LightCells API

[Jaganlal]

Hi,

I want to read one designer using lightcells API and get values from database and fill the values into designer workbook.

I want read and write value in excel with Lightcells API to reduce the memory usage.

I have attached the data file and designer with this Post.

I used like this only for read and write in designer

C#

Workbook data = new Workbook(myDir + “Data.xlsx”);

Cells cells = data.Worksheets[0].Cells;

//Export data to DataTable
DataTable table = data.Worksheets[0].Cells.ExportDataTable(0, 0, cells.MaxDataRow +1 , cells.MaxDataColumn +1, true);

//Rename the DataTable name to match the Smart Markers

table.TableName = “source”;

//Create WorkbookDesigner object

WorkbookDesigner designer = new WorkbookDesigner();

//Open the template file (which contains Smart Markers)

designer.Workbook = new Workbook(myDir + “designer.xlsx”);

//Set the DataTable as the data source

designer.SetDataSource(table);

//Process the Smart Markers to fill the data into the worksheet

designer.Process(true);

//Calculate all formulas

designer.Workbook.CalculateFormula();

//Save the result

designer.Workbook.Save(myDir + “output.xlsx”, SaveFormat.Xlsx);


Tell how to change this in Lightcells API. I check your sample. Please help me in this process

Best Regards,

Hi Jaganlal ,

We have evaluated your issue/ requirements a bit. Well, we might not support this feature at the moment or even in near future. To keep settings and formattings for those expanded rows/cells with data fetched from datasource, many cells/rows/columns are inserted into the worksheet globally and dynamically, I am afraid, this situation is not suitable for LightCells mode.

Thank you.
