Edit existing Excel file C# npoi
Well, it looks like HSSFWorkbook constructor closes filestream after reading from it.
Simpliest and straightforward solution - open file for reading, create HSSFWorkbook, do what you want in that workbook, and then open file again for writing and write to it.
It is safe to use hssfwb outside of using scope because HSSFWorkbook itself does not holds reference to file from which it was read (as long as I see it in NPOI sources).
So your code could look like:
HSSFWorkbook hssfwb;
using (FileStream file = new FileStream(@"c:\temp\testfile.xls", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
{
hssfwb = new HSSFWorkbook(file);
file.Close();
}
ISheet sheet = hssfwb.GetSheetAt(0);
IRow row = sheet.GetRow(0);
sheet.CreateRow(row.LastCellNum);
ICell cell = row.CreateCell(row.LastCellNum);
cell.SetCellValue("test");
for (int i = 0; i < row.LastCellNum; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine(row.GetCell(i));
}
using (FileStream file = new FileStream(@"c:\temp\testfile.xls", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Write))
{
hssfwb.Write(file);
file.Close();
}
I find NPOI very usefull for working with Excel Files, here is my implementation with version 2 (Comments are in Spanish, sorry for that):
This Method Opens an Excel (both xls or xlsx) file and converts it into a DataTable.
/// <summary>Abre un archivo de Excel (xls o xlsx) y lo convierte en un DataTable.
/// LA PRIMERA FILA DEBE CONTENER LOS NOMBRES DE LOS CAMPOS.</summary>
/// <param name="pRutaArchivo">Ruta completa del archivo a abrir.</param>
/// <param name="pHojaIndex">Número (basado en cero) de la hoja que se desea abrir. 0 es la primera hoja.</param>
private DataTable Excel_To_DataTable(string pRutaArchivo, int pHojaIndex)

This Second method does the oposite, saves a DataTable into an Excel File, yeah it can either be xls or the new xlsx, your choise!

With this 2 methods you can Open an Excel file, load it into a DataTable, do your modifications and save it back into an Excel file.
Hope you guys find this usefull.
