In this tutorial, C# developers learn how to add rows and columns to Excel using IronXL with Visual Studio 2022. The process begins by downloading IronXL from the NuGet Package Manager, ensuring the latest version for optimal performance. Developers load the Excel file using the workbook.load method and then manipulate the default worksheet. To add a column before Column B, the insert column method is used, while the insert columns method allows adding multiple columns. Similarly, rows are added using the insert row and insert rows methods. Removing a row involves getting the row with the get row method and then applying the remove row method. The tutorial emphasizes zero-based indexing for accurate placement. After modifications, the workbook is saved with a new file name using the save as method to preserve the original file. The tutorial concludes by demonstrating the successful execution of the code, showcasing the modified Excel file. This guide provides a comprehensive approach to Excel manipulation using C# and IronXL, ensuring a smooth and efficient process for developers.
