New Post: DateTime-Format with /

Hi,
first: THANK YOU a lot for sharing this library! This library is just awesome!

i'm using sheet.Cell(2, 1).InsertData(IEnumerable<T>) for adding cell-informations. Some of the Cells are DateTime. We force all DateTimes to be like 31/10/2008.

so i added the following code to modify after the insert the DateFormat:
foreach (var cell in sheet.Range(1, 1, objectlist.Count() + 1, headers.Count).CellsUsed(c => c.DataType == XLCellValues.DateTime))
            {
                cell.Style.DateFormat.Format = "dd/MM/yyyy";
            }
this works well if i use "dd-MM-yyyy". But when i'll use dd/MM/yyyy, then it will be 12.01.2010 (like my current OS region info is).

Is there a way to force those '/'`?

Thank you for any tips...

Created Issue: Data Validation [8628]

I've been searching for a solution to my issue for a while so if I have overlooked a solution, please forgive me.

I am trying to set data validation on a column and simply want to pass a comma delimited list for validation. I am attempting to recreate an Excel report that has this functionality embedded.

```
Dim dataV As ClosedXML.Excel.IXLDataValidation = Nothing
dataV = ws.Column(3).AsRange().SetDataValidation()
dataV.List("CD, SD, MW")
dataV.IgnoreBlanks = True
dataV.InCellDropdown = True
dataV.ShowInputMessage = True
dataV.ShowErrorMessage = True
dataV.ErrorStyle = ClosedXML.Excel.XLErrorStyle.Stop
```

The issue is that ClosedXML is generating a formula (with =) in front of the string (=CD, SD, MW). Excel doesn't like this. How can I generate my list without the "="?

Great product BTW...Thanks!

Created Issue: Null Reference on Loading File created by OpenXML [8631]

I've managed to create a very basic macro enabled spreadsheet via OpenXML (merging a VBA macro from another spreadsheet along the way).

The generated spreadsheet opens up correctly in Excel - the macro is present, together with the data I've put in there.

However, when I try to use ClosedXML to open the file, I get a "NullReferenceException was unhandled" error message appear.

Here's the code for opening the file:

var nwb = new XLWorkbook("C:\\Temp\\ExcelTest.xlsm");

I've attached the file.

Any help would be appreciated...

New Post: Convert range to table, treat all rows as data rows

I need to read data from an Excel file into a DataTable, and the Excel file may not include column headers. I have tried using IXLRange.AsTable() as well as IXLRange.CreateTable(), and apparently both methods treat the first row in the range as a header row. That first row needs to be included in the table. Is there a more appropriate method I should use?

Thanks in advance.

New Post: Row Adjust to Contents and text wrap

Hi, Iv read all discussions about this problem but stil cant get it.

Situation: Cell value is the string of dynamic length. Column width must stay unchanged to fit the page. So i need to adjust row height.

Problem: If i set wrap text to true and then call adjust to contents, row height increases, but not enough to fit all text. Excel row autofit works perfectly and increases row height as it needed.

Thanks a lot!

When you say DataTable, do you mean System.Data.DataTable so you can use it in a DataGrid control? While ClosedXML can take a DataTable or DataSet or even a List of objects and automatically create an Excel worksheet out of it, there is nothing I know of that would do the reverse. It would be a nice feature if it could. Even the methods CreateTable() and AsTable() do not create DataTable objects. They create IXLTable objects.
As far as I know, in order to do what you want, you could iterate through the range and build your DataTable one row at a time.
You could probably create a LINQ expression on the your IXLRange object that would return a IENumerable list of structures.
That would be a pretty succinct and classy piece of coding. I'd love to see a sample of that code put into the documentation area.

I am routinely creating Lists of objects representing data rows. I would love to see an enhancement where I could pass an object into ClosedXML where the properties of the object had the same names as columns in the Excel sheet and have ClosedXML automatically fill in the data fields and return me a list of the objects. Even if it would do it one row at a time, that would be heaven.
If that exists you could define your DataRow and then fill your DataTable.Rows collection with the rows from the Excel sheet.
// Get a list of objects from the Excel sheet
List<MyObject> myList = new List<MyObject>();
foreach ( IXLRow row in workSheet.RangeUsed(false).Rows() )
{
    MyObject myObject = new MyObject();
    myList.Add(row.FillObject(myObject));
}
Wouldn't that be grand! Too bad it doesn't exist yet.

This project needs a new caretaker!

As much as I hate to admit it, I can't give this project the love it deserves. If you have the time and want to take care of ClosedXML then send me a message (People tab). Big thanks to everyone who has contributed over the years.

Project Description
ClosedXML makes it easier for developers to create Excel 2007/2010 files. It provides a nice object oriented way to manipulate the files (similar to VBA) without dealing with the hassles of XML Documents. It can be used by any .NET language like C# and Visual Basic (VB).

Request #1: If you like this project please make an entry about it in your blog. The more people who use it the better it gets.

Request #2: If you ever find yourself thinking "I wish this API allowed me to do 'this' easier", please let me know. There are only so many scenarios I can think of for using this API. I'm very interested in how you work, how you use this API, and what can be done to make your life easier.

What can you do with this?

ClosedXML allows you to create Excel 2007/2010 files without the Excel application. The typical example is creating Excel reports on a web server.

If you've ever used the Microsoft Open XML Format SDK you know just how much code you have to write to get the same results as the following 4 lines of code.

            var workbook = new XLWorkbook();
            var worksheet = workbook.Worksheets.Add("Sample Sheet");
            worksheet.Cell("A1").Value = "Hello World!";
            workbook.SaveAs("HelloWorld.xlsx");



Something more elaborate:

The Documentation page has an example of how to create the following table (Showcase) as well as many other examples:

Created Issue: Error when then formula starts with a "+" [8657]

Today I encounter an issue when the cell has the formula that starts with a "+" (=+'Another Worksheet'!D48).
The following code gives the error:
CalEngine.cs > GetToken() > line 664
```
// identifiers (functions, objects) must start with alpha or underscore
if (!isLetter && c != '_' && (_idChars == null || _idChars.IndexOf(c) < 0))
{
Throw("Identifier expected.");
}
```
I think you're missing this one case here, could you please check?

I found some threads that end with "...and we will implement it" - but they are old. Any clues or news? I see the classes and methods there to create Pivot Tables, but my attempts at unravelling the steps have ended up with workbooks that open up in Excel to the friendly error "we will delete the pivot table for you if you wish because it doesn't work." I don't see any way of specifying the row and column source other than by string name, but it obviously doesn't work.
