Open XML SDK 2.0 August CTP, Videos, and 50+ Open XML Code Samples

I am also glad to announce that yesterday we published 50+ Open XML code samples packaged as Visual Studio code snippets. The code samples were created by Ken Getz as an update to the previous Open XML Visual Studio 2005 code snippets released a couple years ago. The previous snippets provided samples on manipulating document parts and packages using the System.IO.Packaging namespace. This new set provides more code samples that show how to manipulate document parts and packages using the Open XML SDK 2.0. The snippets were tested and work well with the August CTP released this week.

You can download the snippets here:

https://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=78bea298-a3f9-44cf-bde0-b4f30dc986df&displaylang=en

The snippets in this download use the Open XML SDK 2.0 to accomplish many tasks involving Microsoft Excel 2007, Microsoft PowerPoint 2007, and Microsoft Word 2007 documents.

You can use the enclosed code snippets with the Microsoft Visual Studio® 2008 Code Snippet Manager. Each snippet provides unique functionality that you can reuse within an application. This download provides snippets written in Microsoft Visual Basic.NET® and Microsoft C#® development languages.

Here’s a list of all the snippets included in this package:

I have a question about: InsertCellInWorksheet I have found that if you get the cells out of row order (ie A4 before A1) then Excel throws an error when opening the resulting xlsx file. I think that the snippet needs to make sure that the row is inserted in the correct place just as it does for the Cell. Or am I missing something? I am writing directly from a memorystream to a Sharepoint CopyInto web service, so it is possible that the WorkSheet.save function is doing some final sorting that I am not triggering. Here is how I modified the snippet to work: // If the worksheet does not contain a row with the specified row index, insert one. var theRow = sheetData.Elements<Row>(). Where(r => r.RowIndex.Value >= rowNumber). OrderBy(r => r.RowIndex.Value) .FirstOrDefault(); if (theRow != null && theRow.RowIndex > rowNumber) { nextRow = theRow; theRow = null; } if (theRow == null) { theRow = new Row(); theRow.RowIndex = rowNumber; if (nextRow == null) { sheetData.Append(theRow); } else { sheetData.InsertBefore(theRow, nextRow); } }

private XmlDocument GetXmlDocumentFromString() { XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.Load(Server.MapPath(Request.ApplicationPath + "/ContentXml.xml")); string xmlString = doc.OuterXml.ToString(); StringReader reader = new StringReader(xmlString); XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument(); xmlDoc.Load(reader); return xmlDoc; }
