Hi!
this code i have written becuase i donot find any soltions on net for this , u can try with this . :)
System.Data.OleDb.
OleDbConnection ExcelConnection = null;
FileMode fileMode;
string filePath = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["TempLoaction"] + "\\" + fileName;
using (SPSite _site = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Web.Url))
using (SPWeb _web = _site.OpenWeb())
string docLibrary = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["DocumentLibrary"];
SPFile _file = _web.GetFile("/" + docLibrary + "/" + fileName);
fileMode =
FileMode.Create;
byte[] byteArray = _file.OpenBinary();
MemoryStream dataStream = new MemoryStream(byteArray);
Stream stream = dataStream;
using (FileStream fs = File.Open(filePath, fileMode))
byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
int bytesRead;
while ((bytesRead = stream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) != 0)
fs.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
fs.Close();
//Create the Connection String
try
string ConnectionString = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;
Data Source ='"
+ filePath + "'; Extended Properties=Excel 5.0";
//Create the connection
ExcelConnection =
new System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(ConnectionString);
//create a string for the query
string ExcelQuery;
//Sheet1 is the sheet name
//create the query:
//read columns from the Excel file
ExcelQuery =
"Select * from [Sheet1$]"; // from Sheet1";
//use "Select * ... " to select the entire sheet
//create the command
System.Data.OleDb.
OleDbCommand ExcelCommand = new System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand(ExcelQuery, ExcelConnection);
//Open the connection
ExcelConnection.Open();
//Create a reader
System.Data.OleDb.
OleDbDataReader ExcelReader;
ExcelReader = ExcelCommand.ExecuteReader();
//For each row after the first
while (ExcelReader.Read())
