- ImportFromCSV method, ImportFromCSVstring method.
Behavior
The RearrangeFields method will change the order of all fields specified in the current instance, if all records have the same number of fields. The FieldsOrder parameter will indicate the new order of the fields/columns. The method requires specifying a position for all sigle fields. A string such as "0-3,5-4,6-11" used as a parameter will leave the position of fields with indexes 0 to 3 unchanged, swap the fields at indexes 5 and 4, and leave all remaining fields in position.
☕Example
Sub Rearrange()
Dim CSVint As CSVinterface
Set CSVint = New CSVinterface
With CSVint.parseConfig
.path = Environ("USERPROFILE") & "\Desktop\Demo_100000records.csv"
End With
With CSVint
.ImportFromCSV .parseConfig
On Error Resume Next
.RearrangeFields "0-7,10-8,11" 'Leave unchanged fields at indexes from
'0 to 7, swap the field at index 8 and 10.
'Field at index 9 and 11 remain in its
'position.
End With
Set CSVint = Nothing
End Sub
