Hi Pple,

Here I come again to report another bug(I think)... :"> Please kindly ignore me if this has already been reported or it is intended to be implemented this way.

For the function, _ExcelSheetUsedRangeGet(), I notice that the last element of the return array is always zero. Example, when I do a _ArrayDisplay() I'll get the following:

[0] = D20461

[1] = R20461C4

[3] = 4

[4] = 0

Orginal Code:

;===============================================================================
;
; Description:      Return the last cell of the used range in the specified worksheet.
; Syntax:           $array = _ExcelSheetUsedRangeGet($oExcel, $vSheet)
; Parameter(s):     $oExcel - An Excel object opened by a preceding call to _ExcelBookOpen() or _ExcelBookNew()
;                   $vSheet - The sheet name or number to be checked.
; Requirement(s):   None
; Return Value(s):  On Success - Returns an array of used range values:
;                       $array[0] - The last cell used, in A1 format (if 0 is returned, worksheet is blank)
;                       $array[1] - The last cell used, in R1C1 format
;                       $array[2] - The last column used, as an integer
;                       $array[3] - The last row used, as an integer
;                   On Failure - Returns 0 (as non-array numeric value) and sets @error on errors:
;                       @error=1 - Specified object does not exist
;                       @error=2 - Invalid sheet number
;                       @error=3 - Invalid sheet name
; Author(s):        DaLiMan, SEO <locodarwin at yahoo dot com>
; Note(s):          Upon return, $array[0] will equal numeric value 0 if the worksheet is blank

Actually, Stanley, the uncorrected code is works fine if you don't use Beta. However, your change works fine for both Beta and non-Beta, as far as I can tell, so we'll go with that. Thanks a ton!

I left this topic for awhile, and now i'm back, and i just want to say it looks awesome. Rockin UDF!

Posted (edited)

Can you look at this post - I guess I should have posted here to start with :) . Should I just post the code here?

Update - when I use the $formula2 it puts some quotes into the value so =SUM(B1:B16) becomes =SUM('B1:B16') and the formula does not work

but I have been able to get my $formula to work but by calling _ExcelWriteCell() instead of _ExcelWriteFormula() -

EDIT 11:04 - the quotes for $formula2 might not be right - memory is fading and I am not at work to check - no I have no copy of office at home, installed anyway

Updated original post. v1.32 attached.

Fix: _ExcelSheetUsedRangeGet() used a regular expression that no longer worked as intended due to changes in AutoIt. Thanks to Stanley Lim for the find & fix.

Hello,

I am using your UDF to put together a complex report and I came across a small typo in the UDF.

Line 2166 for the Merge Cells has "$fWrapText - Perform word wrap on the cells in the range (True or False) (default=False)" I am assuming the function heading was copied from somewhere else and didn't get updated.

If I find anything else, I'll update this post.

I needed to put Borders into my report because Management likes things to look fancy. I noticed that the borders were remed out of the UDF so I wrote my own function for it that you can include in the UDF if you would like.

I just found out the hard way that the _ExcelCreateBorders() function I posted will only work with Office 2007.

It appears that the .TintandShade is not supported.

Also, the InsideHorizontal seems to be failing.

I am trying to figure it out and will update when I do.

Wow, my last post was wiped out. Twice!

Thanks, Mike, for the submission. I'll include it in the upcoming version of the library once you get the 2007 parts cleared out.

In the meantime, I'm looking into a different way of coding border functionality. Essentially what I'm looking to do is allow the user to select which border sides (top, left, bottom, etc.) to apply bordering properties to in a range while leaving the other border sides in said range untouched. This way we can apply different properties to different parts of the range. For example, if I want the top border of a cell to be thick, green, and dotted, I could call the function to do that, and then call the function later to apply different properties to other sides.

My previous algorithm wouldn't allow for that. That, and the fact that it wasn't functioning properly anyway, is why I commented it out.

So my idea will be to have a function like so...

_ExcelCreateBorders($oExcel, $iBorders, $iBorderWeight, $iBorderStyle, $iBorderColor, $sRangeOrRowStart, $iColStart = 1, $iRowEnd = 1, $iColEnd = 1)

...where $iBorder is a binary-OR type of side selection. So if...

1 = Top

2 = Bottom

4 = Left

8 = Right

16 = Interior Vertical

...then to select both the top and bottom $iBorders would be 1 (top) + 2 (bottom) = 3. To select the top and right borders, $iBorders would be 1 (top) + 8 (right) = 9. The function would then apply color, border thickness, and border line style to those borders only and leave the other borders alone.

So that's the angle I'm looking for. It would improve bordering tenfold. Unfortunately I don't have much code for that yet, as I've been focusing on workbook sharing and printing, which are presenting their own problems. So if you'd like to work on that kind of function, I'd be more than happy to step aside on it, and of course your code would be included in the future library.

There should be a companion function to remove all bordering from a range, as well.

What says you?

Locodarwin,

Your Border idea sounds neat. I never looked into the colors. I don't think I will have time to re-write the Function as I always have a plate full of projects, but I look forward to seeing it when it's done.

I have updated my previous Function so it now supports older versions of Excel.

It seems that my Horizontal errors were being causes by a limitation of Excel COM. You can't apply more than a certian number of formats to a specific Cell without getting an error "80020009" I have not yet figured out how to duplicate my error outside my current project for further testing. I have since gotten around it by adding a border to the surrounding cells instead of directly to the heavily modified cell.

Congratulation for the great UDF. I like it.

But some functions (at least _ExcelSheetUsedRangeGet) only works for english Excel. Unfortunatly I've installed the german.

Your code in _ExcelSheetUsedRangeGet:

$sTemp = StringSplit($aSendBack[1], "C")
    $aSendBack[2] = Number($sTemp[2])
    $aSendBack[3] = Number(StringRegExpReplace($aSendBack[0], "[^0-9]", ""))
oÝ÷ Ù8b±Ú²}ý·
+·jëx®f§¶Ô-l¶¸§Z(ÉbæuK!z·

Just as an idea.

Yes, unfortunately I can't predict how my collection will behave on non-English installations. Sorry about that.

Since your code change takes into account both German and English installations, I'll use it. That might be the only function that requires such a change, since in other situations I merely look for numbers vs. letters and not a particular letter. Thanks for the submission!

Hello to everybody,

I am very new to AutoIt and I need it to automate Excel. Your UDF is a great help Locodarwin!

Like MRDev I also use a german Excel-Version and I need to "calculate" witht the given range of the "_ExcelFindInRange"-function. I have changed your UDF as adviced by MRDev and tried the following statement:

$zellen=_ExcelFindInRange($oExcel, $suche, 1)

For $nummer1=1 to $zellen[0][0]

;MsgBox(4096,"DeBug", "Anzahl = " & $nummer)

MsgBox(4096,"DeBug", "Namen = " & $zellen[$nummer1][0])

Next

The excel sheet has thousands of rows and 27 cells would match the search string of $suche

I always get only the first cell as result when I use R1C1. When I try the A1 I get all of them.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi Flandry

Have a look at the parameters default values of the function. Your call of _ExcelFindInRange will search with the following values:

$sRangeOrRowStart = 1

$iColStart = 1

$iRowEnd = 1

$iColEnd = 1

This is exactly 1 cell. :whistle:

Think I found a typo in your UDF. $sScreenTip is not found in the syntax. Also, can you give us an idea of what $sScreenTip is, and should look like?

; Description: Inserts a hyperlink into the active page.

; Syntax: _ExcelHyperlinkInsert($oExcel, $sLinkText, $sAddress, $sRangeOrRow, $iColumn = 1)

; Parameter(s): $oExcel - An Excel object opened by a preceding call to _ExcelBookOpen() or _ExcelBookNew()

; $sLinkText - The text to display the hyperlink as

; $sAddress - The URL to link to, as a string

; $sScreenTip - The popup screen tip, as a string

; $sRangeOrRow - The range in A1 format, or a row number for R1C1 format

; $iColumn - The specified column number for R1C1 format (default = 1)

It was just missing from the Syntax comment line. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

The $sScreenTip parameter displays a text tip when the user hovers the mouse over the hyperlink. It can be any reasonably-sized string.
