Hello all, I was really hoping I would figure this out on my own but so far no good.
Basicaly, what I'm trying to achieve:
I need to be able to search for a username in autoit and it return the computer name for that user.
I have a list of usernames and computer names in two different columns in an Excel (.xlsx) file.
I'm really struggling to grasp how the different Excel UDF stuff works.
When I run the script shown below, I'm only getting a result of "Sheet1||$A$1993|username|username|"
From using example scripts, this is what I have so far:
#include <Array.au3> #include <Excel.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> ; Create application object and open an example workbook Local $oAppl = _Excel_Open() If @error Then Exit MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeRead Example", "Error creating the Excel application object." & @CRLF & "@error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended) Local $oWorkbook = _Excel_BookOpen($oAppl, @ScriptDir & "\Extras\_Excel1.xls") If @error Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeRead Example", "Error opening workbook '" & @ScriptDir & "\Extras\_Excel1.xls'." & @CRLF & "@error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended) _Excel_Close($oAppl) Exit EndIf ; ***************************************************************************** ; Read the formulas of a cell range (all used cells in column A and B) ; ***************************************************************************** Local $aResult = _Excel_RangeRead($oWorkbook, Default, $oWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Usedrange.Columns("A:B"), 2) If @error Then Exit MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeRead Example 3", "Error reading from workbook." & @CRLF & "@error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended) ;MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeRead Example 3", "Data successfully read." & @CRLF & "Please click 'OK' to display all formulas in column A.") _ArrayDisplay($aResult, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeRead Example 3 - Formulas in column A and B") ; ***************************************************************************** ; Find all occurrences of value "username" (partial match) ; ***************************************************************************** Local $aResult2 = _Excel_RangeFind($oWorkBook, "username") If @error Then Exit MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeFind Example 1", "Error searching the range." & @CRLF & "@error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended) ;MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeFind Example 1", "Find all occurrences of value 'username' (partial match)." & @CRLF & "Data successfully searched.") _ArrayDisplay($aResult2, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeFind Example 1")
I'm open to any recommendations.
I feel like there is a simple solution to this, I just can't figure it out.
I can use a different way to store the username/computer name information if there is a better way.
I have tried searching for a solution on the forums and on google and haven't found what i'm looking for.
(I've attached what my excel spreadsheet looks like format wise)
