Hi,

 

I tried saving datawindow as XLSX! format in PB2019. But the return value is -1.

Can anybody guide me the script for Saveas XLSX! format?

Awaiting your valuable response.

 

Regards

Jinu Nair

Hi Jinu,

SaveAs to XLSX doesn't need a special script.

There difference between SaveAs to XLS and XLSX is, that export to XLSX uses a .NET assembly in background.

The export fails with -1 if the .NET runtime is not installed or the Sybase.PowerBuilder.DataWindow.Excel12.dll or the PBDWExcel12Interop190.dll is missing.

If you use the Runtime packager to deploy the runtime for your application it installs the files if "MS Excel 12 Support" is checked. The Sybase.PowerBuilder.DataWindow.Excel12.dll file will be installed to the Windows GAC folder. 

You may also try to install the Sybase.PowerBuilder.DataWindow.Excel12.dll in the same directory as your EXE.

HTH,

René

Yes, Adding this dll in the EXE directory solved my issue.

Dear Rene,

Thanks you very much for the quick response.

I guess, your response is in the context to EXE file.

We are using Appeon, in this case how do we manage at the client browser?

Should it resolve if we add the .dll while compiling?

Yes, I talked about a client application.

Maybe this helps you: https://community.appeon.com/index.php/qna/q-a/saveas-to-xlxs-in-powerserver-2020
