Greetings,

Thanks for pointing this out - Excel is notorious for this. It's something
with how Excel tells us its info.

Regards,

Thom

Also, I don't know about everyone else, but depending whom you get the data
from, we not only have to check for D.EOF, but DataStation will sometimes
read a blank cell as "", so need to check for D(column) = "" as well.

You could also direct your script to a Count subroutine like:

 

Sub Count()
D.Open_ "Excel_Spreadsheet", ftExcel
F("Count") = "0"
Do
If Not D.EOF_ Then
F("Count") = F("Count") + 1
D.Next_
End If
Loop Until D.EOF_
End Sub

Anyone happen to know a simple object/function to count the number of rows
in an excel spreadsheet from the datastation and return that as a variable?
I think I am making this way more difficult than it needs to be....

Thanks!
