Parameters

  • ConsecutiveDelimiter
    Type: System.Object
    true to have Excel consider consecutive delimiters as one delimiter. The default value is false.
  • Tab
    Type: System.Object
    true to have DataType be xlDelimited and to have the tab character be a delimiter. The default value is false.
  • Semicolon
    Type: System.Object
    true to have DataType be xlDelimited and to have the semicolon be a delimiter. The default value is false.
  • Comma
    Type: System.Object
    true to have DataType be xlDelimited and to have the comma be a delimiter. The default value is false.
  • Space
    Type: System.Object
    true to have DataType be xlDelimited and to have the space character be a delimiter. The default value is false.
  • Other
    Type: System.Object
    true to have DataType be xlDelimited and to have the character specified by the OtherChar argument be a delimiter. The default value is false.
  • OtherChar
    Type: System.Object
    The delimiter character when Other is true. If more than one character is specified, only the first character of the string is used; the remaining characters are ignored.
  • FieldInfo
    Type: System.Object
    An array containing parse information for the individual columns of data. The interpretation depends on the value of DataType. When the data is delimited, this argument is an array of two-element arrays, with each two-element array specifying the conversion options for a particular column. The first element is the column number (1-based), and the second element is one of the XlColumnDataType constants specifying how the column is parsed.
    Can be one of the following XlColumnDataType values:
    xlGeneralFormat
    xlTextFormat
    xlMDYFormat
    xlDMYFormat
    xlYMDFormat
    xlMYDFormat
    xlDYMFormat
    xlYDMFormat
    xlEMDFormat
    xlSkipColumn
    You can use xlEMDFormat only if Taiwanese language support is installed and selected. xlEMDFormat specifies that Taiwanese era dates are being used.
    The column specifiers can be in any order. If a given column specifier is not present for a particular column in the input data, the column is parsed with the xlGeneralFormat setting.
    If the source data has fixed-width columns, the first element of each two-element array specifies the starting character position in the column (as an integer; 0 (zero) is the first character). The second element of the two-element array specifies the parse option for the column as a number from 1 through 9, as listed above.
  • DecimalSeparator
    Type: System.Object
    The decimal separator that Excel uses when recognizing numbers. The default setting is the system setting.
  • ThousandsSeparator
    Type: System.Object
    The thousands separator that Excel uses when recognizing numbers. The default setting is the system setting.
  • TrailingMinusNumbers
    Type: System.Object
    Numbers that begin with a minus character.

Examples

The following code example uses the TextToColumns method to convert a space-delimited date string in a NamedRange to three columns.

This example is for a document-level customization.

    Private Sub ConvertTextToColumns()
        Dim namedRange1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange _
            = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("A1"), _
            "namedRange1")

        namedRange1.Value2 = "01 01 2001"
        Dim destinationRange As Excel.Range = Me.Range("A5")

        namedRange1.TextToColumns(destinationRange, _
            Excel.XlTextParsingType.xlDelimited, _
            Excel.XlTextQualifier.xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote, , , , , _
            True, , , , , , )
    End Sub

private void ConvertTextToColumns()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange namedRange1 =
        this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A1", missing],
        "namedRange1");

    namedRange1.Value2 = "01 01 2001";
    Excel.Range destinationRange = this.Range["A5", missing];

    namedRange1.TextToColumns(destinationRange,
        Excel.XlTextParsingType.xlDelimited,
        Excel.XlTextQualifier.xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote, missing,
        missing, missing, missing, true, missing, missing, missing,
        missing, missing, missing);
}
