I have this code that I know that it works fast

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application xlexcel;
Microsoft.Office         


        

Answer 1

It seems that I found a solution using interop and EPPlus. I used the code above only to copy the values in Excel and then use this code below (EPPlus code) to take the format from dataGridView. This code depends or what you want to take from the dataGridView. In this code below I wanted to take the WrapText from the first row and the background colors from each written cell

private void FinalizeWorkbook(DataTableReportParam reportParam, DataGridView dataGridViewControl)
{
    FileInfo newFile = new FileInfo(reportParam.FileName);
    ExcelPackage pck = new ExcelPackage(newFile);
    IWorksheet worksheet = pck.Workbook.Worksheets[1];

    // wrap text and color the crashes with problems (header)
    for (int col = 1; col <= worksheet.Dimension.End.Column; col++)
    {
        worksheet[1, col].WrapText = true;
        worksheet[1, col].AutofitRows();
        if (String.Compare(dataGridViewControl[col - 1, 0].Style.BackColor.Name, "0") != 0)
            worksheet[1, col].CellStyle.Color = dataGridViewControl[col - 1, 0].Style.BackColor;
    }

    // color the cells
    for (int row = 2; row <= worksheet.Dimension.End.Row; row++)
    {
        for (int col = 1; col <= worksheet.Dimension.End.Column; col++)
        {
            if (String.Compare(dataGridViewControl[col - 1, row - 1].Style.BackColor.Name, "0") != 0)
                worksheet[row, col].CellStyle.Color = dataGridViewControl[col - 1, row - 1].Style.BackColor;
        }
    }
    //save and dispose
    pck.Save();
    pck.Dispose();
}
