How To Close Excel
Hi there,I wrote an application that reads data from an excelsheet (importfilter), using the following code to open the file: Dim objExcelApp as new Excel.Application Dim objExcelBook as Excel.Workbook Call objExcelApp.Workbooks.Open(strFileName) set objExcelBook = objExcelApp.ActiveWorkbookWhen the application is terminated, I want to close the excel-instance too, but it just doesn't work. Even if I use Unload objExcelApp Unload objExcelBookthere is still the excel-task in the task mangager.How can I close it totally?Thanks in advance,Daniel

Close All Excel Applications Before Start New Excel Application
Ciao Gurus,
I created an excel 2003 application which takes time to be opened.
I notice that it is more fast (50-60%) if no other excel applications are opened, so here the question: is it possible to close all excel application before start my excel application?
Of course not manually
Best Regards

Can't Close Excel Instance After Excel Automation
I hope I'm posting this in the right forum, I've never really used on of these forums before. I have the following code that I am using to move date from MS Access to MS Excel. The code itself work flawlessly except the after closing there is still an instance of Excel hanging around in my task manager. I believe the problem is related to the fact that the row I activated to use the .freezePanes is still activated when I close the application. If I remove the adding of the image and the freezePane there is no Excel instances left. If I put them back in then it hangs there. I've scoured the net for about a week looking for my error and I've yet to find it. Any suggestions would be appriciation.

Excel, To Close Or Not To Close
Hello All,
I have a VB6 app that can open different Excel sheets. At some point after the user selects these sheets, Excel starts acting strange. Meaning Excel opens, but only the toolbar can be seen.
I will post my code being I know everyone will think early binding problems, but i can't find anything out of whack.
Also, I didn't use .QUIT being i want the user to be able to print or modify the sheet if needed. At this point, if the user opens some other sheet on there pc, Excel doesn't cooperate. I guess I would like to get rid of EXCEL.EXE in the task mgr once the user closes Excel, but it seems to hold the lock until my VB app is closed.
Any ideas????

Excel Will Not Close With VB6
I have a VB6 program that populates comboboxes from data with an Excel worksheet. But when I exit the VB program, in the Task Manager Excel is still running, sometimes many times. I have the Excel sheet opening at Load() and I want to have Excel exit when I unload the program. I need the Excel sheet to be opened until the program is ended. Everything works how it should except for the Excel sheet not closing. So how do I fix this?
Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim MyXLApp As New Excel.Application 'declare and start a new excel application
'Open an Excel workbook
MyXLApp.Workbooks.Open FileName:="M:material_strength_list_1.xls"
For y = 2 To 4 Step 1
cmb_mat.AddItem Sheets("Main").Cells(y, 1)
Next y
For v = 2 To 6 Step 1
cmb_temp.AddItem Sheets("Main").Cells(v, 2)
Next v
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
Dim ans As Integer
Dim MyXLApp As New Excel.Application
ans = MsgBox("Do you really want to exit?", vbYesNo, "Exit Confirmation")
If ans = vbYes Then
MyXLApp.Quit

End
End If

Close Excel Again
When I create an excel object, make my stuff, and close it remains in the taskbar.
This is to generate a report, so If I try to open it again it works fine, but just with simple values( xls.cells(1,1)=3), but I can´t use formulas or try to fit columns cause I get the error
"Object Variable or With block not set"
I've read posts asking this and of course the replies but I can't make it work
Im doing this
Dim xla As excel.Application
Dim xlb As excel.Workbook
Dim xls As excel.Worksheet
Set xla = CreateObject("Excel.application")
xla = True
Set xlb = xlb.Workbooks.Add
Set xls = xlb.Worksheets(1)
xla.Workbooks(1).Close SaveChanges:=true
Set xls = Nothing
Set xlb = Nothing
xla.Quit
Set xla = Nothing
I don't know if this can help but i have seen this:
after this lines
Set xla = CreateObject("Excel.application")
in the taskbar appears "Excel"
xla = True
then "Microsoft Excel"
Set xlb = xlb.Workbooks.Add
then "Microsoft Excel - Workbook1"
and when closing..
xla.Workbooks(1).Close SaveChanges:=true
again "Micrsoft Excel"
Set xls = Nothing
Set xlb = Nothing
the same "Microsoft Excel"
xla.Quit
in the taskbar just appears "Excel"
Set xla = Nothing
and this one don't destroy the object
and remains in the taskbar
Any ideas what to do???
I don't know what to do now.

Excel Objects Won't Close
I have an application where I am opening an excel file (template), writing values to certain cells, then printing the report in a loop inside of a class module. At the beginning of the loop I am instantiating an excel application object, workbook object(from existing workbook), and worksheet object(active worksheet property of workbook object) in that order. After printing the report, I set the worksheet object to NOTHING, Close the workbook object (save changes=true), set the workbook object = NOTHING, then finally set the application object = NOTHING. The problem is that after several loops, I notice that active excel tasks are accumalating in the task manager up to 5 or 6, subsequently causing memory problems. when I "end task" I get the "Program not responding...." message. What am I doing wrong????

I've successfully opened excel, created a chart and saved it however I am unsure which methods to call to
close it.
Here's the initialisation code:
Code:
Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
Set xlApp = New Excel.Application
Dim xlWkb As Excel.Workbook
Set xlWkb = xlApp.Workbooks.Add
Dim xlSht As Excel.Worksheet
Set xlSht = xlWkb.Worksheets(1)
Dim xlChart As Excel.Chart
and here's the process close methods im using at the moment.
Code:
Call xlWkb.Close
Call xlApp.Quit
Set xlApp = Nothing
so, basically, what I'm wondering is should I be calling any other methods too.
After exiting my VB app I stills ee one EXCEL.EXE process in my task manager so I know I'm not closing it
down fully,
Any help much appreciated!
Please Help With This Excel Before Close Event
Hi All,
I have a big problem in my code I have an function that checks my Excel file back into a DB the problem is that the function is triggered though a button on my VB app, How can I call that function when I have closed the Excel file?
The program is attached you might have to change the this file path to where you Excel.exe is
Code:
Shell "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11EXCEL.exe " & DiskFile, vbNormalFocus
To view a file click on a name in the list then double click an item in the listview when you close the file a button will appear asking to save the document when you click the button triggers the check back in function.
Thanks

Close Excel Automatically
Guys,
Real simple, yet stupid question, is there a way through VBA to have Excel close itself? Please let me know. I have tried
Code:
Excel.Application.Quit
at the end of my sub and it doesn't close. Thanks for all your help!
Close Excel NOT Save
I've got a VB script problem...
I'm opening one excel sheet, activating an activeX component on that sheet which loads a string file into cells 1,1.
Then a 2nd sheet opens based on the string in 1,1 (the string contains the filename)
My problem is that when I'm shutting down the apps, the one containing the changes keeps prompting me if I want to save changes.
"object".Quit
(I get prompted here to save changes)
Set "object" = Nothing
...
How can I force the cancel or no answer into my script to prevent the pop up box from appearing??
My excel work is all behind the scenes, so this is no good.
Excel Object Will Not Close
I have my program call Excel to open take some data create a graph then save the file and close Excel. The problem is Excel will not close. The first time you use the procedure it works fine, but the next time it will error because excel is still running and if you look in the taskbar an instance of excel.exe is running.
Code:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim MyXlApp As Object
Dim MyXlWB As Object
Set MyXlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set MyXlWB = MyXlApp.Workbooks.Open(FileName:="c: est.xls")
MyXlApp.Visible = False
Application.Run ("test.xls!greg")
MyXlWB.Close
Set MyXlWB = Nothing
MyXlApp.Quit
Set MyXlApp = Nothing
end sub
Why wouldn't this work?
Once I exit the project Excel will finally close.
Thanks

Excel Object Won't Close...
Hi y'all (as we say here in the UK)
Ok - I'm writing data to an excel workbook from a VB6 project, and when a large amount of data is written, the excel instance won't go away (ctrl+alt+delete shows it sitting at the bottom of the list - have to end-task it manually to get other things to happen). Can I use a bit of code to check if it's still there and end-task it if necessary?
Here's the relevant bit of code I'm using (which works fine for a smaller amount of data):
Code:
'Create new workbook, rename sheet
Set xlOut = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
With xlOut
.Application.DisplayAlerts = False
.Application.Workbooks.Add
.Range("A1").Select
'Populate Cells
CurrentRow = 0
For intLoop = 0 To RecCount
frmPrinting.lblPrinting.Caption = "Creating workbook: " & intLoop & "/" & RecCount: DoEvents
For intSubLoop = 0 To 34
If intSubLoop = 17 Or (ImpExp = "IMP" And intSubLoop = 20) Or (ImpExp = "EXP" And intSubLoop = 19) Then
.Cells(intLoop + 1, intSubLoop + 1).Formula = Format(Data(intLoop, intSubLoop), "#####")
.Cells(intLoop + 1, intSubLoop + 1).NumberFormat = "dd/mm/yy"
Else
.Cells(intLoop + 1, intSubLoop + 1).Formula = Data(intLoop, intSubLoop)
End If
Next intSubLoop
Next intLoop
.Cells.Select
.Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit
.Range("A1").Select
'Save
SaveName = "C:Data~" & Format(Now(), "hhmmss") & Format(Now(), "ddmm") & ".xls"
.Workbooks(1).SaveAs SaveName
.Quit
End With
Set xlOut = Nothing

Excel Instance Does Not Close...
Greetings!
I have am trying read an Excel file using Excel Object Library 9.0 (Excel 2000).
Next, an HTML page is parsed and a new HTML page is created based on the data in the Excel file.
Below is the code snippet.
----------------------------------------
Code:Option Explicit
Dim strHTML As String
Dim objXL As New Excel.Application
Dim objWS As Excel.Worksheet
Dim objWS1 As Excel.Worksheet
Dim objWS2 As Excel.Worksheet
Private Sub cmdProcess_Click()
...
...
...
objXL.Workbooks.Open Trim(txtPickList.Text), , True
Set objWS = objXL.Worksheets(1)
Set objWS1 = objXL.Worksheets.Add
...
...
...
ReorderData
objXL.Workbooks(1).Close 0
Set objWS = Nothing
Set objWS1 = Nothing
objXL.Quit
Set objXL = Nothing
...
...
...
End Sub
Private Sub ReorderData()
...
...
...
For lRows1 = 1 To objWS1.UsedRange.End(xlDown).Row
For Each objTable In objElements
If InStr(objTable.innerText, "ORDER # " & objWS1.cells(lRows1, 1).Value) > 0 Or bFetch = True Then
If iCount = 1 Then StatusMessage " Reordering... ORDER# " & objWS1.cells(lRows1, 1).Value
strHTML = strHTML & objTable.outerHTML & " <br>"
If iCount = 3 Then strHTML = strHTML & "<p align=center>----------</p>"
iCount = iCount Mod 3 + 1
bFetch = IIf(iCount = 1, False, True)
End If
Next
Next lRows1
...
...
...
End Sub
Private Sub StatusMessage(strStatus As String)
txtStatus.Text = txtStatus.Text & strStatus & vbCrLf
txtStatus.SelStart = Len(txtStatus.Text)
txtStatus.Refresh
End Sub
----------------------------------------
Now, the problem that I am facing is that the Excel instance never closes even after the code in the "cmdProcess_Click" is processed. However when the code in "ReorderData" is commented it works fine.
Another point is that, this problem arises only on Win98 and WinME. but it works fine under Win2000.
Can anyone pls help me out with this.
Thx a lot.
Have a nice day.
Warm Regards,

How To Close An Excel Workbook?
After I copy a large section of a worksheet and paste it in a different workbook, how do I close the source workbook without it asking me if I want to save the Clipboard that contains data?
I've already pasted the data and I just want to close the workbook. I haven't modified anything. I'm opening up many workbooks in a loop, 80+, I'm running out of memory. I need to close these as I get through with them.
I'm using VB and not VBA.
Thanks in advance.

Buenas tardes!
Tengo un problema que me está llevando días y no
consigo corregirlo. Utilizo un libro excel que tiene tal
tamaño (700 KB) que ya me da error al intentar cerrar
mediante un programa en VB o desde un navegador mediante
lenguage asp.
En cambio si lo debbugo, el error desaparece. Yo creo que
es por el tamaño y quiero alargar algún parametro que
establezca el tiempo de espera. En si no es que de ningún
mensaje de error, sino que no termina la operación y se
queda abierta la aplicación en el servidor.
Lo cierro de la siguiente manera. Alguien me podría ayudar?
¿?
objExcel.ActiveWorkbook.Close (False)
objExcel.Quit
Set objExcel = Nothing
Muchas gracias.

I just wanna open the existing file and successfully close that file after use..
Anyone can help me?
