All,
Apologies if this is a very basic question and has been asked before, I predominately write in VBA / JAVA. However a project I am working on requires a C# script. Which carries out 3 simple steps:
Target a excel workbook which is already open. File path:
\\Csdatg04\\psproject\\Robot\\Peoplesoft To LV\\Master Files - Do not use\\Transactions into LV Template.xlsm
Populate cells A1,A2 & A3 with three variables already retrieved earlier in the automation.
Run a macro stored within the filepath mentioned above Macro name "ControlMacroACT"
The code I have developed is below, however in each stage identified above I am encountering errors (Probably basic errors).
Error 1: This line of code is to open a workbook I would like this to target an already active workbook.
Error 2: Worksheet not found
public void RunActualsMacro(string Filepath, string Period, String FiscalYear)
{
//~~> Define your Excel Objects
Excel.Application xlApp = new Excel.Application();
Excel.Workbook xlWorkBook;
//~~> Start Excel and open the workbook.
//Error 1
xlWorkBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Open("\\Csdatg04\\psproject\\Robot\\Peoplesoft To LV\\Master Files - Do not use\\Transactions into LV Template.xlsm");
// Populat Cells A1,A2,A3 with string variables
// Error 2 Worksheet not found
worksheet.Rows.Cells[1, 1] = Filepath;
worksheet.Rows.Cells[2, 1] = Period;
worksheet.Rows.Cells[3, 1] = FiscalYear;
//~~> Run the macro ControlMacroAct
xlApp.Run("ControlMacroACT");
//~~> Clean-up: Close the workbook
xlWorkBook.Close(false);
//~~> Quit the Excel Application
xlApp.Quit();
}
Any help would be much appreciated.
You need to use Marshal.GetActiveObject, and this code is roughly right, but cannot test right now.
public void RunActualsMacro(string Filepath, string Period, String FiscalYear)
{
//~~> Define your Excel Objects
Excel.Application xlApp = null;
Excel.Workbook xlWorkBook;
//~~> Start Excel and open the workbook.
//handle errors below
try {
xlApp = (Excel.Application) System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetActiveObject("Excel.Application");
} catch {
//perhaps exit - or throw??
}
xlWorkBook = xlApp.Workbooks["Transactions into LV Template.xlsm"];
// Populat Cells A1,A2,A3 with string variables
Excel.Worksheet ws = xlWorkBook.Worksheets["Sheet1"] //what the tab name of sheet
ws.Cells[1, 1] = Filepath;
ws.Cells[2, 1] = Period;
ws.Cells[3, 1] = FiscalYear;
//~~> Run the macro ControlMacroAct
xlApp.Run("ControlMacroACT");
//~~> Clean-up: Close the workbook
xlWorkBook.Close(false);
//~~> Quit the Excel Application
xlApp.Quit();
