I am looking to programmatically pull data from an Excel worksheet and insert it into a database table.
How do I determine the number of columns and rows in a worksheet or otherwise iterate the rows?
I have
Excel._Worksheet worksheet = (Excel._Worksheet)workbook.ActiveSheet;
I tried worksheet.Range.Rows.Count
which tosses up
Indexed property 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Worksheet.Range' has
non-optional arguments which must be provided
What needs to be done?
I presume you are actually looking for the last used row. In that case you need to write it like this:
Range UsedRange = worksheet.UsedRange;
int lastUsedRow = UsedRange.Row + UsedRange.Rows.Count - 1;
public void IterateRows(Excel.worksheet worksheet)
{
//Get the used Range
Excel.Range usedRange = worksheet.UsedRange;
//Iterate the rows in the used range
foreach(Excel.Range row in usedRange.Rows)
{
//Do something with the row.
//Ex. Iterate through the row's data and put in a string array
String[] rowData = new String[row.Columns.Count];
for(int i = 0; i < row.Columns.Count; i++)
rowData[i] = row.Cells[1, i + 1].Value2.ToString();
}
}
This compiles and runs just great for me! I'm using it to extract rows with missing fields to an error log.
Have a look at the UsedRange property in Excel.
