Convert Excel Cell Value From Text To Number Using C# - c#

I am using Windows Application. In that Application i exported the DataGrid into Excel Successfully... Now the problem is , When i exported from Grid to the Excel Sheet, The cell values are having some green color mark on left top corner in the Excel Sheet... I thought that is type cast problem . How Shall i avoid that Problem.... and How to change the cell value from text to Number ...(i.e)Convert To Number....
Can Anyone tell me the solution of this problem?
My Code for Formatting That Excel Sheet For Some Range of Values,
wksheet.Range[GetRanges[0].ToString(), GetRanges[GetRanges.Count-2].ToString()].Merge();
wksheet.get_Range(GetRanges[0].ToString(), GetRanges[GetRanges.Count-].ToString()).Interior.Color = Color.FromArgb(192, 0, 0);

I haven't a Windows machine to test on at the moment, but perhaps you would want to try changing the cell format, e.g.:
my_range.NumberFormat = "0.0"; // change number of decimal places as needed
Here's a full example from Microsoft: How to automate Microsoft Excel from Microsoft Visual C#.NET.

The following routine will dynamically fill a spreadsheet from data (text and numbers) in a text file.
The kicker is using an object array to set the values.
StreamReader STRead;
String[] STCells;
object[] cellData;
int temp;
Excel.Range tempRange;
for (int i = 0; i < FileList.Length; i++)
{
STRead = FileList[i].OpenText();
int j = 0;
while (!STRead.EndOfStream)
{
STCells = STRead.ReadLine().Split(',');
cellData = new object[STCells.Length];
for (int k = 0; k < STCells.Length; k++)
{
if (Int32.TryParse(STCells[k], out temp))
cellData[k] = temp;
else
cellData[k] = STCells[k];
}
tempRange = sheetList[i].get_Range(ReturnCellID(j, 0),
ReturnCellID(j, STCells.Length - 1));
j++;
tempRange.Value2 = cellData;
}
STRead.Close();
}

I had this problem with a excel sheet containing both regular numbers and percent (a result of an export of strings from a Crystal Report).
To change all of them at once I made a loop somewhat like this:
//example range
Excel.Range rng = mWorkSheet.get_Range("A1", "H25");
foreach (Excel.Range range in rng)
{
if (range.Value != null)
{
int number;
bool isNumber = int.TryParse(range.Value.ToString().Trim(), out number);
if (isNumber)
{
range.NumberFormat = "#,##0";
range.Value = number;
}
else
{
//the percent values were decimals with commas in the string
string temp = range.Value.ToString();
temp = temp.Replace(",", ".");
range.Value = temp;
}
}
}
Result was that both the percentage strings and the numbers got converted into the correct Excel format.

When you assign the value to the cells, try to get all the values in an 2 dimensional array first and then assign the array to the Range. this way its going to be very fast and also i guess the values in the cell will be number. try it out ...hopefully it should work

Change the cell value from text to Number is easy with Excel Jet Cell .NET component.
Cell["A1"].Style.StringFormat = "##.#"; // or "0.0" same as in MS Excel

Writing into word document with different font sizes, etc

I am trying to pick string values from different Excel worksheets and write it into Word. However, each text line will have different font size, bold and underline.
I managed to pull all values into Word with StringBuilder, however I am not able to format each line way I wanted, therefore trying to make other solution without StringBuilder.
Please see code below. Unfortunately, the end result has only the last row of Excel sheet value.
Anyone has idea, what I can do here:
for (int c = 0; c < aList.Count; c++)
{
Worksheet excelWorksheet = excelWorkbook.Worksheets[aList[c]];
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range lastRow = excelWorksheet.Cells.SpecialCells(XlCellType.xlCellTypeLastCell);
int lastUsedRow = lastRow.Row;
currentItemNumber = "Item " + (c + 1).ToString();
docRange.Text = currentItemNumber;
docRange.Font.Bold = 1;
docRange.Font.Size = 12;
docRange.Font.Underline = (WdUnderline)1;
docWholeRange.Text = docRange.Text;
for (int d = 0; d < lastUsedRow; d++)
{
if (d == 0)
{
currentRowValue = excelWorksheet.Range["A" + (d + 1)].Value2 + "\t" + excelWorksheet.Range["D"+(d+1)].Value2;
docRange.Text = currentRowValue;
docRange.Font.Bold = 0;
docRange.Font.Size = 12;
docRange.Font.Underline = (WdUnderline)0;
docWholeRange.Text = docWholeRange.Text + docRange.Text;
}
else
{
currentRowValue = excelWorksheet.Range["A" + (d + 1)].Value2+ excelWorksheet.Range["B" + (d + 1)].Value2+ excelWorksheet.Range["C" + (d + 1)].Value2;
docRange.Text = currentRowValue;
docRange.Font.Bold = 0;
docRange.Font.Size = 10;
docRange.Font.Underline = (WdUnderline)0;
docWholeRange.Text = docWholeRange.Text + docRange.Text;
}
}
wordDocument.Bookmarks.Add(bookmarkPlace, docWholeRange);
}
I tried using StringBuilder, however it is not possible to format each line separately and keep it formatted.
Then tried using Selection object in similar manner as shown in code and then tried to use Selection.TypeText. Instead of being entered at Bookmark place, it was actually starting from the beginning of word file. The size of the letter was way too small.
Managed to get all lines correctly to be written in Word without using StringBuilder.
However, trying to get all text lines between two bookmarks and all samples advising to use Bookmarks.get_Item and this does not exists in Visual Studio 2019 and C#.
Anyone has idea, how to store it into Range?
Tried following:
object start = bm.Range.End;
object end = ebm.Range.Start;
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Range textRange = wordDocument.Range(ref start, ref end);
bm and ebm are two bookmarks.
I am trying to store all text line into range, then iterate line by line and change font size/bold in each text line.
Anyone has better idea how it can be done.

EPPLUS multiple columns configuration and conditional formatting in Excel C#

In my tool, user can choose one configuration (through combobox->multiple datatable) and the respective table will reflect in the excel sheet as per below.Columns (data in rows will differ) that will remain the same for all configuration are Product Name, Serial Name and Length 1 and Total Length. Different configuration will have added columns such as Length 2, Length 3,Length 4 (user will add the data in these rows)etc.
I want to add conditional formatting formula in Total Length column where background cell will turn green if it is in range (minval to maxval) and red when it is out of range. I am stuck with my code without solution.It did not change any color when the user add the data in the excel. Help. Thanks!
Table
private void ManualFormatExcelandAddRules(ExcelWorksheet WS, DataTable DTtoFormat, int ColStartAddOfDT, int RowStartAddOfDT)
{
int colCountofDT = DTtoFormat.Columns.Count;
int rowCountofDT = DTtoFormat.Rows.Count;
double minval = 0;
double maxval = 0;
int flag = 0;
for (int Colno = ColStartAddOfDT; Colno < ColStartAddOfDT + colCountofDT; Colno++)
{
WS.Cells[RowStartAddOfDT, Colno].Style.Border.BorderAround(ExcelBorderStyle.Thin);
for (int RowNo = RowStartAddOfDT + 1; RowNo <= RowStartAddOfDT + rowCountofDT; RowNo++)
{ if (WS.Cells[RowNo, Colno].Text.Contains("to") && WS.Cells[RowNo, ColStartAddOfDT].Text.Contains("DRAM"))
{
string[] GuidelineVal = WS.Cells[RowNo, Colno].Text.Split("to".ToArray(), StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries).ToArray();
if (GuidelineVal[0].Trim() != "NA" && GuidelineVal[1].Trim() != "NA")
{
minval = Convert.ToDouble(GuidelineVal[0].Trim());
maxval = Convert.ToDouble(GuidelineVal[1].Trim());
flag = 0;
}
else
flag = 1;
}
else if (WS.Cells[RowNo, Colno].Text == "" && WS.Cells[RowStartAddOfDT + 1, Colno].Text.Contains("to"))
{
if (flag == 0)
{
string _statement = "AND(Convert.ToDouble(WS.Cells[RowNo, Colno].Text) >= minval,Convert.ToDouble(WS.Cells[RowNo, Colno].Text) <= maxval)";
var _cond = WS.ConditionalFormatting.AddExpression(WS.Cells[RowNo, Colno]);
_cond.Formula = _statement;
_cond.Style.Fill.PatternType = OfficeOpenXml.Style.ExcelFillStyle.Solid;
_cond.Style.Fill.BackgroundColor.Color = Color.Green;
}
else
WS.Cells[RowNo, Colno].Style.Fill.BackgroundColor.SetColor(Color.Red);
WS.Cells[RowNo, Colno].Style.Border.BorderAround(ExcelBorderStyle.Thin);
}
}
}
The conditional formatting expression you use is wrong/contains syntax errors/uses functions that don't exist and that makes that Excel will ignore it as it doesn't understand what it needs to do.
Looking at your code you have 4 variables that make up that expression:
RowNo and ColNo to indicate the cell to apply the conditional formattig to
minval and maxval to be the lower and upper bound of the condition
The following code uses those variables to build up the correct expression:
string _statement = string.Format(
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
"AND({0}>={1},{0}<={2})",
new OfficeOpenXml.ExcelCellAddress(RowNo, ColNo).Address,
minval,
maxval );
var _cond = WS.ConditionalFormatting.AddExpression(WS.Cells[RowNo, ColNo]);
_cond.Style.Fill.PatternType = OfficeOpenXml.Style.ExcelFillStyle.Solid;
_cond.Style.Fill.BackgroundColor.Color = Color.Green;
_cond.Formula = _statement;
Notice that the expression uses only valid Excel functions. You can't mixin .Net statements like Convert.ToDouble. It is also important to use the InvariantCulture for the number conversion, otherwise the separators might get interpreted as an extra parameter in your function.
When you debug this _statement will contain this: AND(A2>=40.2,A2<=44.5) and when applied to the A2 cell, that works as advertised.

Formula in Excel - Logarithmic Average

I need to implement this equation:
In c# it is pretty straightforward:
static double LogarithmicSummed(IReadOnlyList<double> values)
{
double outVal = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < values.Count; i++)
{
outVal = outVal + Math.Pow(10, values[i] / 10);
}
return 10 * Math.Log10(outVal);
}
I need to verify the data in an excel sheet where I print out the data programmatically. That is the raw data, my c# calculations on the raw data AND the excel formual that should match my c# calculations. I just do not know how to write the formula in excel.
I know the rows and columns where the data are and they are next to each other. So for example, if I needed the arithmetic average, ie:
I could print out for each row:
// If row = 1, startColumn = A, endColumn = D, noOfColumn = 4. This would print: =SUM(A1:D1)/4
mean[row] = #"=SUM(" + startColumn + row + ":" + endColumn + row + ")/" + noOfColumns;
What would I print out to match the first formula I wrote? Or what would I need to write in Excel?
without VBA:
Put your data in A1 through A10 and in B1 enter:
=10^(A1/10)
and copy down. Then in another cell enter:
=10*LOG10(SUM(B1:B10))
You can avoid the "helper" column (column B) by using:
=10*LOG10(SUMPRODUCT(10^((A1:A10)/10)))
If that's how you enter your formulas, then why not use the literal form of the sum? Ie use a for loop over the columns and fill in:
10*log(10^(A1/10)+10^(A2/10)+10^(A3/10)+10^(A4/10))

Excel Open xml sdk - Copy formula between cells with range modification

I have a cell with formula (CellFormula). I don't know the formula content (Might be Sum, ifs or any other calculation).
The formula might include range.
When you drag the cell to other cells (manually at excel application itself) the formula range get updated.
I want the formula programatic copy to behave the same way.
If the formula contains range specifiers I want to update them to the current row.
Is there some built-in way to do so without regular expression manipulations?
I don't know if it's a good solution that cover all possibilities but...
//Formula update
if (cloneFromCell.CellFormula != null && (cloneFromCell.CellFormula.FormulaType == null || !cloneFromCell.CellFormula.FormulaType.HasValue || cloneFromCell.CellFormula.FormulaType.Value == CellFormulaValues.Normal))
{
uint cloneRowIndex = OXMLTools.GetRowIndex(cloneFromCell.CellReference);
uint offset = rowIndex - cloneRowIndex;
exCell.CellFormula.Text = OXMLTools.GetUpdatedFormulaToNewRow(cloneFromCell.CellFormula.Text, offset);
}
public static string GetUpdatedFormulaToNewRow(string formula, uint offset)
{
return Regex.Replace(formula, #"[A-Za-z]+\d+", delegate(Match match)
{
//Calculate the new row for this cell in the formula by the given offset
uint oldRow = GetRowIndex(match.Value);
string col = GetColumnName(match.Value);
uint newRow = oldRow + offset;
//Create the new reference for this cell
string newRef = col + newRow;
return newRef;
});
}

Import Rich Text Data From Excel Sheet Using c#

I want to import data from excel sheet with richtext i.e. font family
But I can get only bold and italic style using below given code
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range Range = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range)Cell;
int TextLength = Range.Text.ToString().Length;
for (int CharCount = 1; CharCount <= TextLength; CharCount++)
{
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Characters charToTest = Range.get_Characters(CharCount, 1);
bool IsBold = (bool)charToTest.Font.Bold;
bool IsItalic = (bool)charToTest.Font.Italic;
// other formatting tests here
}
Can anybody help me to get the rich text data from Excel Sheet using Interop or any other method in c#.net
Thanks in advance
How about:
Range someRange = activeWorksheet.Range["A1", "A1"];
var fontFamily = someRange.Font.Name;
