiveRange();
// get active spreadsheet
var activeSpreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
// get sheets
var sheet_two = activeSpreadsheet.getSheetByName("Sheet2");
range.copyValuesToRange(sheet_two, range.getColumn(), range.getColumn(), range.getRow(), range.getRow());
// get cell from sheet2
var cell = sheet_two.getRange(range.getValue());
cell.setValue(cellSheet1.getValue());
// display log
Logger.log(cellSheet1.getValue());
}
if you want to test it you can check my spreadsheet, there you can check that all data thats is inserted in sheet1 will be copied to sheet2
While I'm trying to open excel file a message box is prompting like "We found a problem with some content in file name. Do you want us to try to recover as much as we can? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes.". What actually done is i have a excel template designed and copying the file to another file and created temp file I'm inserting data to temp file using OPEN XML and data is getting from the database.
i have tried the solutions provided in the net but those fixes are not resolving my issue.My excel is 2010
Anyone solution provided is much appreciated.
I had this problem. It was caused by the way I was storing numbers and strings in cells.
Numbers can be stored simply using cell.CellValue = new CellValue("5"), but for non-numeric text, you need to insert the string in the SharedStringTable element and get the index of that string. Then change the data type of the cell to SharedString, and set the value of the cell to the index of the string in the SharedStringTable.
// Here is the text I want to add.
string text = "Non-numeric text.";
// Find the SharedStringTable element and append my text to it.
var sharedStringTable = document.WorkbookPart.GetPartsOfType<SharedStringTablePart>().First().SharedStringTable;
var item = sharedStringTable.AppendChild(new SharedStringItem(new Text(text)));
// Set the data type of the cell to SharedString.
cell.DataType = new EnumValue<CellValues>(CellValues.SharedString);
// Set the value of the cell to the index of the SharedStringItem.
cell.CellValue = new CellValue(item.ElementsBefore().Count().ToString());
This is explained in the documentation here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/cc861607.aspx
Another few cases that can cause this type of error:
Your sheet name is longer than 31 characters
You have invalid characters in sheet name
You have cells with values longer than 32k
The issue is due to using
package.Save();
and
package.GetAsByteArray();
at the same time
when we call
package.GetAsByteArray();
it will do following operations
this.Workbook.Save();
this._package.Close();
this._package.Save(this._stream);
Hence, removing
package.Save();
will solve this problem "We found a problem with some content in file name. Do you want us to try to recover as much as we can? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes."
Another possible cause could be exceeded maximum number of cell styles.
You can define:
up to 4000 styles in a .xls workbook
up to 64000 styles in a .xlsx workbook
In this case you should re-use the same cell style for multiple cells, instead of creating a new cell style for every cell.
I added the right cellReference and fixed this issue for me:
string alpha = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVQXYZ";
for (int colInx = 0; colInx < reader.FieldCount; colInx++)
{
AppendTextCell(alpha[colInx] + "1", reader.GetName(colInx), headerRow);
}
private static void AppendTextCell(string cellReference, string cellStringValue, Row excelRow)
{
// Add a new Excel Cell to our Row
Cell cell = new Cell() { CellReference = cellReference, DataType = new EnumValue<CellValues>(CellValues.String) };
CellValue cellValue = new CellValue();
cellValue.Text = cellStringValue.ToString();
cell.Append(cellValue);
excelRow.Append(cell);
}
Same warning but the problem with me was that I was using a client input (name of wave) as sheet name for the file and when date was presented within the name, the character '/' used as date part separator was causing the issue.
I think Microsoft need to provide a better error log to save people time investigate such minor issues. Hope my answer will save someone else's time.
The issue was due to storing a string in the cell directly using cell.CellValue = new CellValue("Text"). It is possible to store numbers like this but not string. For string, define data type as string before assigning the text using Cell.DataType = CellValues.String;
