Upload and Display Excel File Content in GridView Using Asp.Net

Upload and Display Excel File Content in GridView Using Asp.Net

In this post we will learn how to Upload and Display Excel File Content in GridView Using Asp.Net. Earlier we had discussed How to Import XML data into Gridview. Here we simply upload excel file(.xls, .xlsx) and then upload it to server, finally it will be displayed on gridview control. Here we have also added one feature i.e. we want to display header of excel file in gridview or not.

Create asp.net project then drag and drop the file upload and gridview control into aspx page and format the gridview control as like below. On Upload button click event we have written code to import data from excel to gridview.

Design View:

<%@ Page Title="Home Page" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Site.master" AutoEventWireup="true"
    CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>

<asp:Content ID="HeaderContent" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="HeadContent">
</asp:Content>
<asp:Content ID="BodyContent" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent">
    <h2>Welcome to ASP.NET!

        </asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem Text="No" Value="No"></asp:ListItem>
    </asp:RadioButtonList>

    <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" Width="100%" HeaderStyle-BackColor="Gray"
