I am inserting data from excel document to datagridview control in vb.net the following code works fine, only if the sheet in the excel is named Sheet1.
Dim conn As OleDbConnection
Dim dtr As OleDbDataReader
Dim dta As OleDbDataAdapter
Dim cmd As OleDbCommand
Dim dts As DataSet
Dim excel As String
Dim OpenFileDialog As New OpenFileDialog
OpenFileDialog.InitialDirectory = My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.MyDocuments
OpenFileDialog.Filter = "All Files (*.*)|*.*|Excel files (*.xlsx)|*.xlsx|CSV Files (*.csv)|*.csv|XLS Files (*.xls)|*xls"
If (OpenFileDialog.ShowDialog(Me) = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK) Then
Dim fi As New FileInfo(OpenFileDialog.FileName)
Dim FileName As String = OpenFileDialog.FileName
excel = fi.FullName
conn = New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + excel + ";Extended Properties=Excel 12.0;")
dta = New OleDbDataAdapter("Select * From [Sheet1$]", conn)
dts = New DataSet
dta.Fill(dts, "[Sheet1$]")
DataGridView1.DataSource = dts
DataGridView1.DataMember = "[Sheet1$]"
conn.Close()
The problem now is the sheet might have a different name and i want to get the first sheet in the excel document despite what name it is. Any help regarding this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
