IronXL: C# Excel Library

IronXL is a C# Excel library that helps you make more robust spreadsheets. With IronXL, there are no limitations on the number of rows and columns in a spreadsheet. You can have as many rows and columns as you need without adding complex formulas for calculating column widths.

IronXL makes it possible to create workbooks with millions of rows and thousands of columns, which would not be possible without complex calculations or using any other spreadsheet software. With IronXL, there is no limit to the number of rows or columns in your spreadsheet, allowing you to design very high-dimensional models on a single sheet. IronXL is a complete library that will complete all Excel processes. Its fully kitted features will create and read Excel files in C#.

IronXL simplifies the number crunching and data analysis process by providing its users with powerful functions that they can use to work on the data without too much effort. We also do not need to install Microsoft Office on our machine.

The following section will describe how the library can be used to read and write Excel files in C#.

Code for creating Excel Files

Here is the code for creating an Excel file programmatically using the IronXL C# library.

using IronXL;

// Create a new Excel workbook in XLSX format
WorkBook workbook = WorkBook.Create(ExcelFileFormat.XLSX);

// Create a new worksheet named "example_sheet"
var sheet = workbook.CreateWorkSheet("example_sheet");

// Set value of a single cell
sheet["A1"].Value = "Example";

// Set value to multiple cells in a range
sheet["A2:A4"].Value = 5;

// Change background color of a cell
sheet["A5"].Style.SetBackgroundColor("#f0f0f0");

// Set style (bold font) to multiple cells in a range
sheet["A5:A6"].Style.Font.Bold = true;

// Set formula for cell A6
sheet["A6"].Value = "=SUM(A2:A4)";

// Verify if the value in A6 is the sum of the range A2:A4
if (sheet["A6"].IntValue == sheet["A2:A4"].IntValue)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Basic test passed");
}

// Save the workbook as "example_workbook.xlsx"
workbook.SaveAs("example_workbook.xlsx");

using IronXL;

// Create a new Excel workbook in XLSX format
WorkBook workbook = WorkBook.Create(ExcelFileFormat.XLSX);

// Create a new worksheet named "example_sheet"
var sheet = workbook.CreateWorkSheet("example_sheet");

// Set value of a single cell
sheet["A1"].Value = "Example";

// Set value to multiple cells in a range
sheet["A2:A4"].Value = 5;

// Change background color of a cell
sheet["A5"].Style.SetBackgroundColor("#f0f0f0");

// Set style (bold font) to multiple cells in a range
sheet["A5:A6"].Style.Font.Bold = true;

// Set formula for cell A6
sheet["A6"].Value = "=SUM(A2:A4)";

// Verify if the value in A6 is the sum of the range A2:A4
if (sheet["A6"].IntValue == sheet["A2:A4"].IntValue)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Basic test passed");
}

// Save the workbook as "example_workbook.xlsx"
workbook.SaveAs("example_workbook.xlsx");

Imports IronXL

' Create a new Excel workbook in XLSX format
Private workbook As WorkBook = WorkBook.Create(ExcelFileFormat.XLSX)

' Create a new worksheet named "example_sheet"
Private sheet = workbook.CreateWorkSheet("example_sheet")

' Set value of a single cell
Private sheet("A1").Value = "Example"

' Set value to multiple cells in a range
Private sheet("A2:A4").Value = 5

' Change background color of a cell
sheet("A5").Style.SetBackgroundColor("#f0f0f0")

' Set style (bold font) to multiple cells in a range
sheet("A5:A6").Style.Font.Bold = True

' Set formula for cell A6
sheet("A6").Value = "=SUM(A2:A4)"

' Verify if the value in A6 is the sum of the range A2:A4
If sheet("A6").IntValue = sheet("A2:A4").IntValue Then
	Console.WriteLine("Basic test passed")
End If

' Save the workbook as "example_workbook.xlsx"
workbook.SaveAs("example_workbook.xlsx")

In the following code, we import the IronXL library at the top of our program. We then initiate a WorkBook object to create a new Excel workbook in XLSX format. Next, we create a WorkSheet within the WorkBook using the CreateWorkSheet method, providing the worksheet's name as a parameter. It's possible to create multiple worksheets this way. Now, our Excel workbook and worksheet are ready to use.

Next, we enter data into the cells of the Excel worksheet. Cells can be accessed by their names, and the "Value" property is used to access or set cell values. Styles, such as font size and style, can be set for specific cells or ranges of cells. Formulas can also be defined for individual cells or cell ranges. Finally, we save our Excel file as "example_workbook.xlsx", which will be saved to the debug folder of our project.
