Determine Data Rows and Columns in Excel
« on: May 18, 2016, 03:41:55 PM »
Purpose:
To determine the data rows and columns from user selected Excel file.


Liquid UI Code:

// SAPLSMTR_NAVIGATION.E0100.sjs
// User Interface - SAP Easy Access Screen
load('wsoffice');   // Need to load this file to display File Selection pop-up
clearscreen();
inputfield([1,0], "Excel Rows", [1,15], {"size":3, "name":"z_mm01_rows"});
inputfield([2,0], "Excel Columns", [2,15], {"size":3, "name":"z_mm01_cols"});
pushbutton([4,0],"@0V@Read Excel", "?", {"process":excelRowColumnCount});

// Remove blank spaces
String.prototype.trim=function(){return this.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,'');}

// To validate if the variable holds blank or null value
function isBlank(jvar){
   if(typeof jvar == 'string') {
      jvar = jvar.trim();
   }
   return(jvar == 'undefined' || jvar == null || jvar == "" || jvar == void 0);
}

// Function to Show File Open Dialog
function selectFileDialog(szPrompt){ 
    if(szPrompt==void 0)
      szPrompt = 'Select Excel File';
    var dialog = new ActiveXObject('MsComDlg.CommonDialog'); 
    // dialog.Filter='All Files(*.*)|*.*'; 
    dialog.Filter='(*.xl*)|*.xl*';  // BD
    dialog.MaxFileSize=32767; 
    //dialog.AllowMultiSelect = true;
    dialog.DialogTitle=szPrompt;
    dialog.Flags=0x200|0x80000|0x800|0x4|0x200000 
    dialog.ShowOpen(); 
    //var ret = dialog.FileTitle;
    var ret = dialog.FileName;
    dialog = void 0;
    return ret;


// Function to open Excel File From The File Selection Dialog
function openExcel(filename) {
    if(excelObj == void 0)
      excelObj = new ActiveXObject('Excel.Application');
    excelBook = excelObj.Workbooks.Open(filename);
    excelObj.Visible = true;
    excelObj.ScreenUpdating = true;
}

// Determine Total Number of Columns with Data in Excel SpreadSheet
function determineNoOfDataColumns(excelActiveSheet, nColumnHeadingRow) {
   var excelColumnCount = excelActiveSheet.Columns.Count;
   for(var i = 1; i<excelColumnCount;i++) {
      if (excelActiveSheet.Cells(nColumnHeadingRow, i).Value == undefined || typeof(excelActiveSheet.Cells(nColumnHeadingRow, i).Value) == 'undefined') {
         break;
      }
   }
   return i;
}

// Determine Total Number of Rows with Data in Excel SpreadSheet
function determineNoOfDataRows(excelActiveSheet, nTotalDataColumns, nStartDataRow) {
   var excelRowCount = excelActiveSheet.Rows.Count;
   for(var i = nStartDataRow; i<excelRowCount;i++) {
      lastRowFound = false;
      for(var j = 2; j<nTotalDataColumns;j++) {
         if (excelActiveSheet.Cells(i, j).Value == undefined || typeof(excelActiveSheet.Cells(i, j).Value) == 'undefined') {
            lastRowFound = true;;
         } else {
            lastRowFound = false;
            break;
         }
      }
      if(lastRowFound == true) {
         // Last Row with Data + 1;
         break;
      }
   }
   return i;
}

// Function to determine rows and columns
function excelRowColumnCount(){
   OPEN_EXCEL_FILE:;
    if(excelObj == void 0) {
       excelFileName = selectFileDialog('Select Excel File');
      if(excelFileName.length) {
         openExcel(excelFileName);
         excelSheet = excelBook.ActiveSheet;
      } else {
         message('E: No Excel File Selected');
         return;            // If Problem opening selected excel file, stop the process
      }
   } else {               // Excel is already open (Manually Opened or Re-run for Error Processing)
      try {
         excelSheet = excelBook.ActiveSheet;
         // Check to see if we can read cell value, if not then Re-Open Excel File
         var cellCheckValue = excelSheet.Cells(1, 2).Value;   
      }
      catch(err) {
         delete excelObj;
         goto OPEN_EXCEL_FILE;
      }
   }
   
   totalDataColumns = determineNoOfDataColumns(excelSheet,1);
   totalDataRows = determineNoOfDataRows(excelSheet,totalDataColumns,1);
   totalDataColumns = totalDataColumns-1;
   totalDataRows = totalDataRows-1;
   set('V[z_mm01_rows]','&V[totalDataColumns]');
   set('V[z_mm01_cols]','&V[totalDataRows]');
}
