The problem here is you're dealing with a Table object which specifically:
Displays a table on a Web page.
and does not in any way represent an Excel 'table' or anything else.
Claiming it is an Excel file by modifying the response headers only tricks the browser, you do not have a valid Excel file

I want to create an hyperlink to a cell in Excel sheet while I am doing export to cell in C# MVC 5, I am using grid view to export to Excel.
I have used anchor tag to create link, when the files gets exported it read that field as string.
What is the other way to achieve this?
Below is what I have tried:
var result = from cssd in csdvm.FillControlStatusDetails.AsEnumerable()
select new
{
link = "<a href='www.google.com'> Link</a>
}
GridView gvExport = new GridView();
gvExport.AutoGenerateColumns = false;
BoundField nameColumn = new BoundField();
nameColumn.DataField = "link";
nameColumn.HeaderText = "Link";
gvExport.Columns.Add(nameColumn);
gvExport.DataSource = result.AsQueryable().ToList();
gvExport.DataBind();
gen.CreateExportHeaderRow(gvExport, "Control Status - Details");
Response.Clear();
Response.Buffer = true;
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=ControlStatusDeatils-" + DateTime.Now.ToFileTimeUtc() + ".xls");
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.xls";
Response.Charset = "";
System.IO.StringWriter sw = new System.IO.StringWriter();
System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter htw = new System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter(sw);
gvExport.RenderControl(htw);
Response.Output.Write(sw.ToString());
Response.Flush();
Response.End();
Thank you i found the way out..i used a for loop to add the link below is what is did
for (int i = 0; i < gvExport.Rows.Count; i++)
var link = "<a href='" + gvExport.Rows[i].Cells[9].Text + "'>" + gvExport.Rows[i].Cells[10].Text+ "</a>" + "<br/>";
}
gvExport.Rows[i].Cells[9].Text = MvcHtmlString.Create(link).ToHtmlString();
using above code i am able to give an hyper link to an Excel cell while i am doing export to excel

Actually our requirement was need to export data to Excel or PDF then we realize best is PDF according to over requirements so I tried ItextSharp it's work out to me this my code
public string generatePDF()
{
string HTML = ""; ///Create a html as per our need
HTML += "<html>";
///Update the html here
HTML += "</html>";
string pdf_file_path = Request.PhysicalApplicationPath + "pdf\\quotations\\"; //getting physical application path for save the pdf
string final_name = "Here pdf name";
PdfWriter wri = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream(pdf_file_path + final_name, FileMode.Create));
wri.PageEvent = new ITextEvents();
doc.Open();
var content = wri.DirectContent;
content.MoveTo(28, doc.PageSize.Height - 150);
content.LineTo(28, doc.PageSize.Height - 200);
content.Stroke(); //generating line
content.MoveTo(573, doc.PageSize.Height - 150);
content.LineTo(573, doc.PageSize.Height - 200);
content.Stroke();
HTMLWorker htmlworker = new HTMLWorker(doc); //here we have to pass created instance of pdfWritter
htmlworker.SetStyleSheet(style);
htmlworker.Parse(new StringReader(HTML)); ///here pass the created HTML what we have need in the PDF
doc.NewPage();
doc.Close();
var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(final_name, Newtonsoft.Json.Formatting.Indented, common.JsonSerializeSettings());
return json; // retruning the file name
Response.Write(doc);
Response.End();
}
Above code is worked to me. Finally I'm returning the file name and showing the PDF in browser using the JavaScript
I'm using the below code to export the gridview to excel. When I export the contents are appearing fine with no problems, but I am getting a control label like System.WebControls.UI.Style this in my first cell in A1 cell.

To hide the first column or the first row (A1), just count the current row/column iteration and intercept the first and hide the A1 cell.

cellCounter = 0;
rowCounter++;

Im having trouble executing codes after Response.End().
Im using this to export a datatable/ASP Table to MS Excel(.xls).
The export finishes but my Gridview is not loading anymore. The command that I use to load the gridview is written after Response.End().
I tried using HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.CompleteRequest(); but it did not help.
I tried also Response.Redirect("Charges_Trs.aspx", false); still did not work..
Any help please..Here is my code
lblNotif.Text = "Selected items have been posted. Exporting XLS ... (will be saved in your desktop)";
exportToExcel(dt); //calls the function to export the datatable to excel, i passed dt=datatable to this function
timerNotif.Enabled = true;
btnSearch_Click(null, null); //called the event of a button that loads the gridview
here is the function exporttoexcel()
public void exportToExcel(DataTable dt)
{
Table dTable = new Table();
TableRow dTableRow = new TableRow();
//Column Headings
for (int i = 0; i < dt.Columns.Count; i++)
{
TableCell tCell = new TableCell();
tCell.Text = dt.Columns[i].ToString();
dTableRow.Cells.Add(tCell);
}
dTable.Rows.Add(dTableRow);
//Rows
for (int i = 0; i < dt.Rows.Count; i++)
{
dTableRow = new TableRow();
for (int j = 0; j < dt.Columns.Count; j++)
{

This it what it looks
but this is what i looks when i export it to excel :(
The only way to save date format is to pre-format the date field as text and then export to excel. To do this,
string style = #"<style> TD { mso-number-format:\#; } </style> ";
Response.write(style);
//Code to Export Control
Panel1.RenderControl(htmlWrite);
