Using Jet to read excel file returns blank for last cell
With VB6 I am opening an Excel file to query the contents using ADO. I am then using the contents of the worksheet to create a format file that is used for a bulk insert into SQL Server. We designed the program this way so that users can use a spreadsheet to import data in any format they want and process the data based on values set in the spreadsheet. This keeps us from having to design new tables and format files for new record layouts which come down pretty often. Everything works fine usually. There is just one perculiarity that is happening with the Excel file. Sometimes, th...

Use ActiveX controls or the controls in VC
Dear all, I am designing a GUI dialog with MFC in VC6.0. I found that many controls in VC6 can be replaced with ActiveX controls. So one question: which one should we prefer to use? Do ActiveX controls have more advanced features allowing customising? Many thanks, Usually activex control brings extra file dependency to your executable, and sometimes they are licensed. So I would use windows standardard control if there is no special need for activex control.

Is XML robust enough?
Is the DataSet using XML robust enough? I had a table with an autoincrement column in it for an row index. After doing some completly non related work the XML file would not reload. I looked at the XML file and I had a missing row that was replaced by a copy of another row. So I had two rows with the same data, and same IDs in it. From the time the XML file was good to the time it was corrupt the application never deleted a row or added a row. Columns in the row were modified but none were deleted or added, but yet this problem happend. Now I am wondering if XML access in DotNet is robu...
