Installation

PM> Install-Package FastExcel

Write Demo 1

This demo uses Generic objects, ie any object you wish with public properties

using (FastExcel.FastExcel fastExcel = new FastExcel.FastExcel(outputFile))
{
    List<MyObject> objectList = new List<MyObject>();

    for (int rowNumber = 1; rowNumber < NumberOfRecords; rowNumber++)
    {
        MyObject genericObject = new MyObject();
        genericObject.StringColumn1 = "A string " + rowNumber.ToString();
        genericObject.IntegerColumn2 = 45678854;
        genericObject.DoubleColumn3 = 87.01d;
        genericObject.ObjectColumn4 = DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString();

        objectList.Add(genericObject);
    }
    fastExcel.Write(objectList, "sheet3", true);
}

Write Demo 2

This demo lets you specify exactly which cell you are writing to

// Get your template and output file paths
FileInfo templateFile = new FileInfo("Template.xlsx");
FileInfo outputFile = new FileInfo("C:\\Temp\\output.xlsx");

//Create a worksheet with some rows
Worksheet worksheet = new Worksheet();
List<Row> rows = new List<Row>();
for (int rowNumber = 1; rowNumber < 100000; rowNumber++)
{
    List<Cell> cells = new List<Cell>();
    for (int columnNumber = 1; columnNumber < 13; columnNumber++)
    {
        cells.Add(new Cell(columnNumber, columnNumber * DateTime.Now.Millisecond));
    }
    cells.Add(new Cell(13, "Hello" + rowNumber));
    cells.Add(new Cell(14, "Some Text"));
 
    rows.Add(new Row(rowNumber, cells));
}
worksheet.Rows = rows;


// Create an instance of FastExcel
using (FastExcel.FastExcel fastExcel = new FastExcel.FastExcel(templateFile, outputFile))
{
    // Write the data
    fastExcel.Write(worksheet, "sheet1");
}

Read Demo 1 Get Worksheet

// Get the input file paths
FileInfo inputFile = new FileInfo("C:\\Temp\\input.xlsx");

//Create a worksheet
DataSet worksheet = null;

// Create an instance of Fast Excel
using (FastExcel.FastExcel fastExcel = new FastExcel.FastExcel(inputFile, true))
{
    // Read the rows using worksheet name
    worksheet = fastExcel.Read("sheet1");

    // Read the rows using the worksheet index
    // Worksheet indexes are start at 1 not 0
    // This method is slightly faster to find the underlying file (so slight you probably wouldn't notice)
    worksheet = fastExcel.Read(1);
}

Read Demo 2 Get All Worksheets

// Get the input file paths
FileInfo inputFile = new FileInfo("C:\\Temp\\fileToRead.xlsx");

// Create an instance of Fast Excel
using (FastExcel.FastExcel fastExcel = new FastExcel.FastExcel(inputFile, true))
{
    foreach (var worksheet in fastExcel.Worksheets)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Worksheet Name:{0}, Index:{1}", worksheet.Name, worksheet.Index));
        
        //To read the rows call read
        worksheet.Read();
        var rows = worksheet.Rows.ToArray();
        //Do something with rows
        Console.WriteLine(string.Format("Worksheet Rows:{0}", rows.Count()));
    }
}

Update Demo

// Get the input file paths
FileInfo inputFile = new FileInfo("C:\\Temp\\input.xlsx");

//Create a some rows in a worksheet
Worksheet worksheet = new Worksheet();
List<Row> rows = new List<Row>();
                
for (int rowNumber = 1; rowNumber < NumberOfRecords; rowNumber+= 50)
{
    List<Cell> cells = new List<Cell>();
    for (int columnNumber = 1; columnNumber < 13; columnNumber+= 2)
    {
        cells.Add(new Cell(columnNumber, rowNumber));
    }
    cells.Add(new Cell(13, "Updated Row"));

    rows.Add(new Row(rowNumber, cells));
}
worksheet.Rows = rows;

// Create an instance of Fast Excel
using (FastExcel.FastExcel fastExcel = new FastExcel.FastExcel(inputFile))
{
    // Read the data
    fastExcel.Update(worksheet, "sheet1");
}
