C# Read an Exported File Excel with OleDb (Always get exception External table is not in the expected format)

I'm Trying read an exported file from my web with Oledb, but always get "External table is table is not in the expected format" on code OleDbConnection.open() . But when I try copy the values on that excel into new excel, my code is working with that the new one. Its weird right? I must move the values into new excel for read it
This my last code for export excel, I have been tried another code like make excel with htmlwriter and the result always same.
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult ExportToExcel()
{ExcelPackage pck = new ExcelPackage();
ExcelWorksheet ws = pck.Workbook.Worksheets.Add("Sheet1");

suppose there are 2 entries in the excelsheet file.When trying to import,it is inserting those 2 rows entries into the database table.but the problem is that, the reader does not stop its execution.After reading 2 rows entry,it is reading 3rd row which is blank.i have used dr.close and it keeps on reading the rows entries which is blank.

Instead of checking if there are rows left (dr.Read()) as your loop condition, you could check if the first cell of the row is blank (dr[0].ToString() != String.Empty)
string file_name = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.FileName);
string Excel_path = Server.MapPath("~/Excel/" + file_name);
FileUpload1.SaveAs(Excel_path);
OleDbConnection my_con = new OleDbConnection(#"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + Excel_path + ";Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;Persist Security Info=False");
my_con.Open();
OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand("select * from [Sheet1$]", my_con);
OleDbDataReader dr = command.ExecuteReader();
dr.Read();
while (dr[0].ToString() != String.Empty)
{
ex_id = dr[0].ToString();
string ex_uid = dr[1].ToString();
//get second row data and assign it ex_name variable
string ex_date = dr[2].ToString();
//get thirdt row data and assign it ex_name variable
string ex_dir = dr[3].ToString();
//get first row data and assign it ex_location variable
string ex_email = dr[4].ToString();
string ex_email1 = dr[5].ToString();
string ex_email2 = dr[6].ToString();
//string ex_company = dr[7].ToString();
string ex_company = dr[7].ToString();
string ex_contact = dr[8].ToString();
string ex_proposal = dr[9].ToString();
string ex_reason = dr[10].ToString();
...............
//Insert operation
...............
dr.Read();
}
dr.close();
my_con.close();
The premise of course is, that the first column is always filled if the rest of the row isn't blank.
If that isn't the case you can also check other columns in the loop condition.

there is various way of doing that
you can load excel data to datatable and then you can for loop for each row with perticular column name like this
string file_name = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.FileName);
string Excel_path = Server.MapPath("~/Excel/" + file_name);
DataTable dtExceldata = new DataTable();
FileUpload1.SaveAs(Excel_path);
OleDbConnection my_con = new OleDbConnection(#"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + Excel_path + ";Extended
Properties=Excel 8.0;Persist Security Info=False");
OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter("select * from [Sheet1$]", my_con);
da.Fill(dtExceldata);
if(dtExceldata.Rows.Count>0)
{
for (int i = 0; i <= dtExceldata.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
{
//assign value to variable
//like below
//string ex_uid = dtExceldata.Rows[i]["columnName"];
//then insert operation here
}
}

see this excel file
and the datatable in c#
this loop will repeat for only number of row in datatable then also i practically tried this and it only loop for number of row (e.g two times) but i found a bug that if you will enter two row then five blank row then some data it will give you blank value in data table check your excel file there may some blank value as shown in attechment
then also you can skip blank value by checking null value in row like this
for (int i = 0; i <= dtExceldata.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
{
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(Convert.ToString(dtExceldata.Rows[i]["fieldvalues"])))
{
//assign value to variable
//like below
//string ex_uid = dtExceldata.Rows[i]["columnName"];
//then insert operation here
}
}

IndexOutOfRangeException: Cannot find table 0 while filling dataset

when i want to run this code I get an error which throws "IndexOutOfRangeException" on for loop condition. I have tried to use breakpoints and after my DataSet populated clicked on magnifying glass on it. The Visualizer says that it was an empty DataSet. I would appreciate it if someone can help me!

Troubles with importing from a .csv file into a DataTable

I am importing a .csv file's contents into a datatable. This .csv has no column names, which is causing the first row of data to become the columns. How can I prevent this?
I am using string sql_select = "select * from [" + filetable + "]" as my command, and I thought I could use:
DECLARE #tableName [sysname]
SET #tableName = '[" + filetable + "]'
DECLARE #sql [nvarchar](MAX)
SELECT TOP 11 #sql = ISNULL(#sql + ', ', '') + [name] FROM [sys].[all_columns] WHERE OBJECT_ID(#tableName) = [object_id]
ORDER BY [column_id]
SET #sql = 'SELECT ' + #sql + ' FROM ' + #tableName
EXEC (#sql)
To limit the amount of columns to 11, having previously added the column names before.
But I am having trouble getting this to work, as the expected OleDbCommand is SELECT.
Either way, is it possible to use dbDataAdapter.Fill(DataTable); to only fill in rows instead of columns?

There are many similar questions/answers on SO that can help you with this.. This method looks very useful, take a look.
First make sure you are referencing:
using System.Data;
using System.Data.OleDb;
using System.Globalization;
using System.IO;
Here is the method, remember to set isFirstRowHeader to false when you call it:
static DataTable GetDataTableFromCsv(string path, bool isFirstRowHeader)
{
string header = isFirstRowHeader ? "Yes" : "No";
string pathOnly = Path.GetDirectoryName(path);
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(path);
string sql = #"SELECT * FROM [" + fileName + "]";
using(OleDbConnection connection = new OleDbConnection(
#"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + pathOnly +
";Extended Properties=\"Text;HDR=" + header + "\""))
using(OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand(sql, connection))
using(OleDbDataAdapter adapter = new OleDbDataAdapter(command))
{
DataTable dataTable = new DataTable();
dataTable.Locale = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture;
adapter.Fill(dataTable);
return dataTable;
}
}
If this does not help you let me know and I will find another way. Good luck!

If, like me, you're saving from reporting services then you should use it like this:
Warning[] warnings;
string[] streamids;
string mimeType;
string encoding;
string filenameExtension;
byte[] bytes = rvMain.ServerReport.Render("csv", null, out mimeType, out encoding, out filenameExtension, out streamids, out warnings);
string CsvBody = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(bytes);
DataTable dt = GetDataTableFromCsvString(CsvBody,true);
Otherwise, all you need do is:
bool IsHeadings = true; //Does the data include a heading row?
DataTable dt = GetDataTableFromCsvString(CsvBody, IsHeadings);
Or to use directly from a csv file
bool IsHeadings = true; //Does the data include a heading row?
DataTable dt = GetDataTabletFromCsvFile(FilePath, IsHeadings)
Or to use a csv file that is stored remotely
bool IsHeadings = true; //Does the data include a heading row?
DataTable dt = GetDataTabletFromRemoteCsv(Url, IsHeadings)

Uploading an Excel sheet and importing the data into SQL Server database

//Create OleDbCommand to fetch data from Excel
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand("Select [ID],[Name],[Designation] from [Sheet1$]", excelConnection);
excelConnection.Open();
OleDbDataReader dReader;
dReader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
SqlBulkCopy sqlBulk = new SqlBulkCopy(strConnection);

sqlBulk.DestinationTableName = "Excel_table";
sqlBulk.WriteToServer(dReader);
excelConnection.Close();
}
But the code doesn't run when I use
string path = FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName;`
and even
string path="C:\ Users\ Hemant\Documents\example.xlsx";`
The dReader is unable to take the path in this format.
It is only able to take path in the following format
string path="C:\\ Users\\ Hemant\\Documents\\example.xlsx";
i.e. with the the \\ in the path.For which I have to hard code the path but we have to browse the file.
So,can any one please suggest a solution to use the path taken by the FileUpload1 to import the data?

You are dealing with a HttpPostedFile; this is the file that is "uploaded" to the web server. You really need to save that file somewhere and then use it, because...
...in your instance, it just so happens to be that you are hosting your website on the same machine the file resides, so the path is accessible. As soon as you deploy your site to a different machine, your code isn't going to work.
Break this down into two steps:
1) Save the file somewhere - it's very common to see this:
string saveFolder = #"C:\temp\uploads"; //Pick a folder on your machine to store the uploaded files
string filePath = Path.Combine(saveFolder, FileUpload1.FileName);
FileUpload1.SaveAs(filePath);
Now you have your file locally and the real work can be done.
2) Get the data from the file. Your code should work as is but you can simply write your connection string this way:
string excelConnString = String.Format("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source={0};Extended Properties="Excel 12.0";", filePath);
You can then think about deleting the file you've just uploaded and imported.
To provide a more concrete example, we can refactor your code into two methods:
private void SaveFileToDatabase(string filePath)
{
String strConnection = "Data Source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename='C:\\Users\\Hemant\\documents\\visual studio 2010\\Projects\\CRMdata\\CRMdata\\App_Data\\Database1.mdf';Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True";
String excelConnString = String.Format("Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source={0};Extended Properties=\"Excel 12.0\"", filePath);
//Create Connection to Excel work book
using (OleDbConnection excelConnection = new OleDbConnection(excelConnString))
{
//Create OleDbCommand to fetch data from Excel
using (OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand("Select [ID],[Name],[Designation] from [Sheet1$]", excelConnection))
{
excelConnection.Open();
using (OleDbDataReader dReader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
using(SqlBulkCopy sqlBulk = new SqlBulkCopy(strConnection))
{
//Give your Destination table name
sqlBulk.DestinationTableName = "Excel_table";
sqlBulk.WriteToServer(dReader);
}
}
}
}
}
private string GetLocalFilePath(string saveDirectory, FileUpload fileUploadControl)
{
string filePath = Path.Combine(saveDirectory, fileUploadControl.FileName);
fileUploadControl.SaveAs(filePath);
return filePath;
}
You could simply then call SaveFileToDatabase(GetLocalFilePath(#"C:\temp\uploads", FileUpload1));
Consider reviewing the other Extended Properties for your Excel connection string. They come in useful!
Other improvements you might want to make include putting your Sql Database connection string into config, and adding proper exception handling. Please consider this example for demonstration only!

Not sure why the file path is not working, I have some similar code that works fine.
But if with two "\" it works, you can always do path = path.Replace(#"\", #"\\");

You can use OpenXml SDK for *.xlsx files. It works very quickly. I made simple C# IDataReader implementation for this sdk. See here. Now you can easy import excel file to sql server database using SqlBulkCopy. It uses small memory because it reads by SAX(Simple API for XML) method (OpenXmlReader)
Example:
private static void DataReaderBulkCopySample()
{
using (var reader = new ExcelDataReader(#"test.xlsx"))
{
var cols = Enumerable.Range(0, reader.FieldCount).Select(i => reader.GetName(i)).ToArray();
DataHelper.CreateTableIfNotExists(ConnectionString, TableName, cols);
using (var bulkCopy = new SqlBulkCopy(ConnectionString))
{
// MSDN: When EnableStreaming is true, SqlBulkCopy reads from an IDataReader object using SequentialAccess,
// optimizing memory usage by using the IDataReader streaming capabilities
bulkCopy.EnableStreaming = true;
bulkCopy.DestinationTableName = TableName;
foreach (var col in cols)
bulkCopy.ColumnMappings.Add(col, col);
bulkCopy.WriteToServer(reader);
}
}
}

Try Using
string filename = Path.GetFileName(FileUploadControl.FileName);
Then Save the file at specified location using:
FileUploadControl.PostedFile.SaveAs(strpath + filename);

public async Task<HttpResponseMessage> PostFormDataAsync() //async is used for defining an asynchronous method
{
if (!Request.Content.IsMimeMultipartContent())
{
throw new HttpResponseException(HttpStatusCode.UnsupportedMediaType);
}
var fileLocation = "";
string root = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/App_Data");
MultipartFormDataStreamProvider provider = new MultipartFormDataStreamProvider(root); //Helps in HTML file uploads to write data to File Stream
try
{
// Read the form data.
await Request.Content.ReadAsMultipartAsync(provider);
// This illustrates how to get the file names.
foreach (MultipartFileData file in provider.FileData)
{
Trace.WriteLine(file.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName); //Gets the file name
var filePath = file.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName.Substring(1, file.Headers.ContentDisposition.FileName.Length - 2); //File name without the path
File.Copy(file.LocalFileName, file.LocalFileName + filePath); //Save a copy for reading it
fileLocation = file.LocalFileName + filePath; //Complete file location
}
HttpResponseMessage response = Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, recordStatus);
return response;
}
catch (System.Exception e)
{
return Request.CreateErrorResponse(HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError, e);
}
}
