I need to make a report that export to excel, if got that. But the client wants to have the empty cells visible and not just a white background.
Inside the excel file you are exporting to go to the View Ribbon and tick the "Gridlines" in the show section. As far as I am concerned this is not an SSIS issue.
If this box is ticked, tell us how you exporting to Excel: is it an ODBC or Excel Destination?

I am trying to write a VBA macro that runs when opening a .docx document. I want it to force the display of the Navigation Pane and then force all of the headings (any level) to display in collapsed mode. I am trying to get the code for the Collapse command using the macro recorder.
All I have when I record the macro is:
ActiveWindow.DocumentMap = True
Right-clicking on a heading in the Navigation Pane and collapsing does not record a code line. Is there a VBA method for this event?
I "solved" this requirement for myself by means of an AutoHotKey script, which just sends the necessary mouse click and subsequent key strokes. Not beautiful, but it works most of the times.
Kind regards, Hauke
As of this writing in 2019, this is not possible through VBA. It's been asked for from Microsoft for a long time.
As originally suggested in this Microsoft forum post, the quickest way to collapse all of the headings in the Navigation pane is to right-click one of the headings and click Collapse All. Obviously this is not an automated/macro-based solution, but it's all we have until Microsoft exposes the task panes through the VBA object model.
Im trying to fix old MS Access file and i have to change popup menu, called by right click. Ive try to find some code in VBA, but i found there only the name of Macro which insert text from popup to form.
When I go to Macro menu i only found name of this macro, but cant change it.
What I should do to see where macro catch text data?
OP discovered the name of the table in the SQL sentence, but was not able to locate it. This was because it was hidden.
To hide/unhide elements in the Nav Pane, you can read:

We are using SQL Server Reporting Server 2014. On exporting report into excel we are getting error "Length cannot be 0. Missing parameter Length". After research, we found that excel doesn't allow more than 255 characters in footer. We would like to hide footer on excel import only.
Is there a global settings on report level which we can apply to hide page footer in excel import. From google search, it is clear that we can add global logic to each text box within page footer to hide it. However, we didn't find any global report level logic to hide page footer in excel import. Can someone help us and provide logic to hide page footer on report level?
Thanks.
=(Globals!RenderFormat.IsInteractive = "EXCEL")
Use =Globals!RenderFormat.Name = "EXCEL".
The .IsInteractive you used returns a boolean and tells whether the report is being run interactive. The .Name returns the format name.
I placed all my textboxes inside a rectangle and turn on/off the visibility based on the answer above. This is so you don't have to do it on each textbox.
I am new in excel vb.net programming. I am building a excel add-in like the image attached. I have searched but did not find a way to create its UI like the attached image. Please let me know if its possible or not, if yes, please provide me the links.
Thank you so much
You can easily add your own buttons, graphics to Excel or any Office product (Word/Power Point/Excel/ etc) by simply right clicking the ribbon area, then choosing [Customize the Ribbon].
In the next window, if you want your buttons to be displayed on their own Ribbon, create a new Ribbon.
Add as many buttons as you want, and you can separate them if you like.
You can read more about Customizing Ribbons in Office products here.
You can create a new tab on your ribbon as Ahmad has mentioned. You can then add buttons to your new ribbon tab and have them execute macros that you have written. For example, if while working in Excel, you have to highlight cells often with yellow, you can write a macro in your personal workbook then have a button in your new tab execute that macro.
I have an Excel sheet with Macros enabled. I want to display the Excel sheet inside a VB6/VB.NET form without excel menu header and perform excel activities inside the form.
Please note that I need to perform some macros actions when some cell is entered...
My Objective is to create a standalone VB6/VB.Net Form in which excel cells should be displayed for performing marco actions.
I have tried searching for any sample but no luck. It should be something like this...
Can any one hint me to achieve this ?
As far as I can tell - this is not possible. The reason being that you cannot subclass the excel window in VBA.
If you program outside of excel with VB.NET or VB6 it would be sort of possible, but would probably not work really good.
If you only want to display some data from a sheet and perform some small actions on them, you could probably read the Data via the EPPLUS Library, display them as a datatable (EPPLUS can convert between datatable and excel files), perform your actions and save them to the file afterwards. But this would only work in VB.net
I did a lot of research into this last year. There is no available package to do what you are asking that is provided by MS or for free, however, you could create a datagridview (DGV) in vb.net and load the data into the DGV via ADO.NET. The data loaded into the cells will mirror your spreadsheet. Then when you modify the cells in the DGV, have a label as you have shown to update the data changes back to the excel sheet.

As far as calling the macro, use the excel interop feature to call a macro:

There may be some third party support for what you are doing, but of course it costs money:
