IDtExcelConsumer.Table

Syntax

Table: String;

Description

The Table property determines the name of the Excel file sheet, to which data is exported.

Example

Executing the example requires that the repository contains an ETL task with the Etl identifier.

Sub Main;

Var

MB: IMetabase;

MObj: IMetabaseObject;

EtlTask: IEtlTask;

EtlConsumer: IEtlPlainDataConsumer;

ExcelConsumer: IDtExcelConsumer;

WxConsumer: IWxRectangle;

WxETLConsumer: IWxETLObject;

Begin

MB := MetabaseClass.Active;

//ETL task search. Repository object with the ETL identifier

MObj := MB.ItemById("Etl").Edit;

EtlTask := MObj As IEtlTask;

//Start of the source creation

//The Export To Excel object creation

EtlConsumer := EtlTask.Create(EtlObjectType.PlainDataExcelConsumer) As IEtlPlainDataConsumer;

EtlConsumer := EtlConsumer.Edit;

EtlConsumer.Id := "Excel_Consumer";

EtlConsumer.Name := "Export to Excel";

EtlConsumer.Description := "Export to Excel";

//Data source setting

ExcelConsumer := EtlConsumer.Consumer As IDtExcelConsumer;

ExcelConsumer.File := "c:\DataOut.xls";

ExcelConsumer.Table := "OutputData";

ExcelConsumer.DriverVersion := "Excel 8.0";

//Saving the source

EtlConsumer.Save;

//End of source creation

//Start of visual object creation

WxConsumer := EtlTask.Workspace.CreateRectangle;

WxETLConsumer := New WxETLObject.Create;

WxETLConsumer.ETLObject := EtlConsumer;

WxConsumer.Style.TextPosition := WxTextPosition.Bottom;

WxConsumer.Style.PictureMarginTop := -10;

WxConsumer.PinPosition := New GxPointF.Create(50, 50);

WxConsumer.Extension := WxETLConsumer As IWxShapeExtension;

//End of visual object creation

//Save Etl task

MObj.Save;

End Sub Main;

After executing the example the Export to Excel object is created in the ETL task. The consumer exports data into the DataOut.xls Excel file. If such file does not exist, it is created. The name of the sheet, to which export is performed is OutputData. The Excel 8.0 drivers are used for connection.
