obtain information on excel files

7 次查看(过去 30 天)
Is there a method for obtaining more information for excel files? I can use
[status,sheets,format] = xlsfinfo(filename)
to find the names of each sheet in the workbook, however, I'm trying to find a way of obtaining the number of measurements i.e. the number of rows and columns in the excel files. Is there a way of doing this without having to import the data into matlab?

You could open the file using actxserver (see doc) and make your way through the file using methods and properties. It probably will be cumbersome, though.

I have used actxserver before but it takes too long to process the excel files (75+ files) therefore was hoping to aviod using it.

But you could still save some time: if you take a look at xlsfinfo, you see, that it starts Excel as activeX server as well. Most of the time is spent for two lines, namely starting the server and opening/closing a file. You could save the first by looping over all files without stopping the activex server. I guess not much else can be done ...

I guess if you know VBA then you can use to get what u want after opening with activeX server. for example below, sheets and counts are funtion of excel.
excelObj = actxserver('Excel.Application');
excelWorkbook = excelObj.workbooks.Open('Book2.xls');
worksheets = excelObj.sheets;
numSheets = worksheets.Count;
