Created Issue: ExcelColumn.Width parsing error [33665]

Ardhad — Tue, 15 Jan 2013 13:58:34 GMT

While trying to get column width, which is not integer (eg. 40.25), I got FormatException - it is raised because Width getter contains "int.Parse" instead of "double.Parse". I think that changing that line would solve the problem.

Commented Issue: Number formats and datatypes [32126]

domeniconeri — Tue, 03 Jul 2012 13:23:07 GMT

Hello,

After opening created file by excel itself, I see that numeric areas are seen as text instead of numeric so orderings are not working properly. User needs to update these cells definitions to numeric himself. I guess I need to set cell's datatype by coding it by what should I write as cell.datatype?

I think the reason to that is decimal sign is ',' instead of '.' beucase of the server's regional settings or something like that. So it sees it as text.

Thank you for your help already.

Just replace the comma with a dot in your decimal number converted in string.

Commented Issue: File contains corrupted data [13074]

camluc — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 18:21:14 GMT

I just downloaded the most recent version of the binary. We have a costing spreadsheet that we use to build proposals. Unfortunately I cannot attach the file. It was created in Excel 2000. I opened it up in 2007 and saved as a 2007 xlsx file. When opening it, I get the error "File contains corrupted data". I can open the xlsx file in Excel 2007 fine with no issues. I think the problem is that certain areas of some of the sheets have restrictions by Excel password protection. I took the same file from Excel 2000, removed protection, saved to XML spreadsheet format and then to Excel 2007 format and it opened as it should in my code. Am I right to assume this error is a password protection issue? Most of the cells are writable, the formulas are what are protected.

We also have an exception with SpreadsheetDocument.Open(fileName, true). Our temporary solution is to open the file in Excel, save it in the newest format. This way, we can continue coding. No permanent solution yet.

Commented Issue: Apostrophe in Cell Value String causes an Exception [31571]

rupello — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 17:35:24 GMT

setting the Value property of a Cell to a string that contains an apostrophe causes an XPathException:

See the following code:
FileInfo newFile = new FileInfo(@"test.xlsx");
using (ExcelPackage xlPackage = new ExcelPackage(newFile))
{
ExcelWorksheet worksheet = xlPackage.Workbook.Worksheets.Add("Test");
worksheet.Cell(1,1).Value = "F'oo"; // throws a System.Xml.XPath.XPathExcpetion -> {"'//d:si[d:t='F'oo']' has an invalid token."}
xlPackage.Save();
}

Bern,
I'm posting a response to your 2 year old comment to an even older post. Your post was very beneficial to me, even though I don't use ExcelPackage. I wrote and maintain a custom report engine web service that uses the OpenXml SDK, and yesterday I started wrestling with this problem (well, wrestling more with VS 08, remote debugging and Microsoft symbols). Option 2 from your comment is working like a champ. 8) Thanks!

When changing a value of a cell in the runtime which is a part of another formula cell the calculation is not updated in the formula cell. for example:
if there are a total cell C3 which get its value from A1+B1 when I the value of A1 is changed in the runtime the total cell C3 does not change.

I guess that's normal because I understand ExcelPackage is only for Office Open XML format; that is Office 2007 and 2010. (Files with .xlsx extension, not .xls).

Commented Issue: Support "date" data type in cells [7251]

SVal — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 11:47:09 GMT

Change ExcelCell class to provide support for the "date" data type.
Comments: ** Comment from web user: SVal **

Hi, I have followed SoerenNielsen and jimharte guides and amended ExcelCell class to support date format. As I was doing that it turned out I also had to amend slightly ExcelWorkbook class. Excel started moaning about missing tags in styles.xml file. The code covers all my needs but if you need more feel free to change it :)

Commented Issue: Excel Cell Styles [21845]

phyoe2004 — Wed, 13 Oct 2010 11:28:57 GMT

A few people have asked for style in Excel Cells and nobody have really come up with a solution so I have done some work to get it done. I have unfortunately not been able to complete it because of a lack of time, but I have decided to post it here for the people interested.

Thusfar, Fills, borders and fonts can be added to some extent. At this stage I only make use of arg colours because of the complexity involved to add support for the other options available.

Have a look at what I have done and see if you can use it and/or help me complete it.

Feel free to contact me should you have questions/suggestions...

Regards,

Marais

Hello Marais,

When I tried to debug on more deep, I face this error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." When he tried to save the ExcelWorkBook. Please give me an idea to continue. I attached error page.

Hello Marais,

Thanks for your sample files. But I still cannot manage to run your application. Because when I tried to generate a file I face this error "Method not found: 'OfficeOpenXml.ExcelStyles OfficeOpenXml.ExcelWorkbook.get_Styles()'.". Can you please complete it and upload it or let me know it? Cause I also would like to use yours.

Commented Issue: Problem with decimal numbers [23424]

AirJOI — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 10:08:16 GMT

I'm opening the file that has a 5.1 (or 5,1 - depanding on regional settings) in a cell. When calling worksheet.Cell(7, 5).Value I expect to receive "5.1", whereas I receive "5.0999999999999996". For my current project it is a symbol that may have a form of a alpha-numeric string, but may also include some special characters like . or , and I would like to read it as string just as it was originally entered. Is that possible?
