hi guys,
can any one help i am looking for a possible solution in ASP, where user puts an excel file into a folder, the file name is obviously unknown to scripts and then i need to iterate through the worksheet and its coulombs without knowing the name of the file or its worksheet.
i know standard solution, establishes the connection to excel already on the server and you just need to give the file name and worksheet that you are concerned with, but what if you just specify the folder and what come may sort of thing ............... ....
another problem with those excel files.......is that they are not in standard format like name ranges specified on the worksheet...... ..so in some files the data start way down from fourth or fifth row having blank rows before the actual columbs start .........
is there any work around, where scripts handle this inconsistency.. .....
many thanks for you suggestions in advance

You can easily list all of the files in a folder using the scripting.files ystemobject, and use those names to decide which files to open. Look it up and if it gives you any trouble, let me know.
deciding which worksheet to open or which line to start on might be harder, but I haven't tried working with excel files that much, so I'm not even sure where I would start.

Hi all
I need to add data from two Excel sheets (both on the same workbook)
to an existing table in my SQL DB.
The problem is that each sheet holds different fields for the same
record, though the records are sorted by row numbers.
(I had to split the fields to different sheets because Excel has a
limit of 256 fields in each sheet)
My sheets are quite large (~55,000 rows and 200 columns each) and I'll

hello all you gurus. I am struggling with releasing com objects. I
have isolated the problem to the code below. Objects are released and
the process ends until I
use "int k = sheet.Count;" Then the process does not end. So I feel
confident the problem occurrs here. It appears another reference is
created that needs to be closed. Can anyone tell me how to do
this? :)

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
