Qt and Excell file

[Babs]

Hello,
Is there any Qt feature allowing to work efficiently with Excel format files ( read, write , extraction...) ?

@Babs you can use QSql (to a certain degree) or Qt's ActiveX framework

the wiki has an example:

@J-Hilk thanks

@Babs I've got the following when i use the Qt's ActiveX framework

    QCoreApplication app(argc,argv);
    QAxObject* excel = new QAxObject( "Excel.Application");
    qDebug()<<"jere";
    QAxObject* workbooks = excel->querySubObject( "Workbooks" );
    /*QAxObject* workbook = workbooks->querySubObject( "Open(const QString&)", "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MILESYS\\SacemSol\\secteur_11\\resultat\\20200728_161431RERA_S11.xlsx" );
    QAxObject* sheets = workbook->querySubObject( "Worksheets" );
    QList<QVariantList> data; //Data list from excel, each QVariantList is worksheet row

    //worksheets count
    int count = sheets->dynamicCall("Count()").toInt();
    qDebug()<<count;*/




    return app.exec();

I've got this error after launching:

QAxBase::setControl: requested control Excel.Application could not be instantiated
jere
QAxBase::dynamicCallHelper: Object is not initialized, or initialization failed

Hi
You do have Excel installed, right ?

There is also
https://github.com/dbzhang800/QtXlsxWriter
http://qtxlsx.debao.me/

Also see here
https://forum.qt.io/topic/89536/qaxobject-and-excel/3
use QApplication a(argc, argv); instead of QCoreApplication app(argc,argv);
Ahh should work.
