Hi!

I want to import specific cells of an Excel file to specific cells of a datagridview.

I followed many tutorials here that import Excel tables, but as I want only specific cells in specific locations of the datagridview, I adapted the code.

Instead of: DataGridView1.DataSource = dt; I did: dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].Value = dt; but it doesn’t work.

Can anyboby help me please?

Thank you.


Here is the code:

string constr = @"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + textBox1.Text + @";Extended Properties=""Excel 12.0 Macro;HDR=YES;ImportMixedTypes=Text;TypeGuessRows=0""";

           OleDbConnection con = new OleDbConnection(constr);

           //specific cell 1 - product "code"
           OleDbDataAdapter sda = new OleDbDataAdapter("Select * From [ARTIGOS$A" + textBox3.Text + ":A" + textBox3.Text + "]", con);
           //specific cell 2 - product "description"
           OleDbDataAdapter sdb = new OleDbDataAdapter("select * From [ARTIGOS$B" + textBox3.Text + ":B" + textBox3.Text + "]", con);
           //specific cell 3 - product "price"
           OleDbDataAdapter sdc = new OleDbDataAdapter("Select * From [ARTIGOS$I" + textBox3.Text + ":I" + textBox3.Text + "]", con);

           DataTable dt = new DataTable();
           DataTable dt2 = new DataTable();
           DataTable dt3 = new DataTable();

           sda.Fill(dt);
           sdb.Fill(dt2);
           sdc.Fill(dt3);

           dataGridView1.Rows.Add();
           dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].Value = dt;
           dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[1].Value = dt2;
           dataGridView1.Rows.Add();
           dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[2].Value = textBox2.Text;
           dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[3].Value = dt3;
