Include An Excel File In VB Application
Dear All,
We have a MS Excel with macro, that is doing some calculation and
generate an output. Now we want to do something similar in a VB 6
application. Is there a way to simply involve the specific Excel file in
VB, instead of implementing all the logic again? Is there any good
example?
TIA!

Packaging VB6 Application (what To Include?)
Hello Goup,
Some avice about packaging a VB application if I can.
I just used a third party dependancy program to find out what files were being used by my application.
File Name Size Version
c:WindowsSystemWinmm.dll= 64KB 4.03.1998
c:WindowsSystem abctl32.ocx = 205KB 6.00.8804
c:WindowsSystemRichtx32.ocx= 200KB 6.00.8804
c:WindowsSystemRiched32.dll= 171KB 4.00.993.4
c:WindowsSystemMsvbvm60.dll= 1,3566.00.9237
c:WindowsSystemmsdxm.ocx= 827KB 6.4.07.1121
c:WindowsSystemComdlg32.ocx= 138KB 6.00.8418
Which of the above files should I include in the package?
Also, I am using the Wise install system. They have an option to self register files. Is it this a good idea to use this feature? can it do any harm?
Thanks in advance.

How Do I Include An Offline Website In An Application?
I'm writing a program that opens an offline website that is stored on the user's hard disk.
Two questions:
a) how do i refer to the website within the code which is stored in the root folder. I have tried the following:
Dim WebRoot as String
WebRoot = "c:siteoffline"
but this does not work
b) Secondly, how do I ensure the website is included in the package, and installed to a given path on the user's computer when I finish the project?
I will be eternally grateful to anyone that can help.
Cheers

Excel File Without The Overhead Of Excel Application.
I need to write a routine that can create an excel file, even if the user doesnt have excel installed, hence I can't just reference excel in my application.
Is there a document outlining the excel format or something I can do to write an excel file without referencing the application. (I don't need to read the file, the file is sent off to someone else later.)

Include External Code In Excel Macro Script
Hi,
I have made a large Macro for Excel for some reporting application.

Can anyone pleas advise how I can do this in VB?
Thanks in advance.

I am very new to programming (obviously).
I am attempting to make a stand alone application that will open Excel and then cause Excel to open a file on the A drive. The first step I have figured out. I can get the program to launch Excel.

Could someone suggest some code that will help me change focus to excel, and then open a file

How Do You Include A File In A VB App??
I am writing a quiz program, where the question sets are stored in a seperate file each. The way i want to do it is so that, the questions could be stored in a text file which would look similar to this:
ArryQuestion(0, 0) = "1)Who is legally authorised to direct traffic?"
ArryQuestion(1, 0) = "2)Which is the main cause of rear-end collisions?"
And so on....
I just want a way so that i can include one of these text documents in my VB code. Similar to how you would do SSI (Server side includes). I don't remember how to do them something like "<!--#Include filename -->
Anyway if you know how they work then that is what i am trying to achieve. I would prefer just some general guidance on how you include these files, rather that somebody coming here and just telling me how to load the files. If anybody can help i appreciate it ever so much.
Kind regards,
Daniel

Include .dll In Exe File
My program requires the user to have a certain .dll (Scripting Runtime). Without it, they get a message regarding "missing dll". If I allow VB to make a setup file then it includes the necessary .dll's but the file is 4mb. The regular exe on my hard drive is only 100k. Is there a way to include dll's in my exe without making a huge setup.exe file?
How To Include A File In Vb6
Hi - I have a couple hundred vb6 activex dlls that all have the same constant declarations (named, defined subscripts for a particular array that is used in every one of these activex objects) or a module that includes those same declartions. There didn't start out with so many objects obviously, but they have grown to such a large number, that it has become a huge, time consuming pain to update every one of these every time I need to add a new subscript. Is there any way for me to just create one file containing these declarations, that I can just somehow include in each of my objects so that when I need to add a new subscript, all I need to do is just update the one file, which every object will then already be using?
Thanks!
Include A Txt File
Hi,
Is it possible to "include" a txt file, let's say test.txt in my project.
I'm now opening a file for reading with:
Open "C:projectprogram est.txt" for input as #1
But I want to be able to open the file for reading without specifying to whole path, but just specify the filename only.
I'm asking this because my project will be copied several times and every time in a different directory.
Open "C:project1program est.txt" for input as #1
Open "C:project2program est.txt" for input as #1
Open "C:project3program est.txt" for input as #1
When my project becomes very large with multiple files to be opened, I don't want to get errors and change the pathnames everytime for all the files.
Does anyone have I solution how I can handle this problem?
Thanx,
Maarten
What Not To Include In A Setup File
Does anyone know of a good list of problem dll's, ocx's etc that should be left out of a setup file?
In other words, files that should not be distributed with an app even if the deployment wizard adds them.
Example:
msvcrt.dll
shlwapi.dll

How Do I Include An Xls File In A Complied .exe ?
Hello,
I have written a small interface program to be used mainly as a validation tool. When filled, A command is run that checks all of the values and then writes them to the appropriate cells in an XL sheet. This XL sheet is formatted in a certain way, so I have an empty template that my program loads, then fills, then saves to disk. The way I have it set up now is, the XL file is in the folder with the .exe and if it isn't there, then the program will not complete because it has nothing to write to.
What I want to do is somehow incorporate the xls file into the .exe so that it does not need to reside anywhere else on the system, thus making the app totally independent. I'm not sure if this is possible or not. Any replys will be appreciated. Thanks.
Is There A Way To Include Pictures With An .exe File?
I have made a program that uses about 6 .jpg images in it. When I make the .exe file, does it include the images, or do I have to package them with the .exe for the program to work? I have used WinZip to make a self extracting file, but it then will extract to about 8 files, and I don't want that, just one .exe.
Thanks for your help...

How To Include A Txt File I The Exe Standalone When Compiling
hi guys
basically i have a vb project that im working on
it uses 2 external text files fo reading and writing data into
using the following commands
Code:
Open App.Path & "C:Hi.txt" For Input As #1
Line Input #1, strline
Hi1 = strline
Line Input #1, strline
Hi2 = strline
now when i compile the exe, the txt files dont get included in the txt file.
so say i run the exe on another computer which i want to do, i need to transfer the hi.txt document and make sure its placed in the c drive. however i dont want to transfer the hi.txt file. i want it to be embedded somehow, so no one can alter the hi.txt file later on and cheat etc..
ps: the hi.txt file contains 2 integers on line 1 and 2.
is there anyway i could somehow do something to embed it into the exe itself? ( i have already tried using modules and that didnt work)
