在WinRT平台中使用C＃导入电子表格并处理数据

Question

I am developing an application which primarily imports spreadsheet reads the data and manipulates it. I was googling all day, unable to find a way to read data from excel files. It would be great if I could get some help to do the required.

Information : I am developing Windows Store app using C#/XAML.

Reference libs/apps which read excel :

Answer 1

If you look for a free open source solution, I used in several projects exceldatareader from codeplex lib, very simple and easy to use.

It depends only by SharpZipLib, I think that you have only to recompile both projects as portable libs to make it work on WinRT.

If you're working with .xlsx files there's always Open XML SDK which you can get from NuGet as well. Here 'sa bunch of tutorials to get you started. Unfortunately the really nice wrapper library ClosedXML doesn't work with Windows Store apps.

There's also a commercial component available, XlsIO from Syncfusion , which you could try out. I don't have any first hand experience with it.

Code provided by VT.CrazyAppy works fine for reading & parsing simple spread sheet file. The code snippet is static , I am working on it to make it more generic.will post the code once I done with that.

Note : The code will provide a mechanism to read a simple spread sheet file and return them as K,V pair. You can modify it to suit your need.
