Hello,

I try to import an excel file to ax so i can get  the value of specific column using this :

Is there anyway to get the Column Name  ?

    Hello ,

    IT's ok i 'm using this :

    if(sauParmCopyPasteLines.FieldId == fieldNum(LedgerJournalTrans, AmountCurDebit)

    || sauParmCopyPasteLines.FieldId == fieldNum(LedgerJournalTrans, AmountCurCredit) )

    instead of  if(columnIndex == 6 || columnIndex == 7)

    Hi André,

    I'm using the custom code and i search the field name of the first row.

    I’ll explain my problem , the list of column name is setting in one form and when I import the file  I have in this file two column with Amount value.(like 423.42 & 4567.66). In Excel when we change the point by comma in the value of amount ,after the import we get only for (423,42 & 4567,66) => .( 423 & 4567). Without the decimal value.This is coming when we use this function

    Cellstr = this.COMVariant2Str(cells.item(rowIdx, columnIndex).value());

    // convert into str from excel cell value

    str comVariant2Str(COMVariant _cv, int _decimals = 0, int _characters = 0, int _separator1 = 0, int _separator2 = 0)

    {

    }

    Here by default I have decimals = 0 but I want change this decimals to 2 for only two column.

    Actualy I’m do that and it’s work but what if the order of field change in the parmeter form..

    if(columnIndex == 6 || columnIndex == 7)

    {

      Cellstr = num2str(cells.item(rowIdx, columnIndex).value().double(),0,2,0,0);

    }

    Hi Alex,

    What technology are you using to import the excel file? Data Import Export Framework or custom coding? What is the purpose of getting the Column name? Are you searching for 'A','B','C' etc or the field name on the first row?
