I declared a DataGrid in a ASP.
NET View and I'd like to generate some C# code to populate said DataGrid with an Excel spreadsheet (.xlsx). Here's the code I have:
<asp:DataGrid id="DataGrid1" runat="server"/>
<script language="C#" runat="server">
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string connString = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\FileName.xlsx;Extended Properties=""Excel 12.0;HDR=YES;""";
// Create the connection object
OleDbConnection oledbConn = new OleDbConnection(connString);
try
{
// Open connection
oledbConn.Open();
// Create OleDbCommand object and select
data from worksheet Sheet1
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM [sheetname$]", oledbConn);
// Create new OleDbDataAdapter
OleDbDataAdapter oleda = new OleDbDataAdapter();
oleda.SelectCommand = cmd;
// Create a DataSet which will hold the
data extracted from the worksheet.
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
// Fill the DataSet from the
data extracted from the worksheet.
oleda.Fill(ds, "Something");
// Bind the
data to the GridView
DataGrid1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0].DefaultView;
DataGrid1.DataBind();
}
catch
{
}
finally
{
// Close connection
oledbConn.Close();
}
}
</script>
When I run the website, nothing really happens. What gives?
