Hey Guys,

I just managed to export a single item to excel application.My idea now is that when i try to export another record to excel,i want to place it on another sheet and third time,on third sheet...
But now when i try to export another one i have to replace the previous folder when excel tells me that a file already exists.
A little hint folks.here's my new code

 Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
        Dim xlWorkBook As Excel.Workbook
        Dim xlWorkSheet As Excel.Worksheet
        Dim misValue As Object = System.Reflection.Missing.Value


        xlApp = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application
        xlWorkBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Add(misValue)
        xlWorkSheet = xlWorkBook.ActiveSheet
        Dim col As Integer = 1
        For j As Integer = 0 To ListView1.Columns.Count - 1
            xlWorkSheet.Cells(col, 1) = ListView1.Columns(j).Text.ToString
            col = col + 1
        Next
        If Not ListView1.SelectedItems.Count = 0 Then
            With ListView1.SelectedItems.Item(0)
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(1, 2) = .Text.ToString
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(2, 2) = .SubItems(1).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(3, 2) = .SubItems(2).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(4, 2) = .SubItems(3).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(5, 2) = .SubItems(4).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(6, 2) = .SubItems(5).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(7, 2) = .SubItems(6).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(8, 2) = .SubItems(7).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(9, 2) = .SubItems(8).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(10, 2) = .SubItems(9).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(11, 2) = .SubItems(10).Text
                xlWorkSheet.Cells(12, 2) = .SubItems(11).Text
            End With
        Else
            MsgBox("Please select a record to be exported", vbInformation, "Bridge Asset Management")
            Exit Sub
        End If

        xlApp.Cells.Select()
        xlApp.Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit()
        xlApp.Cells.Range("A1").Select()
        xlWorkBook.SaveAs("C:\Users\Abdueie\Desktop\BMS\Bridge Asset Management\Adigrat.xlsx")
        xlWorkBook.Close()
        xlApp.Quit()
        MsgBox("Record has been successfully exported", vbInformation, "Bridge Asset Management")
