Could someone point me in the right direction on how to read a Excel spreasheet, loop through all the rows and columns to retreive value using EPPlus and MVC? So fare I see examples to create a spreasheet, but did not find any on opening an excel file and read values from it. Any help would be appreciated.
TIA
Sue..
Simple example
// Get the file we are going to process
var existingFile = new FileInfo(filePath);
// Open and read the XlSX file.
using (var package = new ExcelPackage(existingFile))
{
// Get the work book in the file
var workBook = package.Workbook;
if (workBook != null)
{
if (workBook.Worksheets.Count > 0)
{
// Get the first worksheet
var currentWorksheet = workBook.Worksheets.First();
// read some data
object col1Header = currentWorksheet.Cells[1, 1].Value;
A simple example how you can read excel file using EPPlus in .net 4.5
public void readXLS(string FilePath)
{
FileInfo existingFile = new FileInfo(FilePath);
using (ExcelPackage package = new ExcelPackage(existingFile))
{
//get the first worksheet in the workbook
ExcelWorksheet worksheet = package.Workbook.Worksheets[1];
int colCount = worksheet.Dimension.End.Column; //get Column Count
int rowCount = worksheet.Dimension.End.Row; //get row count
for (int row = 1; row <= rowCount; row++)
{
for (int col = 1; col <= colCount; col++)
{
Console.WriteLine(" Row:" + row + " column:" + col + " Value:" + worksheet.Cells[row, col].Value.ToString().Trim());
}
}
}
}
