Spreadsheet

Demonstrates Microsoft Office Spreadsheet ActiveX Object.

Description

SPREADSHEET is an example of how to use the Microsoft Office Spreadsheet Object.

This example, in response to the CSSM thread "ActiveX (Microsoft Office Spreadsheet)," demonstrates how to use the MS Office Spreadsheet object to display cell, character, logical and numeric matricies. It also demonstrates how to use an enumerated class workaround and how to
get the active cell, sheet, row and column from the spreadsheet. Various other methods and properties are explored and demonstrated. Much has been lifted from ML examples.

The Microsoft Office Spreadsheet object allows inputs and calcuations.

NOTE: TO SEE AN EXAMPLE OF HOW TO USE GRID OBJECTS WHICH HAVE SOME ADVANTAGES OVER THE MICROSOFT SPREADSHEET OBJECT,SEE MY EXAMPLE CALLED "GRAPH_AND_TABLE" WHICH IS AVAILABLE ON THE MATHWORKS FILE EXCHANGE:

NOTE: If you cannot instantiate the control, try changing 'OWC11.Spreadsheet.11' to 'OWC10.Spreadsheet.10' or even 'OWC9.Spreadsheet.9'

IT'S NOT FANCY, BUT IT WORKS

• MATLAB release: MATLAB 7 (R14)

Good demonstration of properties. However, is there a way to fill the table without a nested loop? I.e. can I assign a Matlab vector to a column without looping through it?

[Michael Robbins]

Yes, use FastFillGrid to fill it without loops:

extremely useful... keep posting stuffs like this so tht novice like me will find it really useful.

how to access the datas inputed by the user in the spread sheet in my mfile. is there direct methods to access by giving the corresponding cell name??

[Vladimir Chernatkin]

How can I make another sheet tab active ('Sheet 2' instead of 'Sheet 1' for example)?
