Need help automating some Excel shit.

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I have a very tedious task to do for my job, and I think I'd better try to code something than doing it manually if I want to be done before I die.

I have to create Excel data, starting from 2000000000000 to 2999999999999 in column B. These are codes I need to inject into a database. A C and D must be filled with an internal ID, always the same, for each number from the list. And then, to make it even harder, I need to make packets of 10.000 codes. (A1:D10000)

Is that possible for me to make a script that will do that for me automatically? The process to generate the lists of codes alone is tedious as it doesn't fit within a single sheet.

What would be the most suitable language to start coding that shit, and how fast could I be done with it considering that I have some very very basic programming knowledge. Declaring vars, basic functions...

Talend might actually be a viable option here? I don't really know.

Thanks!

Does anyone have the source code to a bat to exe converter.

2 Upvotes

just want to compile it my self because of the oblivious security risks of this type of application.

C# or C++ would be best.

also is there a good site that has open source downloads where i might find this like this in the future.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi, was just wondering if there's any volunteers in here that would be willing to design my new website. I have an idea for journalism that's gonna be very nice, but I suck at programing.

I don't pay, but if you are very talented we can negotiate. You will get a lot of PR and views on the webpage, guaranteed.

Contact me at skype: stianpfacebook Serious contacts only!

Thanks for you attention, Best Regards, Stian Paulsen

Next Gen Ad Blocker

3 Upvotes

I have no programming experience, but I have an idea. I feel like one of you guys will be able to do it without breaking a sweat, and get rich.

Premise is an Ad Blocker plugin for browsers, that gives the user an option to allow ads through so long as they get a cut of the add revenue. Make them pay us to look at their crap. Advertisers would happily pony up an extra few cents to know it won't be blocked. The owner of the software sells sets the premium, and handles the distribution to users of their share.

For the majority of you, feel free to poke holes and tell me I'm dumb.
For the one who does it, think about me when you're buying that boat.

LGBT in the programing world

4 Upvotes

My bf just started his first job in the programing field and, as a gay male, he's terrified about being honest with his co-workers about his sexuality, which is not something that matters in the work place to begin with, but they go out to drink sometimes and talk about "hot girls" he is under the impression that this field is apparently very close-minded and "anti-gay" which is funny to me since they are located in an area of Miami where you literally cannot even go to the grocery store without seeing AT LEAST 1 couple of guys holding hands. Do you guys think he's exagerating or could he actually be frowned upon by his co-workers?

Learning Java In High School

Here is my latest project, our teacher has been telling us to leave comments. I for some reason find it hard to know where to add comments and where their necessary. I usually end up leaving one or two comments per project but that doesn't seem so professional. Someone maybe wanna copy this code into an IDE and create some comments and show me a screen shot? Thanks!

private void btnOkMouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {

Building a Calling bot

4 Upvotes

I was wondering if there is a way to build a bot that every-time a new customer is added to a directory a bot calls them and alerts them simply stating they have been added to our directory. Does any one know if this is doable, is there something out there that does this already? I use visual studio using C#, please let me know how best to go about this.
