I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and I need create a DataTable from a Excel Sheet using the Open XML SDK 2.0. I need to create it with the DataTable columns with the first row of the sheet and complete it with the rest of values.
Does anyone have a example code or a link that can help me to do this?
I think this should do what you're asking. The other function is there just to deal with if you have shared strings, which I assume you do in your column headers. Not sure this is perfect, but I hope it helps.
static void Main(string[] args)
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
using (SpreadsheetDocument spreadSheetDocument = SpreadsheetDocument.Open(@"..\..\example.xlsx", false))
{
WorkbookPart workbookPart = spreadSheetDocument.WorkbookPart;
IEnumerable<Sheet> sheets = spreadSheetDocument.WorkbookPart.Workbook.GetFirstChild<Sheets>().Elements<Sheet>();
string relationshipId = sheets.First().Id.Value;
WorksheetPart worksheetPart = (WorksheetPart)spreadSheetDocument.WorkbookPart.GetPartById(relationshipId);
Worksheet workSheet = worksheetPart.Worksheet;
SheetData sheetData = workSheet.GetFirstChild<SheetData>();
IEnumerable<Row> rows = sheetData.Descendants<Row>();
foreach (Cell cell in rows.ElementAt(0))
{
dt.Columns.Add(GetCellValue(spreadSheetDocument, cell));
}
foreach (Row row in rows) //this will also include your header row...
{
DataRow tempRow = dt.NewRow();
for (int i = 0; i < row.Descendants<Cell>().Count(); i++)
{
tempRow[i] = GetCellValue(spreadSheetDocument, row.Descendants<Cell>().ElementAt(i-1));
}
dt.Rows.Add(tempRow);
}
}
dt.Rows.RemoveAt(0); //...so i'm taking it out here.
}
public static string GetCellValue(SpreadsheetDocument document, Cell cell)
{
SharedStringTablePart stringTablePart = document.WorkbookPart.SharedStringTablePart;
string value = cell.CellValue.InnerXml;
if (cell.DataType != null && cell.DataType.Value == CellValues.SharedString)
{
return stringTablePart.SharedStringTable.ChildElements[Int32.Parse(value)].InnerText;
}
else
{
return value;
}
}
tempRow. Also in some cases CellValue is null and I get an exception in GetCellValue's second line. –
Ferne Hi The above code is working fine except one change
replace the below line of code
tempRow[i] = GetCellValue(spreadSheetDocument, row.Descendants<Cell>().ElementAt(i-1));
with
tempRow[i] = GetCellValue(spreadSheetDocument, row.Descendants<Cell>().ElementAt(i));
If you use (i-1) it will throw an exception:
specified argument was out of the range of valid values. parameter name index.
This solution works for spreadsheets without empty cells.
To handle empty cells, you will need to replace this line:
tempRow[i] = GetCellValue(spreadSheetDocument, row.Descendants<Cell>().ElementAt(i-1));
with something like this:
Cell cell = row.Descendants<Cell>().ElementAt(i);
int index = CellReferenceToIndex(cell);
tempRow[index] = GetCellValue(spreadSheetDocument, cell);
And add this method:
private static int CellReferenceToIndex(Cell cell)
{
int index = -1;
string reference = cell.CellReference.ToString().ToUpper();
foreach (char ch in reference)
{
if (Char.IsLetter(ch))
{
int value = (int)ch - (int)'A';
index = (index + 1) * 26 + value;
}
else
return index;
}
return index;
}
(index == 0) ? value : ((index + 1) * 26) + value => will return incorrect results for multichar indexes starting from A, like AA, AB, AAC etc, as A value would be transformed into 0 instead of 26 multiplier –
Shoop This is my complete solution where empty cell is also taken into consideration.
public static class ExcelHelper
{
//To get the value of the cell, even it's empty. Unable to use loop by index
private static string GetCellValue(WorkbookPart wbPart, List<Cell> theCells, string cellColumnReference)

break;
}
}

{
value = theCell.InnerText;
// If the cell represents an integer number, you are done.
// For dates, this code returns the serialized value that represents the date. The code handles strings and
// Booleans individually. For shared strings, the code looks up the corresponding value in the shared string table. For Booleans, the code converts the value into the words TRUE or FALSE.
if (theCell.DataType != null)
{

{
case CellValues.SharedString:
// For shared strings, look up the value in the shared strings table.
var stringTable = wbPart.GetPartsOfType<SharedStringTablePart>().FirstOrDefault();

First Add ExcelUtility.cs to your project :
ExcelUtility.cs
using System.Data;
using System.Linq;

var dt = new DataTable();
using (var ssDoc = SpreadsheetDocument.Open(path, false))
{
var sheets = ssDoc.WorkbookPart.Workbook.GetFirstChild<Sheets>().Elements<Sheet>();
var relationshipId = sheets.First().Id.Value;
var worksheetPart = (WorksheetPart) ssDoc.WorkbookPart.GetPartById(relationshipId);
var workSheet = worksheetPart.Worksheet;
var sheetData = workSheet.GetFirstChild<SheetData>();
var rows = sheetData.Descendants<Row>().ToList();
foreach (var row in rows) //this will also include your header row...
{
var tempRow = dt.NewRow();
var colCount = row.Descendants<Cell>().Count();
foreach (var cell in row.Descendants<Cell>())
{
var index = GetIndex(cell.CellReference);
// Add Columns
for (var i = dt.Columns.Count; i <= index; i++)
dt.Columns.Add();
tempRow[index] = GetCellValue(ssDoc, cell);
}
dt.Rows.Add(tempRow);
}
}
return dt;
}
private static string GetCellValue(SpreadsheetDocument document, Cell cell)
{
var stringTablePart = document.WorkbookPart.SharedStringTablePart;
var value = cell.CellValue.InnerXml;
if (cell.DataType != null && cell.DataType.Value == CellValues.SharedString)
return stringTablePart.SharedStringTable.ChildElements[int.Parse(value)].InnerText;
return value;
}
public static int GetIndex(string name)
{
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(name))
return -1;
int index = 0;
foreach (var ch in name)
{
if (char.IsLetter(ch))
{
int value = ch - 'A' + 1;
index = value + index * 26;
}
else
break;
}
return index - 1;
}
}
}
Usage :
var path = "D:\\Documents\\test.xlsx";
var dt = ExcelUtility.Read(path);
then enjoy it!

I know it is a long time ago since this thread started. However, none of the solutions above did not really work for me. Empty cells issue and others.
I found a very good solution with 'MIT' license on GitHub: https://github.com/ExcelDataReader/ExcelDataReader This worked for me for both C# and VBnet applications. Sample call from VBNET (the sample code for c# is on GitHub) :
Using stream As FileStream = New FileStream(DataPath & "\" & fName.Name, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.ReadWrite)
Using reader As IExcelDataReader = ExcelReaderFactory.CreateReader(stream)
ds = reader.AsDataSet(New ExcelDataSetConfiguration() With {
.UseColumnDataType = False,
.ConfigureDataTable = Function(tableReader) New ExcelDataTableConfiguration() With {
.UseHeaderRow = True
}
})
End Using
End Using
The result was a dataset with one table for each sheet in the workbook.
An I really like to compile the dll made in C# by myself rather then using a ready dll. So I can control what I am delivering to customers.
As per my requirements, I have modified few part of code of 'ExcelUtility' Read() from the best answer by D.L.MAN.
Also added saveDataTablesToExcel() and ExportDataSet() method to save multiple DataTables in xlsx file.
Following is the full code of new 'ExcelUtility' class and it's usage.
