Hi all,

Is it possible to read data from excel with the excel headers.
i.e In Excel, we are having frozen row(A,B,C..) and columns(1,2,3,4).

Now I can read the excel the data and bind with datagrid. But the frozen columns are generating with F1,F2..

I want to read the data from excel along with excel headers directly to bind with data gridview.

Pl anyone help me in this??

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Mohana.

Hi Mohana,
Following is the code-

C#

OleDbConnection theConnection = new OleDbConnection("provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;data source=book1.xls;Extended Properties=\"Excel 8.0;HDR=NO;IMEX=1;\"");
theConnection.Open();
OleDbDataAdapter theDataAdapter = new OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]", theConnection);
DataSet theDS = new DataSet();
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
theDataAdapter.Fill(dt);
this.dataGridView1.DataSource = dt.DefaultView;

Set HDR=YES in connection string.

HDR=YES sets only the first row of excel to header. Not the excel header(A,B,C..) and columns(1,2,3..)
