Hi,

I am looking for a guide or help with programing a visual interface.

The data should be loaded from excel format.

The interface should be able to respond to commands with base in the excel file.

You are going to provide a bit more detail.

What commands is it going to need to handle?
What do you mean by "with base in the excel file"? Do you mean it is going to save every change that is made?
And what programming language?

dont have any experience programming.

Among others, should it be able to give a notification when a number is below a predefined value.

It is basicly the same excel file just with an visual interface.

And yes it needs to save the changes made in the interface to the excel file

Then I think you are in over your head.

Thats exactly why i made this topic.

from excel format what?

look up html, with no programming experience this shits easy to learn literary in minutes

C# is pretty user friendly, and there are numerous guides that basically start out with what he wants to do it's possible but is it plausible ?

excell files are actually packs of other files formatted in xml
you can right click an excell file (.xslx) and either explore or unpack it to view the contents
from there you simply have to parse out the values you need and analyze them

packages to do this already exist on the web but those will just provide you code incorporate into your own program microsoft even has an interop for C# that allows you to start the application and manipulate it programatically using all the features of excel like conditional formatting and there are a number of Java packages for parsing excel files

As for the user interface... sorry but it's one of those things that you have to know how to do to know how much you don't know. You can make a gui pretty easy with visual studio using the xaml editor or java using the fx scene builder but either way you will have to get into some code in order to make the UI actually work.

gimmie all ur fg and i'll do it for ya

Deal

Lmk when its done i will sent you the fg, i prefer it as an engine with "notifications" it should be able to search keywords in all the excel files in a directory

/ it should also give a list of were the keyword is present in all of the excel files
