Count rows in excel vb

problem:

we want to count number of rows in excel with VB

solution:

I create the sub function to count the number of rows depend on where do you want to start!

Sub countRows()
RowCount = 0
RowNext = 22  ( please change the starting row according to your need)
Do While Cells(RowNext, 3).Value <> 0 ( the “3″ also need to be changed)
RowCount = RowCount + 1
RowNext = RowNext + 1
Loop
‘MsgBox RowCount
End Sub

File in use Vb

just found nice code in internet, and i use it in one of my project. works great!
it will return the last user that open the file

Function LastUser(strPath As String) As String

‘// Code by Helen from http://www.xtremevbtalk.com/index.php?s=

‘// This routine gets the Username of the File In Use

‘// Credit goes to Helen for code & Mike for the idea

‘// Amendment 25th June 2004

‘// : Name changes will show old setting

‘// : you need to get the Len of the Name store just before

‘// : the double Padded nullstrings

Dim text As String

Dim strFlag1 As String, strflag2 As String

Dim i As Integer, j As Integer

Dim hdlFile As Long

Dim lNameLen As Byte

strFlag1 = Chr(0) & Chr(0)

strflag2 = Chr(32) & Chr(32)

hdlFile = FreeFile

Open strPath For Binary As #hdlFile

text = Space(LOF(hdlFile))

Get 1, , text

Close #hdlFile

j = InStr(1, text, strflag2)

i = InStrRev(text, strFlag1, j) + Len(strFlag1)

lNameLen = Asc(Mid(text, i – 3, 1))

LastUser = Mid(text, i, lNameLen)

End Function

uploading the latest file to ftp with batch command

uploading the latest file to ftp, all you need 2 .bat files

fileup.bat

@echo off

echo user USERNAME> ftpcmd.dat

echo PASSWORD>> ftpcmd.dat

echo bin>> ftpcmd.dat

echo cd REMOTEPATH >> ftpcmd.dat

echo put %1>> ftpcmd.dat

echo quit>> ftpcmd.dat

ftp -n -s:ftpcmd.dat FTPADDRESS

del ftpcmd.dat

CALL.bat

@echo off

setlocal

:source directory

set srcDir=SOURCE DIRECTORY

set lastmod=

pushd “%srcDir%”

for /f “tokens=*” %%a in (‘dir /b /od 2^>NUL’) do set lastmod=%%a

if “%lastmod%”==”" echo Could not locate files.&goto :eof

:copy

call YOURPATH\fileup.bat “%lastmod%”

:delete

del “%lastmod%”

You call the CALL.bat, and the fileup.bat is for information

Transfer to FTP using batch command

there are 2 file you need

1. info of your ftp ( store it in .txt)
in my case i named it info.txt with these code written:

yourusername
yourpassword
bin
cd yourremotedirectory
bye

2. .bat file to connect to ftp and do what you want
in .bat file simply call the info.txt with this code:

ftp -s:log.txt YourFTPAddress

static site to CMS in 15 minutes? yes you can

You’re probably wondering how you could possibly integrate your entire website with a CMS in just 15 minutes. The truth is, due to the recent trend of “light” content management systems, it’s becoming easier than ever to get small to mid-sized static websites up and running in them.

What is a light CMS? For the sake of this tutorial, I’m defining it as an easy-to-use, unobtrusive content management system that you don’t have to install. The nice thing about these systems is that you don’t even have to host them yourself, which is why integration takes very little time.

There are actually a handful of these CMS products available, including CushyCMSPagelime, andSimpleCMS. Most of these systems work off the same basic principle — you add class=”something” to almost any HTML element, link your website up to their system, and you’re done. Best of all, every one of these systems offer a free version.

Although every light CMS product has its pros and cons, I chose to work with Surreal CMS because of their vast feature set and simple interface. You’ll see exactly what I mean in just a moment, but in the meantime, here is the general process of integrating with any light CMS:

  • Create your website
  • Link it up to the CMS
  • Enable webpages
  • Add one or more editors
  • Begin editing
