Hi. How can I open text file with comma delimited value using excel in
delphi then transferring it to grid? I try this code below but it doesn't
give me the rigth result.
Maybe there is something lacking in my code while opening a text file.

var
Sheet, objExcel : Variant;
iMaxRow, iMaxCol : Integer;
AFilename : String;
begin

AFilename := location of the file.

objExcel := CreateOleObject('Excel.Application');

objExcel.Workbooks.OpenText(AFilename);

Sheet := objExcel.WorkSheets[1];

iMaxRow := Sheet.Usedrange.EntireRow.Count;
iMaxCol := Sheet.Usedrange.EntireColumn.Count;

end;

Thanks,
Aldwin Olanda

You probably need to give Excel additional parameters to tell it something
about what you expect as the right result. The Microsoft Excel VBA help for
the opentext method should help you in this.

You must define the delimiter as parameter in OpenText method

When I try putting some parameters it give me error, It means it doesn't
accept any parameters only the file to be open. But what I did is I've drop
the code and get an Object ExcelApplication and supplied parameters on it
based on the MSDN. But I've encountered Ole error. Below is the code.

var
Value1, Value2,Value3,Value4, Value5 : olevariant;
AWideString : WideString;

begin

ExcelApplication1.Connect;

ExcelApplication1.Workbooks.OpenText(AWideString,xlWindows,1,xlDelimited,xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,xlGeneralFormat,'
',Value2,Value3,Value4,Value5,1);

end;

Thanks,
Aldwin

Thanks for the info. I've drop the codes, I use the following instead. But
still I'm experiencing Ole error.

var
Value1, Value2,Value3,Value4, Value5 : olevariant;
AWideString : WideString;

begin

ExcelApplication1.Connect;

ExcelApplication1.Workbooks.OpenText(AWideString,xlWindows,1,xlDelimited,xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,xlGeneralFormat,'
',Value2,Value3,Value4,Value5,1);

end;

Best regards,
Aldwin
