Which dll or library can be used to create the excelsheet which is not of a particular format such that a template can be used in this context. While the rows and columns may be merged. Number of columns are not fixed.
For example: In the first row column 1 and 2 are merged while in the second row the 2 rows of second column are merged. Say first row is containing 5 columns while the second row is of 4 columns.
Interop is not desired as the system running the program may not have Microsoft office installed with it.
Any suggestions would be a great helping.
There are several options out there (free and commercial):
- OpenXML 2.0 from MS (free)
- EPPlus (free)
- NPOI (free)
- Flexcel (commercial)
- Aspose.Cells (commercial)
- SpreadsheetGear (commercial)
Another option (though not really recommended) is to generate a HTML file with specific tags - supported by Excel as per MS documentation http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/Aa155477%28office.10%29.aspx .
