[stackoverflow] [progress Openedge Abl] Excel Column-width

[noob]

I would like to ask on how to export to excel with a specified column-width. Since the width of a column would depend on the character length.

Here is my sample code:

Excel Procedure:

DEFINE VARIABLE h-excel AS COM-HANDLE NO-UNDO.
DEFINE VARIABLE h-sheet AS COM-HANDLE.
DEFINE VAR w-invname AS CHAR INITIAL "file-path\excel.xls".

CREATE "Excel.Application" h-excel.

h-sheet = h-excel:Workbooks:OPEN (w-invname,,FALSE,,,,,,,,,,FALSE) NO-ERROR.
h-excel:visible = true.

h-excel:Cells:Select.

h-excel:Run("loading").

/*h-excel:Range("A" + STRING(5)):VALUE = "Date Covered " + STRING(fifr) + " - " + STRING(fito).*/

h-excel:Range("A6"):Select.

RELEASE OBJECT h-sheet.
RELEASE OBJECT h-excel.

END PROCEDURE.


Excel Macro:

Sub loading()
'
' loading Macro

'
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:="TEXT;file-path\text.txt", _
Destination:=Range("A6"))
.Name = "CarSumm"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.TextFilePromptOnRefresh = False
.TextFilePlatform = xlWindows
.TextFileStartRow = 1
.TextFileParseType = xlDelimited
.TextFileTextQualifier = xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote
.TextFileConsecutiveDelimiter = False
.TextFileTabDelimiter = False
.TextFileSemicolonDelimiter = False
.TextFileCommaDelimiter = False
.TextFileSpaceDelimiter = False
.TextFileOtherDelimiter = "|"
.TextFileColumnDataTypes = Array(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn = 3
ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn = 6
ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn = 9
End Sub
