NPOI with Excel Table and dynamic Chart (www.leniel.net)

submitted by leniel(415) 3 months, 29 days ago

NPOI is a great open source project that enables us to create Excel spreadsheets in code using Microsoft .Net Framework. A reader of my blog commented on the post titled Creating Excel spreadsheets .XLS and .XLSX in C# about a problem he was having to get NPOI working with an Excel table bound to a chart. The chart should get updated whenever new data is inserted into the table. NPOI doesn't achieve what the user desires at first but in this post I experiment a workaround to the problem so that you can use NPOI to insert new data on a template spreadsheet that has a table bound to chart.

Creating Excel spreadsheets .XLS and .XLSX in C# - ASP.NET MVC Project (www.leniel.net)

submitted by leniel(415) 7 months, 7 days ago

Recently I had to implement some code to create an Excel spreadsheet/report using C#. The task was: given an Excel spreadsheet template - a .XLS file (with formulas, pivot tables, macros, etc) I had to fill some data in one of the sheets of the spreadsheet and send this modified spreadsheet back to the user requesting such an operation (Excel report). I had a great time while studying the possible ways of doing what the task asks for. In this article I present an ASP.NET MVC project that shows you how to create an .XLS file using NPOI and an .XLSX file using ExcelPackage. read more...

Report a Bug – The feature all products should have (blog.decayingcode.com)

submitted by arch4ngel(540) 9 months, 27 days ago

I was writing acceptance test for project today and I needed to include a file inside my Excel 2007 sheet. After fiddling around a little, I found “Insert Object”. This allowed me to insert a file and have it available to anyone opening the Excel 2007 document. When I dragged and dropped the file to my desktop, the file was truncated! I couldn’t believe it! I found a bug in Excel 2007! Being a developer, I wanted to properly report that bug. read more...

If they want their development tools to be the tools to develop with and they want Windows to be the platform to deploy solutions on (open source and otherwise), then they need to consider, very carefully, how they expect to achieve that. You’ve got to do more than release open source software . . . read more...
