Step 4: Run VBS code that applies auto-filter to Excel data
Execute the following VBS code that exports data with autofilter to Excel.
'============================================================
' Tutorial 20
'
' This tutorial shows how to create an Excel file in VBScript
' and apply an auto-filter to a range of cells.
'============================================================' Constants declarationDim DATATYPE_STRING
DATATYPE_STRING = "string"
WScript.StdOut.WriteLine("Tutorial 20" & vbcrlf & "-----------" & vbcrlf)
' Create an instance of the class that exports Excel filesSet workbook = CreateObject("EasyXLS.ExcelDocument")
' Create a sheet
workbook.easy_addWorksheet_2("Sheet1")
' Get the table of data for the worksheetSet xlsTab = workbook.easy_getSheet("Sheet1")
Set xlsTable = xlsTab.easy_getExcelTable()
' Add data in cells for report headerFor Column = 0 To 4
xlsTable.easy_getCell(0,column).setValue("Column " & (Column + 1))
xlsTable.easy_getCell(0,column).setDataType(DATATYPE_STRING)
Next' Add data in cells for report valuesFor row = 0 To 99
For column = 0 To 4
xlsTable.easy_getCell(row+1,column).setValue("Data " & (row + 1) & ", " & (column + 1))
xlsTable.easy_getCell(row+1,column).setDataType(DATATYPE_STRING)
Next
Next' Apply auto-filter on cell range A1:E1Set xlsFilter = xlsTab.easy_getFilter()
xlsFilter.setAutoFilter_2("A1:E1")
' Export Excel file
WScript.StdOut.WriteLine("Writing file C:\Samples\Tutorial20 - autofilter in Excel sheet.xlsx")
workbook.easy_WriteXLSXFile ("C:\Samples\Tutorial20 - autofilter in Excel sheet.xlsx")
' Confirm export of Excel fileDim sError
sError = workbook.easy_getError()
If sError = ""then
WScript.StdOut.Write(vbcrlf & "File successfully created.")
Else
WScript.StdOut.Write(vbcrlf & "Error: " & sError)
End If' Dispose memory
workbook.Dispose
Wscript.StdOut.Write(vbcrlf & "Press Enter to exit ...")
WScript.StdIn.ReadLine()
How to run VBScript tutorial In order to run the tutorial create a file named Tutorial20.vbs containing previous code, open Command Prompt, change the directory to tutorial location using cd command and type: > cscript Tutorial20.vbs.
Overloaded methods For methods with same name but different parameters, only the first method overload retains the original name. Subsequent overloads are uniquely renamed by appending to the method name '_2', '_3', etc (method, method_2, method_3), an integer that corresponds to the order of declaration that can be found in EasyXLS.h, a file that comes with EasyXLS installation.
