Insert new row in Excel using OpenXml with specified columns - c#

This code is working fine but i want to do that i have 3 sheets in excel file and all sheets
have different columns size , suppose first sheet have 5 columns second have 3 and third have
7 so on the basis of sheets i want to insert new row. Like if first sheet have 5 columns then data
insert only in 5 columns if second have 3 then only 3 values insert like that. So, can any one guide
me to do that.
using(FileStream fs = new FileStream(filepath, Filemode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite,
FileShare.ReadWrite))
{
SpreadSheetDocument document = SpreadsheetDocument.Open(fs, false);
SharedStringTable sharedStringTable =
document.WorkbookPart.SharedStringTablePart.SharedStringTable;
string cellValue = null;
foreach (WorksheetPart worksheetPart in document.WorkbookPart.WorksheetParts.Reverse())
{
int cnt = document.WorkbookPart.WorksheetParts.count();
foreach (SheetData sheetData in worksheetPart.Worksheet.Elements<SheetData>())
{
if (sheetData.HasChildren)
{
foreach (Row row in sheetData.Elements<Row>())
{
foreach (Cell cell in row.Elements<Cell>())
{
Row row = new Row();
row.Append(ConstructCell("firstvalue",CellValues.String));
sheetData.AppendChild(row);
WorksheetPart.Worksheet.Save();
}
}
}
}
}
}
document.Close();
Public static Cell ConstructCell(string value , CellValues datatype)
{
return new Cell(){CellValue = new CellValue(value),DataType = new EnumValue<CellValues>
(datatype)};
}

I done it.
//Replace this from
Row row = new Row();
row.Append(ConstructCell("firstvalue",CellValues.String));
sheetData.AppendChild(row);
WorksheetPart.Worksheet.Save();
//To this one ::
var rows = sheetData.Elements<Row>;
int rwCnt = rows.Count();
var clCnt = rows.First().ChildElements.Count();
for(int i = 0; i < 1 ; i++)
{
Row row = new Row();
for(j = 0; j < clCnt; j++)
{
row.Append(
ConstructCell("firstvalue",CellValues.String)
)
}
sheetData.AppendChild(row);
WorksheetPart.Worksheet.Save();
}

Filter specific rows of worksheet C#

I'm currently trying to get specific rows of an Excel file in my code.
I get the data of my Excel file with this code:
FileInfo existingFile = new FileInfo(local_in_file_path);
using (ExcelPackage package = new ExcelPackage(existingFile))
{
ExcelWorksheet worksheet = package.Workbook.Worksheets[1];
int colCount = worksheet.Dimension.End.Column; //get Column Count
int rowCount = worksheet.Dimension.End.Row; //get row count
List<string> testlist = new List<string>();
List<string> articlelist = new List<string>();
for (int row = 1; row <= rowCount; row++)
{
for (int col = 1; col <= colCount; col++)
{
testlist.Add(worksheet.Cells[row, col].Value?.ToString().Trim());
foreach (var i in testlist)
{
if (articlelist.Contains(i))
{
continue;
}
else
{
articlelist.Add(i);
}
}
}
}
foreach (var article in articlelist)
{
var rows = worksheet.Row().Where(n => n = article); //doesnt work
}
In the foreach loop I want all rows, in which the specific article occurs. How can I do this?
Be careful because when you add something to testlist you are picking only 1 cell everytime (so if your excel file is structured like "1 row has 'article name' , 'description' ecc you are running through every col in every row so it's pretty inefficient, if you could only provide an example of your excel file we can try to help, and does that foreach create an exception or something else?

OpenXML document with repeating row won't open (in OpenOffice)

I'm creating a new open xml document. When I write unique data/rows to the document I can open it a variety of programs. When I write a non-unique row and attempt to open the document in Apache OpenOffice I get an error General Error. General input/output error. Obviously this isn't very descriptive so I'm assuming I'm creating my document wrong but I'm not sure what is missing/wrong
Things I've tried:
The solution listed in the OpenOffice Documentation
Using the OpenXmlValidator
This doesn't return any errors
Opening in different software: Microsoft Office Excel Viewer and LibreOffice Calc.
The file opens in these but the machines running this code don't have this software installed
The weird fix
Rename the a.xlsx => a.zip
Extract the contents from the zip file
Zip up all the contents (using winrar and windows compressed zipped folder) named b.zip
Rename the b.zip to b.xlsx
The file now opens in OpenOffice without any error.
Doing a diff on the unzipped files shows no differences, doing a diff on a.xlsx and b.xlsx there are differences but nothing that makes sense to me

Running the program once will create what I believe is a valid openxml document which will open in Apache OpenOffice. Running the program twice will add two lines of which 1 is not unique to the document. This will cause the error to show up in OpenOffice, but not in the other programs (Excel Viewer/Libreoffice Calc).
Unfortunately I need to use OpenOffice as its whats installed on the computers, but I'm not sure what I am doing wrong when creating the document. Do I need to add something to the rows to indicate that it is a duplicate?
Edit: To run the code you need the DocumentFormat.OpenXML nuget package
Edit1: This only occurs when running the program twice. If I were to just append a 4 rows two of which were identical and attempt to open the file I have no issue. Note that the InsertObjectAt method also opens the document everytime (once for each cell so 4 rows by 2 cols = 8 times).

Iterating and adding all column names to a ComboBox using EPPlus

I need to add the column names within a sheet to a combobox
I have tried the following
var pck = new OfficeOpenXml.ExcelPackage();
pck.Load(new System.IO.FileInfo("test.xlsx").OpenRead());
var ws = pck.Workbook.Worksheets[1];
int totalCols = ws.Dimension.End.Column;
for (int i = 1; i <= totalCols; i++)
{
comboBox1.Items.Add( (ws.Column(i).ToString()));
}
}
But this produces a Null Reference Exception.
Why is that happening?
Ensure that you're loading the package correctly and selecting the values correctly:
// Select workbook
var fileInfo = new FileInfo(#"yourfile.xlsx");
// Load workbook
using (var package = new ExcelPackage(fileInfo)) {
// Itterate through workbook sheets
foreach (var sheet in package.Workbook.Worksheets){
// Itterate through each column until final column
for (int i = 1; i <= sheet.Dimension.End.Column; i++) {
comboBox1.Items.Add(sheet.Cells[1, i].Text);
}
}
}
This runs correctly in a new workbook with two sheets and values in the columns of each sheet.

Setting the background color for specific cells in HSSFWork sheet using C#

I am trying to generate an excel sheet using HSSFWorkbook. I want to set the background color of a cell. I am using HSSFWorkbook, but am unfortunately unable to get the background color.
I need to set some cells to the same color and some other cells to more than one color.
My code is so far:
HSSFWorkbook workbook = new HSSFWorkbook();
MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
DataSet repds = exceldetils.ToDataSet("Batch");
HSSFSheet sheets = (NPOI.HSSF.UserModel.HSSFSheet)workbook.CreateSheet("Batch");
HSSFRow headerRow = (NPOI.HSSF.UserModel.HSSFRow)sheets.CreateRow(0);
//
List<string> columnnames = new List<string>();
foreach (DataColumn column in repds.Tables[0].Columns)
{
//column.ColumnName = HSSFFont.FONT_ARIAL;
// columnnames.Add(column.ColumnName);
headerRow.CreateCell(column.Ordinal).SetCellValue(column.ColumnName);
}
var cHelp = workbook.GetCreationHelper();
HSSFFont hFont = (HSSFFont)workbook.CreateFont();
hFont.Boldweight = (short)FontBoldWeight.Bold;
hFont.Color = HSSFColor.Black.Index;
hFont.FontHeightInPoints = 10 ;
HSSFCellStyle hs = workbook.CreateCellStyle();
HSSFCellStyle hStyle =(HSSFCellStyle) workbook.CreateCellStyle();
hStyle.SetFont(hFont);
hStyle.BorderBottom = BorderStyle.Medium;
hStyle.FillBackgroundColor = HSSFColor.Black.Index;
hStyle.FillPattern = FillPattern.SolidForeground;
int cellCount = 0;
foreach (string str in columnnames)
{
HSSFCell cell = (HSSFCell)headerRow.CreateCell(cellCount);
cell.SetCellValue(cHelp.CreateRichTextString((str)));
cell.CellStyle = hStyle;
cellCount += 1;
}
int rowIndex = 1;
foreach (DataRow row1 in repds.Tables[0].Rows)
{
HSSFRow dataRow = (NPOI.HSSF.UserModel.HSSFRow)sheets.CreateRow(rowIndex);
foreach (DataColumn column in repds.Tables[0].Columns)
{
dataRow.CreateCell(column.Ordinal).SetCellValue(row1[column].ToString());
}
rowIndex++;
}
workbook.Write(memoryStream);
//memoryStream.Flush();
//memoryStream.GetBuffer();

Add Cell and Row in openXML

I have pre define excel format i need to pass the data to excel.I'm able to get the particular sheet .But don't know how to pass the data to cell.
var excelDocument = new ExcelDocument();
var fileName = Guid.NewGuid();
string filePath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/Uploads/TemplateFiles/test.xlsx");
using (SpreadsheetDocument document =
SpreadsheetDocument.Open(filePath, false))
{
WorkbookPart workbookPart = document.WorkbookPart;
Workbook workbook = document.WorkbookPart.Workbook;
string sheetName = workbookPart.Workbook.Descendants<Sheet>().ElementAt(1).Name;
IEnumerable<Sheet> sheets = document.WorkbookPart.Workbook.Descendants<Sheet>().Where(s => s.Name == "Census Template for Import");
if (sheets.Count() == 0)
{
// The specified worksheet does not exist.
return null;
}
WorksheetPart worksheetPart = (WorksheetPart)document.WorkbookPart.GetPartById(sheets.First().Id);
SheetData sheetData = worksheetPart.Worksheet.GetFirstChild<SheetData>();
var excelRows = sheetData.Descendants<DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Spreadsheet.Row>().ToList();
int rowindex = 10;
foreach (var item in census)
{
//how to write the data in cell
rowindex++;
}
worksheetPart.Worksheet.Save();
workbookPart.Workbook.Save();
document.Close();
//worksheetPart.Worksheet.Save();
}
return filePath;
Here is a method for getting a cell or adding a new one, if the cell does not exists, when you know both the row and column indexes.
Note that:
rowIndex and columnIndex should start with 1
property RowIndex of a Row should be initialized during the creation of the row
property CellReference of a Cell should be initialized during the creation of the cell
If RowIndex or CellReference is null, then NullReferenceException will be thrown.
private Cell InsertCell(uint rowIndex, uint columnIndex, Worksheet worksheet)
{
Row row = null;
var sheetData = worksheet.GetFirstChild<SheetData>();
// Check if the worksheet contains a row with the specified row index.
row = sheetData.Elements<Row>().FirstOrDefault(r => r.RowIndex == rowIndex);
if (row == null)
{
row = new Row() { RowIndex = rowIndex };
sheetData.Append(row);
}
// Convert column index to column name for cell reference.
var columnName = GetExcelColumnName(columnIndex);
var cellReference = columnName + rowIndex; // e.g. A1
// Check if the row contains a cell with the specified column name.
var cell = row.Elements<Cell>()
.FirstOrDefault(c => c.CellReference.Value == cellReference);
if (cell == null)
{
cell = new Cell() { CellReference = cellReference };
if (row.ChildElements.Count < columnIndex)
row.AppendChild(cell);
else
row.InsertAt(cell, (int)columnIndex);
}
return cell;
}
Here you will find the code of GetExcelColumnName() method.
Can't tell if its a new file your creating or appending into an existing one but:
spreadSheet.WorkbookPart.WorksheetParts.First().Worksheet.First().AppendChild(new Row());
sheet.First().Last().AppendChild(new Cell() { CellValue = new CellValue("test") });
Should work for both cases but the new cell will be put on the last active row in the first sheet.
I had the same issue that you had and this article How to: Insert text into a cell in a spreadsheet document (Open XML SDK). I guess you need to insert a new Cell object into your worksheet and then insert the specified data (assuming it is a string or that it has already being cast into a string) into that cell.
Seems you define rowindex=10, there are two way to add rows.
If row 10 is last row in your excel then you can simply append new row like:
foreach (var item in census)
{
//how to write the data in cell
Row row = new Row();
row.RowIndex = (UInt32)rowindex;
Cell cell = new Cell()
{
DataType = CellValues.String,
CellValue = new CellValue("value")
};
row.Append(cell);
sheetData.Append(row);
rowindex++;
}
If there are rows after row 10 then you have to use insert,then manually change rows and cells after row 10
index to the right index value like:
foreach (var item in census)
{
//how to write the data in cell
Row refRow = GetRow(sheetData, rowIndex);
++rowIndex;
Cell cell1 = new Cell() { CellReference = "A" + rowIndex };
CellValue cellValue1 = new CellValue();
cellValue1.Text = "";
cell1.Append(cellValue1);
Row newRow = new Row()
{
RowIndex = rowIndex
};
newRow.Append(cell1);
for (int i = (int)rowIndex; i <= sheetData.Elements<Row>().Count(); i++)
{
var row = sheetData.Elements<Row>().Where(r => r.RowIndex.Value == i).FirstOrDefault();
row.RowIndex++;
foreach (Cell c in row.Elements<Cell>())
{
string refer = c.CellReference.Value;
int num = Convert.ToInt32(Regex.Replace(refer, #"[^\d]*", ""));
num++;
string letters = Regex.Replace(refer, #"[^A-Z]*", "");
c.CellReference.Value = letters + num;
}
}
sheetData.InsertAfter(newRow, refRow);
rowindex++;
}
static Row GetRow(SheetData wsData, UInt32 rowIndex)
{
var row = wsData.Elements<Row>().
Where(r => r.RowIndex.Value == rowIndex).FirstOrDefault();
if (row == null)
{
row = new Row();
row.RowIndex = rowIndex;
wsData.Append(row);
}
return row;
}
This is a prototype. You might need to change some code or variable name to fit your project.
