Web Forms :: Does Exporting DataGridView To Excel Has Limitations Of Columns Or Column Types
May 7, 2015
I am trying to export my Model to an Excel sheet. I have 31 fields out of which only 29 are exported. Among the 3 fields that I am not able to export 2 are of type Enum and one of DateTime. Their is another DateTime field also, but that is exported properly. Here are few fields of the model :
[EnumDataType(typeof(Suffix)), Display(Name = "Suffix *")]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Suffix is Required")]
public Suffix NameSuffix { get; set; }
[EnumDataType(typeof(InquiryStatus)), Display(Name = "Status")]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Status is Required")]
[Code] ....
Among the 4 fields above, NameSuffix, Inquiry_Status & FollowUpDate are not exported. InquiryDate is exported.

I am able to save excel sheet from GridView perfectly. However, I need to add one custom column, which will be URL of a file on sever, I am not allowed to add URLs directly in the table (as per company's development policies). I tried pulling URL from web.config however I am not sure where to add that in the following code
I have a bit of an interesting problem where I need to create an Excel data dump from some data in the database, but rather than it being something simple I have some complex data to merge, below is an example of the data that I have to deal with.
RecordId |QuestionName | Answer 1 |Your Name? | Bob 1 |Your Title? | The Builder 2 |Favorite Movie | The Matrix 2 |Favorite Car | Mustang
What I need in the end is the following
RecordId|Record Name |Date |Cost | | | | 1 |Test Entry | 1/1/2010 |2.0 |Your Name? | Bob | Your Title? | The Builder 2 |Test Entry2 | 1/1/2010 |20.25 |Favorite Move | The Matrix | Favorite Car | Mustang
Now I'm using SQL Server 2005 for the reporting and ASP.NET 3.5 (C#) for the application. I'm looking for the best way to do this. The number of items in "tblRandomInfo" is variable, and can have as many as 20-30 Q/A pairs per record. I cannot easily do a pivot, even a dynamic pivot due to the nature of the data.
Edit.A solution is valid either on the SQL Server or C# side. But note that information in tblRandomInfo can contain line breaks.
Now the same code when I copy it in my project having masterpage . there is no compiler error but it is genereating excel file withno data in it but in fact there is data in the grid view at runtime.
Exporting the GridView to various file types. I have got the PDF working great and also want to add Excel. When I use the code I get a message that the file I am trying to open is a different file format from the extension I am trying to open. If i click OK it opens and alls is fine. Trying to get rid of this errors so customers and sales staff doesn't see it. Excel is version 2010.
I have a situation where I need to freeze first two colums in a datagrid view control on my asp.net app. In windows forms there is a proprty called Freeze which can be enabled / disabled. How can I freeze first two colums in a data grid view control on my ASP.NET page.
I've got an .rdlc report which I print from my .net app (C# Visual Studio 2005), where I use a RemoteReportPrinter object. I give it as parameters the server name, report name, report parameters, etc. Works fine. My question is, I would live to do an analagous export of that report to Excel. Set it up exactly the same, but have it export to Excel rather than print, probably using some other type of object than RemoteReportPrinter.
I'm exporting a Gridview to excel. I get all the gridview header and content in excel in addition to that i need to add a header text like report name in header of the excel sheet with line break in header.
I tried the solution in this link [URL] by adding
Table.Caption = "Header Text" Table.CaptionAlign = TableCaptionAlign.Top but i get error Reference to a non shared member requires an object reference.
I have a project in vb with a gridview in a multiview and i want to save in a workbook excel the gridview displayed data. I have read many articles but in the end i have downloaded the code from URL...and i adapted for my code. The problem is that when i press the ExporttoExcel button it's exporting only this...I cannot figure out that is the problem.
I am having datagridview control with dynamically added BoundField columns.I want to have tetxboxes in each cell of the gridview so taht user will enter data in gridview textboxes and at last on button click it will be saved in database.
is there any way that i could export multiple tables already formatted into multiple excel sheets. I know how to export data to multiple sheets through dataset while looping through tables, rows and columns and then add styles.
But I really want to export formatted html tables each into seperate sheet
On two of my web forms I have the ability to export a gridview to an excel file. On my local machine. it works. So when I click an image button it gives me the option of opening or saving a gridview as Excel.
However, when I run on the web server. It does not give me the option to open or save, it just opens the gridview as an excel document when the button is clicked.
Even stranger: I have this running on two separate forms. On one form when it opens the gridview as an Excel file it includes a tool bar, so that If a user wishes they could do a 'file', 'save'; However the other one does not have a tool bar?
Ideally I would like them to get the prompt like on the local machine, to open or save.
URL...I now want to turn off all hyperlinks that are in the gridview. How do I do that with this code?
Button on page<asp:Button ID="Button2" runat="server" Text="Export to Excel" OnClick="BtnExportExcel_Click" Font-Names="Arial" style="text-align: center" /> Code behind: Public Overloads Overrides Sub VerifyRenderingInServerForm(ByVal control As Control) ' Verifies that the control is rendered End Sub otected Sub BtnExportExcel_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
The file you are trying to open is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?
When yes is clicked it opens in excel but in some other format I think for I cannot AUTOSUM or sum the values result always as zero for numbers appears as text as " 222" . even if i try to format cells with numbers it does not works.
I have a report which is created using a .rdlc. And populated using a List object. The report when exported to excel has a problem. The numeric colums show up as text and the tooltip in excel says "The number in this cell is formatted as text or preceded by an apostrophe". How can I get the number to show up as numeric?
This is an ASP.NET web app built using VS2008. I created a standalone class with a method that exports the entire page, text fields, gridviews, images, everything to an Excel worksheet. It works fine. When I dropped the same class in another web app and tried to call it from a page, I get this error message:
